Ahhhh, take in the smell of the fresh pines as you gaze across the smooth waves on the lake. The sun is rising and the sky looks like an oil painting, one that belongs in a museum. As you sip your coffee with the lakeside bonfire crackling the remaining wood from the night before, you think to yourself how lucky you are to live in such a beautiful state!

Many Wisconsin natives enjoy spending weekends in the summertime up north on a lake. Many families have cabins and land that they use as a “second home” when that warm weather hits. Either passed down in the family or purchased as a vacation home, there’s no better feeling than Friday afternoon when you pack up the car to head to the lake. Wisconsin offers hundreds of lakes to explore, each one offering something a little bit different. Whether you’re a fan of water-sports, hiking, fishing, or even just relaxing, it’s time to appreciate the time we have this summer on the lake before the cold weather come.
