You can almost feel the stress melt away as you drive up the winding road to this award-winning AAA Four Diamond all-season resort in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. Just 80 miles from Chicago, Grand Geneva Resort and Spa feels like a million miles from Michigan Avenue. After all, this was once home to the Playboy Club Resort and they knew how to cater to guests\u2019 every whim.almost feel the stress melt away as you drive up the winding road to this award-winning AAA Four Diamond all-season resort in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. Just 80 miles from Chicago, Grand Geneva Resort and Spa feels like a million miles from Michigan Avenue. After all, this was once home to the Playboy Club Resort and they knew how to cater to guests\u2019 every whim.<\/p>\n

This Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired property features 355 guest rooms and suites, all of which include a\u00a0private balcony or patio with gorgeous views of the resort\u2019s lake and golf courses. Grand Geneva boasts a state-of-the-art WELL Spa + Salon, three-chair\/18 run ski hills and snowboard facility, award-winning restaurants, two championship golf courses, tennis courts, horseback riding, and an indoor water park.private balcony or patio with gorgeous views of the resort\u2019s lake and golf courses.

 <\/p>\n

Pampering and heart pumping at WELL<\/h3>\n

There is literally so much to do at WELL Spa and Salon, well, you could literally spend the entire day there. Get pampered from head to toe with a variety of relaxing and therapeutic treatments for body, hair, and nails. I recommend the WELL Spa Facial to leave your skin feeling nourished and smooth. Or, try a Farmhouse Fresh massage or an Aromatic Back Treatment. New is their Toes on Tap Pedicure,\u00a0which puts your hands on a Wisconsin Spotted Cow Beer, while your feet soak in a bath of citrus and hops. Play tennis, take a spinning class, and then head to the workout area. Are you game for the 35 ft. climbing wall? Enjoy yoga or Pilates? Keep up your routine on the latest fitness equipment or do laps in the indoor pool.<\/p>\n

The resort offers several dining venues from a quick bite to an exquisite meal. Ristorante Brissago is like a slice of Italy in the Midwest, named one of the top five romantic restaurants in Wisconsin by Open Table. Start your meal with imported Buffalo Mozzarella and vine-ripened tomatoes or Truffle Sachetti. The Handmade Guitar String Pasta (Tagliatelle con L\u2019Aragosta Lemirandi) is a very unique pasta dish. Also recommended is the Beef Tenderloin (Filletto Di Manzo). A grand way to experience the best of Brissago is their Chef Selected Four Courses for $44.several dining venues from a quick bite to an exquisite meal.

Geneva Chop House is their signature steak and seafood restaurant which serves dinner and Sunday Champagne Brunch. Feast on prime cuts of steak or veal with sumptuous sides. Recommended is the Roasted Beet Salad, Linz Heritage Reserve Rib Eye, or Salmon with Red Quinoa and Crispy Kale.prime cuts of steak or veal with sumptuous sides.

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/strong>Grand Experiences make memorable escapes<\/h3>\n

The resort has developed a series of Grand Experiences throughout the day and night that vary with the seasons to make your stay that much richer. I tried the DIY Spa Souvenirs and came home with facial scrubs and bath bombs! Paint and Sip, Playboy History with a Twist, Tasty Pastry, Lawn Scrabble, and Mixology are just a few of the good times awaiting you.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Adventure Center has it all<\/h3>\n

No matter what the season, there\u2019s always something fun going on at the Adventure Center. Winter brings 18 hills of skiing, cross country, or hiking the winding trails. Come summer, enjoy a guided hike, mountain biking, disc golf, sand volleyball, or try your arm at archery.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Splash!<\/h3>\n

Bring the family to Timber Ridge Lodge and Waterpark on the grounds of the Grand Geneva and take off down the Moose Mountain Falls. Or float down the lazy river. Large accommodations are perfect for families, complete with a kitchen and one or two bedrooms. Swim out to the outdoor pool, soak up the sun, or hang out in the arcade room. Then enjoy all the other amenities of the resort.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Cruise the lake<\/h3>\n

Walk downtown Lake Geneva and grab an ice cream cone or shop in one of the many boutiques. Take a ride on Lady on the Lake or hire a private boat from Lake Geneva Cruise Line to show you around. Hop on the U.S. Mailboat Tour and see how mail is delivered to the homes on the lake. ‘Ooh’ and ‘ahh’ over the mansions that line the shore and learn about famous millionaires like the Wrigleys and Pritzkers who\u2019ve made many boutiques.

Embers Terrace under the stars<\/h3>\n

At night, hang out at the Embers Terrace with its outdoor fireplace and comfy lounges. It\u2019s the perfect place for dessert, like Make-Your-Own S\u2019mores, as you gaze up to the starlit skies and plan your next escape to the Grand Geneva!<\/p>\n

No wheels? No worries. You can take the train from downtown Chicago to either Fox Lake or Harvard and UBER it to the resort. There’s also a shuttle from Grand Geneva to take you into town.<\/p>\n
