The Perfect Day on a Wisconsin LakeWisconsin Lakes

Minnesota boasts of their 10,000 lakes in the motto on their license plates, but many of us Wisconsinites suspect that we may have more and better lakes. 

I grew up near the town of Luck, Wisconsin, a town which is proud to have over 30 premium lakes within 10 miles. 

Two of those premium lakes bordered on our 860 acre dairy farm. 

During my youth I became very familiar with these two lakes. 

One of which was a highly used recreational lake, with tons of swimmers, boaters, and lots of summer fun. 

Wisconsin LakesThe other one, was more secluded at the back of our farm, totally surrounded by forest land. 

The second lake was my favorite.  It is where I spent hours hunting, trapping, horseback riding, canoeing, and enjoying nature and of course I introduced this lake to all of the girls I dated. 

 

 

If you are ever looking for something enjoyable to do in Wisconsin, check out a few of our beautiful lakes.  Let me know which one is your favorite.

 

While you are waiting to see one of our beautiful lakes in person, enjoy this video of many of our lakes and the people who enjoy them.  (it is about 10 minutes, and worth your time)  Enjoy!!

If only these lakes could talk, what secrets would they share? The photos are magnificent, thanks for sharing them and it was neat hearing about your dairy farm. Is the farm still operating today?

The still waters are very peaceful Bob. It looks like a great place to get away.

The pictures are gorgeous!  My favorite lake is one of the many called "Round Lake" in southeastern Wisconsin.  It was the lake where I first learned to sail.  I loved to canoe and kayak, but learning to sail was the best!   Beautiful lake, peaceful, when you got out into the middle and could see or hear no one, unless they were on the lake too.     Strange, I don't remember your favorite lake...did we go on a date there?

Bob, I must tell you that A Perfect Day video is one of the absolute BEST I've ever seen. I nodded my head, especially when the old fella said any day at the lake is a Perfect Day....so very true. We are a clan of very few who get to do this for a living--allow people to connect with their dreams, to make wishlists come true....we are blessed and I feel honored, too, with this opportunity to share the magic with seekers of the Perfect Day that we can be the vessel to make happen for them.

I loved it.Thank you.
