    I live here, I was raised here. I left for a while but I'm back. It's amazing to see how much the town has changed and grown, it was a bit of a shock when I came back and it continues to grow now.
    It'll always have a special place in my heart, even if I don't stay here forever.

    I’m going to Lakeland University Wisconsin in the fall of 2023.
    People are all calling me crazy to go to Sheboygan cuz essentially they say there’s nothing over there but so what, I like a simple geographical area.
    See you in fall 2023 Sheboygan.

      There's plenty to do in Sheboygan. Lots of places for food/drinks, lots of places to bike ride. Bring your fishing gear...and get a sled for the winter. And if you need to get out of town, Milwaukee is less than an hour south. Door County is an hour or so to the north.

    I grew up in Sheboygan. Kinda hated it. If I wasn’t riding my bike I was getting in trouble.
    Not bad stuff, just dumb stuff.
    After getting married and moving away I grew to see what I was missing.
    Now I bring my kids to show and share with them everything I loved as a kid.
    I split from their mother cuz she was crazy.
    Fast forward a few years. I’m remarried to chick from Chicago and I bring her and her family up and thru love it too

      @@WisconsinTraveler It was pretty good i have to say we explored a lot such as the bookworm gardens, the really tall acuity flagpole, we ate a great Greece place, got ripped off at a farmers market 🫤, The waves were really good when we went and we saw some pretty big ones,and took a Segway tour and saw the art center and many other historic things in town, Finally we finished our day off by eating at the barbecue/pizza place on the dock area, we were originally planning to go to some cheese factory of some sort but it closed and we just decided to hit the road. Great trip overall I’ve never seen this part of Wisconsin it always gets overshadowed by the other big cities such as Milwaukee or Madison 9/10 would go again if there is anything else to do or maybe ill visit somewhere like Manitowoc or green bay (where my cousin went to college)

    Nice filming, but this could've been SO much more interesting if he had included more information on the history, wildlife and geology of the area. More info about swimming and boating on the lake would've been good, too. Many people don't realize how cold and treacherous the waters can be, even at the height of summer. Sheboygan also has a great arts community and many other places to go for a woodland walk, like Evergreen Park, Maywood Park and Indian Mound Park. There's also the Old Plank Road trail for runners and bikers. And while it's not technically Sheboygan, the two Kohler golf courses, Whistling Straits and Black Wolf Run, are world-class golf courses that often host PGA events.

      The summer of 20 2030 feet of lake Michigan were 82°. Because we had a warm spring and super hot summer.
      Show much so that it heated up the lake. So unless you go to the Lakefront in the middle of December, and even then you’ll see people they’re walking their dogs and surfers in the water and you’re missing something.

Not sure what publication the "wi visitors guide" is though. I did live in the city for several years and know firsthand that it is furthest from boring.
