Quick Details
Enjoy a look inside this historic estate! 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.
After a 45-minute narrated boat tour from Lake Geneva to Black Point, visitors will take a guided tour of the first two floors of the mansion and the exterior grounds which will last approximately 1½ hours. The return trip to Lake Geneva by boat will also include a narrated tour.
*Please see important details about this tour under SPECIAL NOTES below!
We recommend the Black Point Tour for guests 12 years of age and over. This tour is 3 1⁄2 hours in length and does involve walking, stair climbing, and attention to a docent guided tour throughout. The Best of the Lake Cruise or the Ice Cream Social Cruise are best for children because of the shorter length of the tour. As with all of our tours, there is a live narration so passengers are still asked to be respectful of others who are there to enjoy the guided tour.
We offer AAA, Preferred Guest with local hotels, and military discounts. (One discount per transaction.) We also offer an additional discount for senior guests on Tuesdays. View our specials and promos here.
We offer a full Snack Bar and Cash Bar with items such as chips, candy, and soft drinks. If you bring a small snack to hold you over during the tour that is fine, but we do not allow full meals and we do not allow coolers. ON THE BLACK POINT TOUR ANYTHING YOU BRING ON BOARD MUST BE ABLE TO BE CARRIED WITH YOU DURING THE ENTIRE TOUR. THE BOAT DOES NOT ALWAYS STAY AT THE DOCK WHILE GUESTS ARE TOURING THE ESTATE. No alcohol is permitted to be brought on board because we have liquor licenses on all the boats.
We are not able to accommodate a stroller on this tour.
Please contact the Lake Geneva Cruise Line reservation office for details on handicapped access for the Black Point Tour.
