Geneva National? Geneva National!

Posted to Geneva National, Theresa Larsen

You know it dawned on me that I was writing about Geneva National but many people just don’t know the neighborhood. I do. I live here. Geneva National is situated between downtown Lake Geneva and Williams Bay with the entrance off of Hwy 50. Originally it was the estate of the Crane Plumbing family and the Hunt Club Restaurant was originally their hunt club. I can only imagine what it was like to own this amount of acreage (1800) in the Lake Geneva area during the last century and I certainly don’t recollect knowing of this estate as a child. Pretty amazing. There are high points on this property where you can stand and overlook Lake Geneva and Lake Como. Currently, this is a residential community built around 3 premiere golf courses and golf is not what everyone does. In fact, only about a third of the folks play golf but everyone enjoys the beauty it provides. Just a note, the Geneva National Golf Club is run separately from the community and so it is an amenity you can choose to use or not. This is a neighborhood so the age mix includes school buses, professionals, retired folks that live here 6, 8, 10 months of the year and then we have what I call my ‘permanent part-timer’s’! This group includes everyone that is here on the weekends! It is so easy to bop up here and spend a few days and all animals are welcome. Geneva National has paw prints everywhere. How can you live here? There are so many options and so many price points! There’s new construction, resale, condos, single family homes and land. It just depends on what you want to have.
