Prior to construction of the Geneva State Park Marina, there was a grand plan to create a marina and amusement park development at what had been Chestnut Grove. This effort was known as “Geneva Point.”
Some amusement rides were brought in, but the grand plan of the point, as shown in this photograph, never materialized.
