We have stayed at a few places in our many years of travels to Lake Geneva, our getaway spot that we travel to every year. 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 enjoy visiting to Lake Geneva once a year for a romantic get-a-way. We chose General Boyd,s Bed and Breakfast because of their elegant rooms. The owners Bob & Sue were very friendly. Their hospitality was so sensational that my wife and I felt like we were visiting family. The breakfast was phenomenal and the conversation was... 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! The atmosphere is cozy, the decor is warm and inviting (think a weekend away at Grandma and... More

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

We had a lovely stay at General Boyd's. Bob and Sue are such gracious hosts. Add to that the great price for the room and the amazing breakfasts, and I would guess this may be the most fabulous place to stay in Lake Geneva. The only small complaint I have is that the room we stayed in was not very... More

General Boyd's is a quiet, restful, convenient, and pleasant place to stay in Lake Geneva, close to town, but in the quiet of the country. The inn is packed with history and lots of interesting antiques. The best part of the inn isn't the inn itself, but the innkeepers. Sue and Bob are so genuinely kind, polite, friendly and welcoming,... More

If you're looking for a bed and breakfast with loads of charm and extremely attentive hosts, this is the place. Bob and Sue Morton have made General Boyd's a delightful retreat. From Sue's incredibly large and delicious home-made breakfasts, Bob's guidance on what to do in the area, to the amazing antiques that are everywhere, General Boyd's is truly a... More

Spent a few nights here at the start of our mid West adventure. Due to flight delays we arrived late in the evening but this was not a problem for Bob and Sue and Bob kindly waited up for us. The driving directions that they had sent us were also spot on and helped us arrive safely in the dark.... More

I am not sure why this B&B has not received more ratings, but I doubt that will be the case for too long. Bob and Sue run a very well-kept B&B close to town, and are as nice as could be. The rooms are old school romantic and the breakfast is out of this world. It was by far the... More
