First phase of the $40 million renovation began with 222 guest rooms which also included public spaces, such as meeting rooms and the lobby. The new redesign has given the resort a rustic but modern appearance. The resort introduces a new dining feature which involves cooking demonstrations conducted by the resort’s chef in a space built into the new upscale Frontier Restaurant.
The second phase of the renovation project involves constructing first of five $100 million lakefront condominium buildings called the Villas at Harbor’s Edge. It will include 130 two and three room condos. Plans to construct the Grand Delavan hotel, conference center and an indoor water park are also in the process. Lake Lawn will move its main entrance from Highway 50 to North Shore Drive.
The current renovation project is the resort’s first cosmetic overhaul since the 1980’s as reported by Pete Zellmer, Lake Lawn’s director of sales and marketing. The 250 acre resort is located on Highway 50 east of Delavan.
