Cool adventures await at Grand Geneva Resort & Spa in beautiful Lake Geneva, Wisconsin.
The sign is unmistakable.
Naturally framed by the freshly fallen snow — and in picturesque harmony with the land around it — the words “Grand Geneva” adorn a sizable stone bastion. Yes, it is the name of the resort. But it is just as much a statement about this pristine winter paradise you have discovered. Everything really does seem grand, from the moment you pass through the welcoming walls of the elegant porte-cochère.
The winding road meanders tastefully through a scenic setting, just long enough to build quiet anticipation of the adventures that lie ahead in cozy seclusion.
You’ve arrived. This is winter on a grand scale.
Winter Carnival – Feb. 6
The season’s excitement shines brightest at Grand Geneva’s annual Winter Carnival, a full day of snowy fun for all ages. Ski lifts open at 9 a.m. and festivities kick off at 10 a.m. with an epic cross-country race. The hours that follow offer adventures aplenty, including toboggan races, tug of war, arts and crafts, snowman-building and more. The night ends with an unforgettable closing ceremony that includes sky lanterns, a torch light parade and a grand fireworks display.
Skiing and Snowboarding at The Mountain Top
Whether you choose to travel downhill by ski or by board, your adventure begins at The Mountain Top, a Burton-certified Learn to Ride center and the Midwest’s most family-friendly ski hill. With 18 exciting runs and a newly designed terrain park, The Mountain Top is a perfect environment for kiddos to get comfortable and anyone to freshen up their form.
More Wintery Ways to Move About
Every year at Grand Geneva, guests embrace the nostalgic delights of classic winter pastimes. Whether you opt for the signature thrill of the sledding hill or a charming visit to the ice-skating rink, this resort will allow you to enjoy your favorite cold-weather activities. Also popular are snowshoe and cross-country excursions, which allow adventurers of all ages to explore the property’s 1,300 beautiful acres.
A Warm Welcome
When it’s time to warm up, an entirely different world awaits indoors. After a full day on the slopes, shake the snow off your boots and settle in at Leinenkugel’s Mountain Top Lodge, where a cozy fire and a bite to eat are the perfect complement to your winter adventures. Meanwhile, you’ll find people thawing out in all sorts of relaxing ways throughout the resort — unwinding with a soothing massage at WELL Spa + Salon, taking a trip down the lazy river at Moose Mountain Falls Waterpark, savoring a hearty Italian meal at Ristoranté Brissago and, at the end of the day, getting a good night’s sleep in a comfortable bed.
Whether you’re coming for the Winter Carnival or just looking for a weekend getaway, Grand Geneva offers great overnight packages. After an action-packed day in the snow, we’ll make sure you have a cozy place to sleep tight for the night.
After all, winter is good. It’s time to make it grand.
