Valentine’s Day in Lake Geneva

Thursday, February 9th, 2012

So Valentine’s Day is quickly approaching and just like New Year’s Eve , it has its ups and downs.  Perhaps you really get in to the whole idea of Valentine’s Day… romance, passion, Cupid’s arrow and all; or maybe you’ve never really bought in to the whole idea and you’re happy when it’s over.  This year why not plan a getaway either way.

If there is a special someone and you’d like to spend Valentine’s Day celebrating together come to The Mill Creek Hotel in Lake Geneva and we can set you up with a lovely romance package.

If you’re just not in to Valentine’s Day this year, I’ll bet you’re not alone.  Why not gather some friends and come to The Mill Creek Hotel in Lake Geneva!  We can help you find some great spa services or a fun place to watch some Basketball.

You know you need a getaway….we’d love to have you visit The Mill Creek Hotel.  Come enjoy a full condo suite complete with a fireplace.  Come enjoy the indoor pool and hot tub.  Park in our underground garage and just walk everywhere else you want to go.  Pick up some provisions, you’ll have plenty of space in the kitchen and dining room.  If you must…bring your laptop-we have free WI-FI.

Plan your Escape in the Heart of it All.

The Sculptors are sculpting

Thursday, February 2nd, 2012

Lake Geneva Winterfest is HERE!  Reserve your suite at The Mill Creek Hotel and you will find yourself in the heart of it all.

The giant blocks of snow have been delivered and the Sculptors are ready to sculpt.

The groundhog says 6 more weeks of winter and if it continues like this…I’m all for it.  No matter the weather though, Lake Geneva is always to place to be.  You will find activities happening all year long.

Last year we had about 2 feet of snow to navigate and although treacherous, it was also kind of fun.  We don’t have the snow this year and that makes it so much easier to get around and enjoy all the sights of our lovely village.

Take a look at the Winterfest schedule and call 877-MCH-LGWI for the most up to date Mill Creek Hotel availability.
