Family Fun for Everyone

A trip to Lake Geneva with the whole family should include a visit to the Moose Mountain Falls Waterpark. This 50,000 square foot indoor and outdoor, all season park features natural lighting and enough rides and thrills to keep kids busy for hours. There are two 35-foot slides that are over 300-feet long. You will swirl and plunge all the way down into the heated pool. Parents may enjoy the Lazy River a bit more than the slides since they will be able to coast along in tubes enjoy the soft twists and turns of 560-feet worth of winding river. Also featured are two activity pools, a log path, and a tree slide. If mom and dad want to stay dry but still keep an eye on the kids, they can sit in the lounge area. Better yet, there are three whirlpool spas indoors and out, as well as an indoor/outdoor hot tub. The park is open weekends from 10:00 am until 10:00 pm, and Sunday through Thursday from 10:00 am until 8:00 pm. Holidays may feature special hours, so be sure to check the website if this may be an issue.

Moose Mountain is located inside of the Timber Ridge Lodge and guests of the Lodge receive passes for the waterpark. This is the only all-season, all-suite resort in the Midwest. It is adjacent to the Grand Geneva Resort, a less family oriented resort in Lake Geneva. Rooms feature private balconies, complimentary bottled water, high speed Internet access, in-room coffee, and televisions with VCRs. Each room receive four arcade tokens, so kids can head down to the arcade and immediately begin to enjoy themselves.

There are a variety of dining options and everyone in the family is sure to find whatever they are looking for. Smokey's Bar-Bque features slow cooked meat, and the Hungry Moose Food Court offers quick snacks all day long. Food from Smokey's can be carried out and taken back to the room to be enjoyed by the entire family in the dining area. There are a number of other restaurants across the street at The Grand Geneva Resort, so if you are looking for something different, head over there. Choices include the Ristorante Brissago, the Geneva ChopHouse, the Grand Cafy, the Links Bar and Grill, and the Cafy Gelato. Call before going if you are concerned about hours or you are looking for something specific.

Many people choose to host their events at the Timber Ridge Lodge, and their meeting space includes the Cascades Ballroom. This large space is able to accommodate up to 200 guests for meetings and social events. You also have the option of using meeting space at the Grand Geneva Resort, even if you are staying at the Timber Ridge Lodge.

Timber Ridge is located about an hour from Milwaukee, and less than two hours from Chicago. If you are looking for a unique destination that offers something for the entire family, head to Timber Ridge Lodge. Kids will never forget an exciting trip to the Moose Mountain Falls.
