Cement Sidewalks Spread on Geneva Island This Summer
Geneva Island plans additional summer improvements including cement sidewalks at several cottages. The Zeidler cottage and Up-to-Grove “The Round-up” already feature cement paths and a full width cement beach was installed last month. Several owners consider more cement sidewalks and other enhancements alongside two newly added tennis courts. The island shows vibrant plantings and minimal spring floods this year, boosting its appeal.
