Sue and Bob made us feel right at home when we visited for an overnight to see a concert at Alpine Valley. The B&B is tucked into a woody area on the edge of farms, well kept and interesting. Our breakfast was outstanding and we really appreciated Sue taking our meal preferences into consideration. We wish we had more time... More

A wonderful place to stay! Filled with warmth and hospitality! Bob and Sue open their hearts and their beautiful home. Comfortable room, delicious breakfast, and great conversation. Be sure to ask them for their dining and recreation suggestions. You won't be disappointed.

Bob and Sue were so kind, interesting, and friendly. The breakfast was the best we've ever had. SO delicious. The place was peaceful and charming, a real respite. When it was time to leave and our RV didn't start, Bob even gave us a jump! Wonderful!

Bob and Sue, the owners, are super friendly and made us feel right at home. The prepared breakfasts were outstanding! It was a short five minute drive in to Lake Geneva from the B&B. I wish we could have spent more time there.

We recently stayed at General Boyd's and had a very nice stay: charming home, wonderful hosts and fabulous food. But what sets them apart is that we felt like family. Our daughter was getting married at the nearby Northwind Perennial Farm ( check it out!) in a simple, rustic ceremony. Which translates to: no plumbing or place to change into... More

This is our second bed and breakfast location, we used to stay at French Country Inn, but now we have a new favorite place. This is what a true bed and breakfast should be. A... More

My wife and I spent the weekend at General Boyd's and we had a great time. Bob & Sue were wonderful hosts, not to mention breakfast was amazing. Bob & Sue helped us to plan out a day of great sightseeing, and offered good insight into what was not to be missed. Highly recommended B&B in a great resort town.... More

General Boyd's Bed and Breakfast was wonderful - My wife and I decided to spend our 2 year anniversary in Lake Geneva and spent a significant amount of time researching places to stay before deciding on General Boyd's - It's a hidden gem!

This was our first year wedding anniversary but because of our busy schedules, we could only get away for an overnight stay, so we opted to go to Lake Geneva and stay at a B&B. This was our first time using a B&B - we've heard many pleasant things about staying at B&Bs and wanted to add it to our... More
