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.
The archaeological grant we received from the state has sparked an interest in the history of our beautiful space. Join us as we explore the beginnings of our area and the city. Join us as we provide the fascinating information of the past.
This series is free and open to the public.
We need to meet each other, share stories and celebrate what we’ve done and think about what we want to do in the near future.
Drop by, spend some time with the Board and members and friends of the Friends of Hillmoor.
We’ve got some work to do on the grounds to make the paths, new and old, easier and safer to walk.
We’ve gotten the approval of the city to work on the paths they’ve opened up.
Bring gloves, practical shoes, a hat and/or sunscreen, tools if you have any or use ours.
Sunday is the raindate.
Sign up for our emails to be alerted on our plans for cleaning out buckthorn and other invasives.
The Friends of Hillmoor have joined with the Lake Geneva Library to select books that can educate us on the history of our area. This list is for all ages, all levels of knowledge about archeology, history and the land. Go to this page to see the list.
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.
