So easy to order online and their honey is perfect!

I received my 20 lbs of white beeswax super fast! It smells amazing and is packaged in a thick big bag. It melts nicely and I have made some beautiful colors with it. I will definitely be ordering more.

If you’re even thinking about getting into beekeeping, do yourself a favor and start with Brian and Karen at Honey Lake Bee Company. These two are absolute bee whisperers—walking encyclopedias of apiary knowledge wrapped in the warmth of genuine hospitality. From day one, they made us feel not just supported, but truly confident in our ability to care for bees. Whether it was helping us choose the right equipment, understanding seasonal cycles, or learning how to inspect a hive without feeling like we were defusing a bomb, they had a calm, clear, and deeply experienced answer for everything. What really sets them apart is that they don’t just sell bees—they raise beekeepers. Brian’s practical tips saved us from a dozen rookie mistakes, and Karen’s passion for pollinators is downright contagious (in the best way). You don’t just walk away with bees—you walk away with a mentor, a community, and the inspiration to be part of something bigger. Highly, highly recommend. If every business ran like Honey Lake, the world would be sweeter—just like their honey.

Excellent quality and customer service. Pure gold.

Brian & Karen are the best people and great beekeepers, whom want to teach and train future beekeepers. They offer great honey and have beekeeping supplies readily available.

all good

I usually buy this salve at the Palatine (IL) Farmer’s market. The Honey Lake folks are a highlight of the market. I ordered their Propolis Salve recently on their user friendly website during an extended stay out of town. My shipment arrived promptly with no hassles. Great company.

Great service! Always something new when I return.

Quick and easy pick up. Bought some mite treatments while was at it and had a productive conversation about the difference between organic and inorganic methods. Bee package was in great condition with very few dead bees.
