About this property
Snowmobiler's Paradise on the Chippewa Flowage! Luxury Lakehouse on Trails
Gorgeous lake home situated on the picturesque Moore's Bay on the Chippewa Flowage. Enjoy world class fishing, boating, snowmobiling, water sports, or a little R&R from this spacious comfortable home.
Located within walking distance to great resorts like Johnson's, Deerfoot, and Deer Run to grab a drink and a bite to eat.
BEDROOMS/BATHROOMS: With a total of 5 bedrooms & 3 baths, everyone will have their space.
Main floor: 3 King bedrooms (master with ensuite) and a guest bath. On the lower level, you will find one Queen bedroom, one Bunk room with 2 sets of bunk beds (twins over queens), and a full bath (with tub for the little ones).
LIVING SPACES:
Chef's kitchen fully equipped with all the essentials and more. Inside dining will accommodate up to 12 (2 tables)
Main floor is a large screen smart TV, gas fireplace and plenty of windows surrounding the open concept area.
Lower level is complete with a second living room with smart TV, DVD player, wet bar, second fridge, and games area. There is a chess/checkers table, dart board and selection of board games. There is also a laundry room with washer and dryer for your convenience.
OUTSIDE:
Lakeside you will find an expansive deck with outdoor dining and a separate seating area with a fire pit table. You will have a gas grill (propane provided) and a large electric smoker. There’s a large grassy space with room for games (corn hole & lawn darts available) hammock, and a new brick firepit with plenty of seating for nightly campfires with s'mores. Stairs lead down to a new lakeside deck and dock with deep water at the end of the pier. Catch crappie right off the dock. Swim and sunbathe on the dock complete with swim ladder and deck chairs.
If our kayaks, and XL Lily pad are there at the dock then they are available for your group to use at no extra charge!
30 foot dock available for your boat. Launch ramp is 1 mile down the road. Plenty of space for parking cars and trailers on our property. Nearby resorts offer pontoon and fishing boat rentals (but they book up fast so make sure to reserve early).
Snowmobile or ATV right from the house on a legal snowmobile/ATV Rd, ¼ mile to the trail!
Included in your rental you will find:
Bed linens along with extra blankets. Bath (one per person), hand, and kitchen towels, garbage bags, paper towels, toilet paper, shampoo, conditioner, and soap. Dishsoap and dishwasher pods, ground coffee, coffee filters, (traditional coffee maker plus a Keurig, bring your own K cups) cleaning supplies, propane. You must bring your own beach towels! Do not take the bath towels to the lake. Ample amounts of the above will be provided but if you run out they will not be replenished.
Firewood provided
Internet: We have the ONLY internet available to us in the area, it is decent when there are just a few users. With larger groups and everyone connected it can be slow. We usually can stream Netflix without an issue. Internet will be upgraded whenever it becomes available but remember this is the Northwoods!
Come enjoy your stay here at our Big Chip Retreat!
Please look through the entire listing for answers to most questions.
**For questions or inquiries please click Contact Host, NOT request to book**
**We respect our neighbors greatly and only responsible groups will be considered. Max 12 people, 10 adults and 2 children…but will consider 12 adults....just note those 2 extra adults will have to sleep in twin top bunks! We are on a septic system so appropriate care must be taken by those staying in the home.
If you are looking for wild parties this is not the place for you. If you have little ones (or big ones) that are destructive and unsupervised then this is not the rental for you. This is our home.
Pack n Play and High Chair available. The bath towels provided are only to be used inside and not taken outside to be used as beach towels.
** Sorry but no instant booking. Please reach out with a description of your group for consideration. Short stays may be available in the prime summer season which do not always require 1 week rentals as most cottages do in the summer.. If your exact dates show as unavailable, reach out and we may be able to accommodate by adjusting our dates as we use home frequently.
Licensed by the Sate of Wisconsin.
***Please note: there is a hot tub on the premises as you may notice in photos but by strict State laws it is NOT allowed for renters and is locked. Sorry:(

About the host
Hosted by Shelley Donnary
While Chicago is our full time home we like to spend as much time here in the Hayward area where one of us grew up. We feel so grateful to have found our family cottage just down the road where we have spent many summer vacations. We love being on the flowage with so many acres to explore by boat or kayak. We especially love the view from our home and being so close the many resorts. We hope you enjoy your time here as much as we do.
Why they chose this property
Superb location, gorgeous views, quality home outfitted with comfort and enjoyment in mind.
What makes this property unique
Large indoor and outdoor space, deep water pier.
