Have been coming to Skilly's Big Chip Lodge for nearly 10 years and will continue to make the trip
The location is incredible overlooking Moore's Bay. Easy access to ice fishing and there is a private dock for the summer months. The bar room is the centerpoint of the cabin and makes an excellent spot for groups to gather. Gary is always available to answer questions or help out if needed.

View was amazing. Cabin was interesting. We had a awesome time. The 15 seat bar is actually in your cabin. Not an active bar anymore but very cool. No bars in walking distance that were open. It was early November so i am sure most resort bars close down.

Fall Fishing In Hayward...
Gary's place was as advertised and fit our needs well. We ended up having four adults for three nights. This is a unique property, formerly a bar and has ample sleeping arrangements upstairs for larger groups. I wouldn't stay here with my wife and kids, but with three buddies it was perfect, and Gary was more than accessible and accommodating.
