Take a Cruise to the Victorian Summer Retreat of a Chicago Beer Baron
Black Point Estate was built for Chicago Beer Baron Conrad Seipp in 1888 as a retreat, and in that spirit the home remains a place to relax, refresh, and explore. Just like the Victorian VIPs who established the estate, you’ll arrive in style and enjoy stunning Geneva Lake views on your cruise to this magnificent mansion, considered one of the finest examples of period architecture and furniture in the Midwest, and one of the oldest homes in Lake Geneva.

Actually, the snacks are brought in by Tina, our volunteer coordinator.
Our tours are from 11:15 AM- 1:15 PM so sometimes a little snack is necessary.

These photographs were taken by 3rd - 5th grade students that participated in our summer camp. Each camper was given a disposable film camera to record their four days at the Estate.
