Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful lake home with our family! We enjoyed walking the beach, collecting smooth stones, and resting in the beach chairs along the lake shore. The view is spectacular and we enjoyed all of our family meals at your table. What a lovely place to vacation!

Thank you for renting your home to us. We love the area! We enjoyed bonfires nightly and much appreciated the delivery of firewood. Love the privacy and we are most appreciative that you allowed our dogs. Your tour of your dairy farm was very interesting.

Thank you so much for making our stay at the Lakehouse so warm and comfortable. Every amenity was provided. We awoke to spectacular sunrises over this vast lake. We walked its shores and simply gazed wordlessly at its beauty.

The view alone is worth the trip! This beautiful home is icing on the cake. We have had a relaxing and very enjoyable vacation here. Here are the kids' favorite parts: the beach, the hardwood floors (great for sock-skating), the big beds, the campfires & s'mores & the games. It has been interesting watching the insects change seemingly every day: so many dragonflies one day, teeny gnats one evening and many beautiful butterflies! The telescope is very fun. We could even see the top of the storm clouds (lightening) one night from a storm in eastern Michigan!! Thank you for providing everything we needed to make a special week of memories.

Our short stay here came to an end much too soon! My husband, myself, and 2 sons found your home to be the perfect, relaxing getaway that each of us desperately needed. The property is amazing! Fantastic views of beautiful, blue Lake Michigan. Golfing was great at Whistling Straits. Thank you for sharing your lovely piece of heaven on earth with us.

We made some fun family memories this week. The weather was cold so we stayed inside and discovered all the good hiding places for hide-n-seek. Our boys got to build their first fires in the fire pit. The sunrises were beautiful. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of the farm. Thank you for all your hospitality. I know our family will always have fond memories of our stay here.

Great accommodations, fantastic views, walks on the beach, fishing excursion on Lake Michigan, tons of salmon and great fun! We enjoyed the hospitality of the Klessig family farm. The biggest disappointment was the Minnesota Vikings loss to the Green Bay Packers! Thanks again for the much needed R & R.

I spent a glorious week in the beautiful Saxon Sunrise lakehouse with my good friends from Georgia; Doris, David and Edwin. I enjoyed going swimming every morning in Lake Michigan and it was fascinating to see the sun rise and the sun set. It was great to visit Saxon Homestead Creamery and Saxon Homestead Farm where Doris grew up and where we met the Klessig's and the Heimerl's several times. Thank you for all your hospitality, I will always remember you and I look forward to coming back again one day.

We had a wonderful week at your vacation beach house! The great games, gorgeous lake views, sandy beach and spacious home were exactly what our family needed. We also enjoyed the tour of the farm that Karl hosted. We all learned a lot about dairy farming and appreciated the respect for the land and animals that you show. We'll be looking for Saxon Creamery cheeses in our area! Thanks again for a great time.

Wow! So much more than we ever expected! Thank you so much for opening your home to us. We have fallen in love with the beautiful view. Our boys spent everyday, all day at the beach collecting rocks. Evenings were spent by the campfire. We truly appreciated the amenities your home offered; not a single detail was over-looked. Lastly, thank you for taking time to teach us a little about the hard work farmers do-we have a greater appreciation for the milk we drink! Can't wait to schedule our next trip back!

Thanks for a wonderfully relaxing weekend. Even with below zero temperatures, we enjoyed the amazing view, spectacular sunrises and the grand kitchen table that allowed us to keep 3 young children busy with board games for the whole day! Saying "good-night" to the moon on the beach was a priceless memory despite the freezing weather! The Pearson's from Oregon and Wisconsin

Thanks for everything! The home is lovely. We enjoyed the fire pit, the beach and the large play space between the kitchen and the living room. Thanks also for the wonderful dairy farm tour. Karl was so informative. Other things we enjoyed were Whispering Orchards for their great breakfasts and great animals; Whistling Straits Golf Course for their good lunches and beautiful views; Manitowoc Zoo, Henry Schutte Park in Manitowoc, The Immigrant Room at The American Club in Kohler, The Horse and Plow – best fried cheese curds ever; Il Ritrovo in Sheboygan – great wood-fired pizza. Thanks for all the memories. This was our first family vacation with our little boy and we will always remember it.The Howard FamilyIllinois

We enjoyed our stay here. The house is great, nice warm comforters and beds. The tour of the farm was very interesting. Your cheese is fantastic! We wish you the best with the cheese business and hope to say- yeah we know them when they were just getting started! We celebrated an early Thanksgiving here by candle light and the view- nothing like it- it was fabulous! Our kids enjoyed the games and the house. We will be back in warmer weather although we did use the beach a couple times and found lots of sea glass. Thank you for your hospitality! The Scholls and Carusos, Illinois

What a great vacation! This place is truly a piece of heaven! Our family had such a great time here. The grounds are perfect for kids to run and an ideal setting for a family reunion. We enjoyed the fire pit several nights with our s’mores and hot coffee and a brat on a Sheboygan hard roll. Can’t be beat with a view like this. The farm tour is a must! We learned a lot and to see 450 cows walk a mile to be milked is amazing! Thanks for the tour Karl. We all enjoyed it! Thanks again for some great memories and a great vacation!

What a wonderful time. My name is Robert Nimmer and I was born and raised in Sheboygan. I currently live in Fountain Valley, California and I’m visiting this wonderful cottage so that I can attend my 50th high school reunion, rah rah Central High, Class of ’58. I am here with my beautiful wife, Sally, and my daughter, son-in-law and grandchildren. This is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, being able to show them where I grew up. The farm tour was wonderful because if brings back fond memories of my childhood. The lake is great, it’s one of my most treasured memories of the area and I wish I had taken the time to enjoy the beauty of the lake when I was growing up. My thanks to the Saxon Homestead Farm families for giving me another chance to sit back and enjoy the GOOD LIFE.
