Our Mission: Protect and Enhance the historic Hillmoor land and waterway, with the intent it will become a sustainable public and recreational resource, benefiting the community and visitors of Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, for this day and all days to come.
We’re going to walk the many paths of Hillmoor over the rest of the summer. If you haven’t explored the property, join us as we travel the trails.
We won’t be going into the brush or off the paths. Bugs and buckthorn are very prominent right now, and this is intended to be a friendly, fun introduction to the many different areas of the property.
Meet at the parking lot at the main entrance on Hwy 50/Main Street. 5:30pm every Wednesday*, weather dependent.
* Except August 6, the night of our Meet & Greet
Wednesday, August 6 • 4-7pm. • Lake geneva Billiards Club, 772 W. Main Street
Fun, great company, munchies, pool
We need to meet each other, share stories, and celebrate what we’ve done, then think about what we want to do in the near future.
Drop by, spend some time with the Board and members and Friends of Hillmoor.
Wednesday, September 30 • 6:30pm. * Lodge Geneva National, W4240 Hwy 50

We’re joining with the Geneva Lake Libraries to bring this presentation of the history of our area.
Sign up for our emails to be alerted on our plans for cleaning out buckthorn and other invasives.
The Hillmoor Commission is making great strides in developing a plan for the property. They have a newsletter (monthly or as needed) with updates and information, and a link to a Comment Page where you can voice your opinions, ideas and concerns. This link takes you to the City’s website page dedicated to the Commission.
We’ve been gathering information on how to make your yard a haven for you and the creatures that inhabit our world. See our page on landscape, plant, and natural ideas.
The paths of Hillmoor are still a bit rough, but the sites are beautiful.
If you go, please take photos and share on our Facebook page.

Ernie loved Hillmoor almost as much as his beloved Donna. He was adamant about maintaining the space as a place to be close to nature and where one could appreciate the beauty of a quiet walk with his dog.
Donna has requested that you make a donation to the Friends of Hillmoor in honor of the work Ernie started to restore our park to the beauty he remembered from his childhood.
