No. But I was home a few weeks ago (near Milwaukee) and found out you can take a boat tour around the lake which was the location of the first Playboy club.

Lake Geneva is notoriously busy on weekends with exceptionally LARGE boats. For the most part, it's a lot of wake and a lot of traffic from about nine am through the rest of the day....

not a slam to my brothers to the south but it is almost all Illinois traffic and boating rules be damned for the most part. An extremely busy lake and far to few places to put in. Lots of Large fast boats, one person was killed here last year, run over after a fall from skiing. i live 7 miles from there and will never venture out on that lake. Delavan is a much better choice for fishing, until dusk than maybe try lake Geneva. Or very early morning possibly 4:30 am

Any one have experience here?

Awesome lake,lots of old wooden boats and large estates on the lake. Never had a problem with waves or boat traffic. Williams bay and fontana have nice boat launches.

Lake Geneva is OK if you go out early. But beware of people renting boats! And beware of people water skiing. They wil lgo right into your path with the skier.
