The Lake Geneva lakefront is beautiful any time of the year

Tuesday, September 18th, 2012

The Lake Geneva lakefront is beautiful any time of the year: whether the sun is shining upon it or setting on it, whether the warmth encourages you to jump in or the cold beckons you to crack the ice, the lakefront is always a welcome sight.  While visiting Lake Geneva be sure you stay downtown so you can enjoy the beauty of the lakefront.

You will find several hotels within walking distance from the lakefront and several restaurants to sit, relax and look out over the lake while you dine.  Some favorite lakefront restaurants of mine are Popeye’s on Lake Geneva, Gino’s East Pizza, and Scutttlebutte’s.  These are all within quick and easy walking distance from The Mill Creek Hotel.  When you stay at Mill Creek Hotel you can park your car in our covered parking and walk all over downtown Lake Geneva, WI.

School is back in session and the calendar says that Autumn in near, so now is a great time to book your Lake Geneva Getaway.  The colors are absolutely beautiful in Fall and the Lake Geneva Cruise Lines are still welcoming guests, so seize the opportunity to take in all the beauty.

There is still much to do in Lake Geneva: Fall is a perfect time for a Horse Drawn Carriage ride through downtown Lake Geneva, also a great way to take in the fall colors.  The carriage rides begin right near The Riveria on the lakefront, the perfect backdrop for a romantic evening.  Take off your shoes and walk along the beach, take some photos at sunset and make a memory.

Autumn at The Mill Creek Hotel in Lake Geneva, WI

The Mill Creek Hotel is located in the heart of downtown Lake Geneva, just steps from the lakefront.  Plan your escape in the heart of it all online at www.MillCreekHotel.com or reserve your stay at 877-MCH-LGWI.

Come to downtown Lake Geneva, WI. and see for yourself how beautiful the lakefront is any time of year.
