Defined by its iconic wooden A-frame architecture, this sprawling harbor retreat provides a lively maritime backdrop on the western tip of Geneva Lake. Couples gather on landscaped harbor lawns framed by docking sailboats before dancing beneath the cathedral wood beams of the Great Hall or airy lakeside pavilions.
