About Grand Geneva Resort & Spa

The Grand Geneva Resort & Spa is a sprawling 1,300-acre, AAA Four Diamond property, home to 355 rooms and 29 new villas. It's a four-season destination with the Mountain Top ski and snowboard facility and the 225-room Timber Ridge Lodge & Waterpark, an indoor-outdoor waterpark. Sandwiched between Milwaukee and Chicago, Grand Geneva invites city slickers to enjoy the laid-back lake life for a while. It started out as the Lake Geneva Playboy Club, part of Hugh Hefner’s empire. That chapter closed in 1981. Eventually, the property rebranded as a luxury golf resort in 1994 with fine dining and conference facilities for corporate clients. The Highlands and The Brute roll over hills and water hazards, creating distinct theaters for challenging and memorable golf. The WELL Spa + Salon, located in a separate fitness building, offers more than 65 treatments and services.

Cart path only

The staff said they might have a hole or 2 that was cart path only. I understand rain and when needed not allowing carts off the path is fine. I think there was 8 holes cart path only which made the round hard for me who is in shape and run a lot. With how hilly it is my Mom on Mother’s Day was not able to play most of the back half of the course. The issues was of the 8 closed 1 maybe 2 needed to be cart path only. If that was the case I would understand why the grounds keep closed them.

Challenging course!

Good track! Winds were 20+ mph which makes this course very tough.
