Lake Lawn Resort's signature restaurant, named for the year the original farmhouse became a guesthouse — panoramic waterfront views and a menu built on Midwestern roots.

Lake Lawn Resort's casual second restaurant — pub-style fare, craft beer, and signature cocktails for lunch and dinner daily.

A 261-slip marina on the lake's northeast shore, protected within a private break-wall — pontoon, speed boat, jet ski, kayak, and paddleboard rentals in summer.

A boat rental operator on North Shore Drive — pontoons and fishing boats, run under Kustom Parts & Service.

The lake's historic anchor on 200-plus wooded acres — the Mabie family's circus-era farm became a 50-room guesthouse in 1883 and has operated as a resort ever since, now with 271 rooms, a golf course, a spa, and the lake's largest marina.

Twenty-six circuses wintered in Delavan between 1847 and 1894, starting with the Mabie brothers' United States Olympic Circus — Edmund Mabie's circus is credited by local historians with inventing pink lemonade. A historical marker downtown documents the circus colony; the town's clown-history connection later relocated to the International Clown Hall of Fame in West Allis.
