One of America’s Best Summertime Lake Towns is Close to Rockford
If you live in the Rockford area and are staring at summer with little to no budget for a vacation, is there a town that might be worth the drive for a little trip?
Thrillist released their list of America's Greatest Lake Towns to Visit This Summer, and lo and behold, they included a town in Wisconsin.
I'm sorry Illinois was left off this list for now, but the fact remains that there's a town in Wisconsin you should immediately make plans to visit this summer.

Lake Geneva is nestled among places in states like Iowa, Minnesota, Arizona, and even Idaho.
You probably did the same thing I did when I originally saw Lake Geneva pop up: You said, "Oh, yeah, I forgot about that place."
Thrillist says it should be on the top of our minds, calling it a "quintessential Midwestern lake town" where they hype up the legendary Lake Geneva booze cruises, bar and restaurant scene, beaches, trails, and supper clubs.
No trip to Wisconsin is complete without a meal at a supper club. The old-school Mars Resort is part biker-bar, part lakeside rager, that calms down into an evening supper club once the sun goes down.
Does Lake Geneva deserve to be included on the list of fantastic summer lake towns, or is there one that Thrillist should include instead?
