While the Lake Geneva area is perhaps best known for its summer diversions, there are plenty of fun winter activities to keep locals busy and draw visitors year-round. Unlike other, strictly seasonal tourist locations, nearly all of Lake Geneva’s restaurants and shops remain open year-round, creating a fun day trip or winter getaway opportunity. On top of that, the Wisconsin winter weather creates opportunities for a different kind of fun, not available in the warmer months.
