THE LODGES AT LAKE LAWN RESORT

Delavan, Wisconsin Condo Hotel

Hello, Henry Perfilio here. I hope this newsletter finds you enjoying your summer. Today I have an interesting property to tell you about.

Unlike my usual Florida or Las Vegas inventory, this property comes with a long history. Join me on a trip to the Midwest, to scenic Delavan, Wisconsin.

The Lodges at Lake Lawn Resort
People have been making Lake Lawn Resort and its nearly two miles of exclusive, park-like, lakefront property their personal playground since 1879. Nestled amidst the rolling splendor of eternal green forests and deep blue waters, this is somewhere you come to cherish tradition, celebrate vision and remember why you work so hard.

This is a place where people with fun in their hearts first created American circuses in 1849. That's right, Barnum and Bailey's Circus used to train and vacation here in the mid 1800's.

Over the years, Lake Lawn Resort has established a unique and enduring destination with a long tradition of excellence and attention to service. Today, the fashionable Geneva Lakes region's beautiful and architecturally significant 19th century heritage is faithfully preserved throughout the area, creating an idyllic retreat.

Less than 90 minutes from Chicago and Milwaukee and yet a world away, Lake Lawn Resort beckons you to step back in time, step up in service and step into your future.

A Wealth Of Riches and Amenities
Even with the abundance of what Lake Lawn Resort offers you and your family today, still more is planned for tomorrow. Today, the original condominium lodge suites, with stunning lake and golf course views, are evolving to a four-star level, equipped with balconies, granite countertops, LCD flat screen TVs, beautiful bathrooms and lavishly furnished right down to the designer linens. Only a limited number of condominium lodge suites are still available for purchase, so don't delay.

Today at Lake Lawn Resort, almost two miles of shoreline and 250 acres on Lake Delavan, including a 165-slip marina, are at your disposal, along with heated pools, sumptuous spa, fitness center, excellent dining and the 18-hole lakefront golf course.

Tomorrow, the lakefront master plan expansion proposes additional first class conference space for weddings, reunions and meetings, and a wild and vast indoor waterpark, anticipated to become one of the most expansive and exciting in the Midwest. Other enhancements will include more dining, entertainment and spa options.

A History of Success
From romantic getaways and full-fledged family outings to memorable special events and conventions, Lake Lawn is a favored resort of many. It's the kind of place that you'll find families that have been coming for generations. The new owners have extremely ambitious plans for the resort but are interested in preserving the history of the lodge and its surroundings.

Wrap Up
Now I admit, Delavan, Wisconsin can't offer the weather that Florida or the Caribbean can. But it can provide four-season variety and serve as a wonderful getaway for people from the Milwaukee and Chicago areas. Besides, if Barnum & Bailey's thought it was the "Greatest Place on Earth," it's good enough for me.
