Take a long deep breath and kiss your stresses good-bye: this lovely, year-round resort town offers a laid-back atmosphere that lets you slowly unwind. Beach buffs can don their swimsuits and head for one of several beaches on seven-mile-long Geneva Lake, which also offers a plethora of water sports. Leisurely cruises on restored historic yachts and replicas of paddle wheel steamers carry passengers past stately lakefront summer mansions, including some Victorian estates. Landlubbers can take a self-guided hike around the perimeter of the lake, which stretches some 21 miles. Laid-back, however, doesn't mean there isn't plenty to do. Choose from museums, a water park for younger kids, the world's largest refracting telescope at Yerkes Observatory, entertainment at the Belfry Music Theatre or greyhound racing. Winter is even quieter but no less filled with fun. Head to The Mountain Top, a popular family ski spot, or choose from horseback riding, skating, ice boating, hayrides or sleigh rides. Whatever time of year you go, Lake Geneva will charm you.

Considered one of downtown Lake Geneva's most iconic bars. Thumbs Up is a local favorite serving visitors for more than 40 years. The bar features a wide variety of beers and specialty drinks including our famous lemon shake-ups and Wisconsin's legendary craft beer - Spotted Cow. For an unforgettable Wisconsin experience, make sure you and your friends get a picture with the famous Thumbs Up shot-ski!

Well what's not to love about this place. I have been going to Fat Cats since the early 80's and it's still the same with great people and a friendly staff. It's a bit of a dive but that's part of the charm. Music and drinks are fantastic. If you go to Fat Cats look for a guy nicknamed "Torch" and he is a bar back. He is a hoot and always ready for a shot - so be sure to get him a shot. Salute to Fat Cats and the wonderful staff.
