Before you rent, ask these questions. Do you have a lake view? Skilly’s – Yes, INCREDIBLE LAKE VIEW! How close is your dock? Skilly’s – 50 feet! Do you have electricity to the dock? Skilly’s Yes. Historic lakefront Skillys Big Chip Lodge on famous Moore’s Bay of the Chippewa Flowage(Home of the World Record Musky) is now for rent weekly. Waves lap the shore while the smell of brats fills the air. Cook out on the huge deck and chill with a cool drink or local Leinenkugel b**r inside at an “old days” photo filled 15 seat bar with stereo system overlooking Big Chip.50 inch Satellite TV, air conditioning and WIFI. Float around and just relax in the summer. Plenty of space for guests with 2 half baths downstairs and one full bath with shower tub upstairs. 3 bedrooms(with 6 beds) upstairs and one (2 beds) downstairs. Rustic rooms(with some unlevel floors) are knotty pine with a huge kitchen with 2 refrigerators, electric oven, and a full size horizontal freezer. Legendary fishing is here for musky, northern, smallmouth, largemouth, walleye, crappie and bluegill, some right from the dock. I caught a 50" musky in 2020 off the dock in October!!! If you like Chetek, Rice Lake, Spooner or Minocqua you’ll love the Hayward Lakes area. Excellent ice fishing and snowmobiling nearby, just ask Skilly or Jenk’s Bait Shop(internet site). The fish cleaning house is next door. Drive the go cart track or clean up at the LCO Casino. Explore breathtaking wilderness as this lake is not cabin to cabin like many others. With friends around a campfire, the silence is broken only with a loons cry. Millions of stars light up the Northwoods sky and watch them shoot across the universe. Much of the shoreline is Chequemagon National Forest and will always remain uninhabited and public for canoeing, hiking/hunting. Take your swim floats to an island beach. Find the rope swing. There are spots where you’ll think you are in Canada. Hunt for trophy deer, bear, turkey, ducks and grouse that abound here. Leashed pets cleaned up after are no problem. This is a truly beautiful Northwoods destination with Hayward restaurants, golfing and shops nearby to be discovered. Give us a call now before your dates fill to set up your trip to God’s Country! The Skillestad’s thank you and will give you every tip we can to make your stay an incredibly fun time. Lodge weekly rate is seasonal. 25% down nonrefundable is required to secure dates. Upstairs MBR 1 queen 1 cot, BR2 1 double 2 twin, BR 3 1 twin below single top, downstairs curtain divided living room 2 couches and 1 queen bed & 1 twin surrounded by a curtain divider. Thank you, Gary W. Skillestad
