LAKE GENEVA — The beach at Big Foot Beach State Park in Lake Geneva is temporarily closed due to what the DNR calls “safety concerns.”

A notice posted April 30 to the Big Foot Beach State Park web page on the DNR website said the closure will remain in effect until further notice.

(We’re awaiting a response from the DNR with further details)

The abrupt closure comes as most COVID-19 related restrictions in Wisconsin state parks have been lifted.

In addition to the operations updates, the following amenities continue to be available to state park visitors:

  • Family camping (100% reservable with auto check-in)
  • Playgrounds will reopen
  • Outdoor group camping, maximum capacity of 100 people (100% reservable with auto check-in)
  • Bathroom and dump station facilities
  • Drive-up window service
  • Concessions, including firewood sales
