We like that we were able to walk to a lot of things. What we did not like was that we were put away at the end of the building which is fine. The problem was that the elevator in our area of the hotel was not working for four days straight. I would have hoped that they would’ve put us someplace comparable where an elevator was within easy reach.

The rooms are made to look a lot more appealing in photos than in person. Front desk barely said hello when we were checking in. On our first morning, I woke up to the sound of running water. Went into the “kitchen” area and water was steadily flowing from the ceiling light right in the middle of the room. A huge puddle had already gathered on the ground. When I went to the front desk to ask for a new room they said “we’ll have to have maintenance look first.” Alright.. we go get breakfast, come back 2 hours later and stop by the desk. “Maintenance said the water was coming from the light. They have to go check the room above you to see if they can fix it. If they can’t, then we’ll move you to another room. But that would mean we have to upgrade you. We will take off the daily $50 resort fee for you.” So we go get our things for the day and head out. Dont make it back until 2 AM. They don’t move us. They don’t mention anything at checkout. And they still charge us the total $100 resort fee. Stay somewhere else.

We liked the location with regard to the Lake. We enjoyed the balcony with our room. Disliked the bathtub - difficult to get into and very slippery. Would have liked availability of a listing of TV stations.

Overall we were very happy with our stay. Our suite was clean and had everything we needed. The only complaint is that the sofa pullout bed was extremely uncomfortable. The location made it very easy to walk everywhere we wanted to go. Lots of great shops and places to eat and drink. We look forward to staying there again.

I love The Cove, my son and I come to Lake Geneva at the end of every summer and usually other time throughout the year. We've stayed at The Cove at the end of August the last 2 years, we love the location and how it's walkable to so much. The suites are nice and this year we have one right by the pool, so the view especially in the evening was nice. The one negative I would say is the mattress on the bed was pretty uncomfortable, probably due for a replacement. Oh and we love the restaurant there in front of the resort however one of my favorites from last year was no longer on the menu so that was kind of a bummer. Still lots to choose from though!

First of all this place is huge and one can get lost just find the lobby from our room. There was a small stove/oven but no cooking pans or utensils so what the sense. The furniture is VERY out of date and in terrible shape and UNCOMFORTABLE however the bed was comfy. Apparently the new trend with these hotels is to not supply you with any daily needs like extra tissue. Overall it was ok stay if you don’t plan to sit and veg out in the room.

The Cove was a perfect place to have our reunion of old college friends from 1976. Four of us women stayed comfortably in a suite together and had everything we needed to make it a pleasant and fun experience. The dining at attached restaurant was some of the best food in town. We'll stay here again, for sure!

The Cove of Lake Geneva is in reasonably good condition. It’s also probably the best "bang for your buck", as almost every property in the Lake Geneva area is EXTREMELY overpriced. It’s a shame. I love the lake itself, but cannot bring myself to launch my boat on it, as it is VERY overcrowded. And there are no resorts where you can keep your boat in their marina because the wealthy Chicago families have it all booked up - forever. The resorts are not interested in new business. They only want to keep their "old money" customers.
