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.

Looking forward to coming back!!
We had a delightful stay at the Cove. The suite was clean, well-appointed and confortable for the 4 of us adult women on a girls get away. We were surprised there were only 3 chairs on the balcony. Here's 2 suggestions. We stayed in a unit located at entrance 3. We could have used a wheeled valet to bring our things up ,but apparently they are only located at the main entrance. Second, the main bath had grab bars by the toilet, but there were no grab bars to get in the shower with the large jacuzzi. Over all we were very pleased with our choice.

Pros: This property maintains cleanliness very well. The pool area and its bathrooms are kept clean. This hotel is a great place for a little family getaway. It's very convenient to stay in. It's a 7 min walk to Riviera Beach. No need to worry about finding parking. Everything is walking distance from this location. Cons: Front desk staff needs work on their customer service. They just simply don't look like they want to be there and don't care. I had to ask for room service multiple times during the day (virtual chat, via phone which no one answers, and going to the front desk x2), and ended up with no room service that day. Virtual assistance was inconsistent. They only respond on the first day you check in. Front desk tells you to call but no one answers. They just give you excuses rather than solutions. Overall this place is a great place to stay but they really need to work on their front desk customer service and communication. Their overall facial expressions says it all.
