Geneva Lake is a body of freshwater in southeastern Wisconsin in Walworth county. On its shores are the cities of Lake Geneva, Fontana-on-Geneva-Lake, and the village of Williams Bay. Lakeshore attractions include Big Foot Beach State Park, Lake Geneva Yacht Club, Gordy's Restaurant, Aurora University, George Williams campus, and the Yerkes Observatory. Only used as a teaching observatory, the latter has been sold to a developer who will create a mixed-use development on the property to finance the observatory's continued operation.
The lake covers an area of approximately 8.14 square miles (21.17 square kilometres), has a maximum length of 7.5 miles (12 km), mean depth of 62.7 feet (19.1 m) and a maximum depth of 144 feet (44m). The lake and town were originally named after the town of Geneva, New York, located on Seneca Lake, in which early settler John Brink saw a resemblance. Geneva, to avoid confusion with the nearby town Geneva, Illinois, was renamed Lake Geneva; later the lake was renamed Geneva Lake. In practice both forms are used for the lake, but only the first for the city. Source wikipedia
