Lakewood Farm has a long history as one of the most outstanding livestock and grain producers in the Midwest. In its earliest days Lakewood farm produced the greatest breeding and show Percherons in the United States which included the great stallions Calypso, Matador and Venmore. It was famous for its parties attended by prominent people. Although the farm has undergone many modern changes, evidence of the past can still be felt today when walking through the massive peg barns that stand strong with their Century old timbers, high ceilings and lofts. The old brick home was replaced with a large wonderful 2 story farmhouse. This property still has many reminders of the history including the summer kitchen remnants with original sinks and stove. Next to the old outhouse stands a bunkhouse in need of restoration that once housed the many hired men the farm required. Currently this quiet and serene acreage has been used for feeding and pasturing cattle, gardening, many childrens “projects” and picnics in the pasture overlooking the Rock River. Make plans today to attend the open houses!!
