The Lodge at Geneva-on-the-Lake
The Lodge at Geneva-on-the-Lake has grown into a tourist destination in Northeast Ohio's wine country since opening in 2004.
About an hour outside Cleveland along rural Ashtabula County's Lake Erie coastline, stakeholders are fretting about the future of a lodge that has been a linchpin of Northeast Ohio's burgeoning wine country for the last 17 years.
Opened in 2004, the multimillion-dollar Lodge at Geneva-on-the-Lake has been owned and subsidized by the county since its inception.
However, for better or worse, that will change at the end of this year. That's when the state is set to take control of the property and pay off its remaining debt.
