Maxwell Mansion is a wedding venue, motel and a cocktail bar. I was here mostly for the cocktail…read morebar, but I did get a tour of the mansion and grounds. The mansion was built in 1856, making it the first mansion in Lake Geneva. The estate has been completely redone but charming details were kept. Along with a mansion where you can book a room, Maxwell also includes beautiful gardens, lounges, outdoor fireplaces, a heated pool, croquet and bocce ball. There is also a separate area in the back with motel rooms. Like I said, I was there for a lil' drink. There's a bar inside the mansion (Apothecary Bar) with all kinds of medical and druggist paraphernalia, with the space being a tribute to Dr. Philip Maxwell. But it's the speakeasy, which is accessible outside in the front of the house, that you'll want to visit. Ask for the password inside the mansion, and they will let you into a dark, below-ground bar. It's all decorated in prohibitionist flyers, and even the bartenders are dressed up in period costumes. It's a really cool and unique bar in Lake Geneva.

Lovely DIY/historic venue option for less than 175 in downtown Lake Geneva!…read more While we decided against going w/ HH as a venue, I can't recommend Beth and the space highly enough. Beth is thoughtful, competent, friendly and organized. As for the space, the price point is reasonable, the indoor/outdoor functionality is awesome, and with a little DIY love, this place could really shine for a big day. It's on the historic register of places, and it's all "al fresco garden/backyard meets historic park pavilion" in its feel. Bring all yr own booze/give it away (no selling!), rock a licensed caterer - they have a HUGE, fully-equipped catering kitchen, use their tables chairs or rent your own, and well, yeah. This spot is an affordable and lovely option for those looking to go a little more DIY route on their wedding day.

But she could "book me at 2:05 with a two-some. Her tone was rude and uninviting. Considering they had 2 back to back tee times open with 4 available players she could have booked me. I understand this business model in the middle of summer, but in the fall after kids are back in school and day of it shouldn't be an issue. While it looks like a nice course, I probably will not visit it due to the customer service. Additionally if they do not want singles they should only advertise 2-4 players on those tee times.

Cassie answered my emails very timely to ensure the bunches were ordered properly, and they were very clear on what options I had. I chose Lilypots over a slightly less expensive option because the customer service they provided definitely helped mitigate the stress of party planning. Overall, I was very happy with the experience! Picking the flowers up on a Friday afternoon was a bit more difficult due to the many weddings and deliveries they are often juggling, but I totally understand this is a crazy year and weddings are the core of their business! They called me about what time frame I could get my flowers and were very apologetic it varied from their store hours, but I definitely appreciated the open communication and customer service! Also, they have designated free parking in front of their shop for customers which is a huge plus in Lake Geneva!

Working with them was truly amazing and they were such a gorgeous addition to my day! I cannot say enough awesome things.

Elizabeth was incredible and went above and beyond to send creative ideas, helpful suggestions and kept me on track along the way. She kept great notes, attended meetings with vendors I could not attend (as I am out of state), thought of many day of items I hadn't and all while presenting me with great solutions and ideas. During the day she kept everything on track, learned my bridal party and became part of the family. She was also amazing support when my venue coordinator abruptly quit (10 days before the wedding), she brought in extra help for the set up, found me a violinist, triple checked all details with the venue, and checked on the set up during the cocktail hour to ensure everything was exactly as we discussed (I later heard it wasn't but Elizabeth kept calm, didn't panic anyone and ensured everything was as it should be). Several times my mom and I said, "How do people do this without Elizabeth?" Elizabeth is that extra pair of hands you need who knows what to do when and allows you, your mom and your wedding party to fully enjoy the day.
