This was our second year at the chip lodge. we liked it so much the first year that we had to come back. the first year we showed up there was maybe 15 people and the house easily accommodated us. its a rustic vibe. things are old and perhaps that is the charm and what we like about it. the highlight for us is definitely the slow cruises on the pontoon boat as we explored the lake. The kitchen is huge and designed to feed a lot of people. Gary is a nice guy. He lives right next door which is helpful if you have any questions about the lake, boats, lures, fishing, and everything else. The view from the large deck is exceptional. Enjoy your stay here. I'd recommend this place for any large group.

Great location and unique lodge
The lodge is in a great location and is a great option for large groups. The bar has a wonderful view and fishing is great right off the dock.

Timmy Memorial Ice Fishing Tournament
The property could definitely use updates and some deep cleaning. Lady bugs (the biting ones) were a big problem!

Family Polar Picnic
Was a prefect location to do some outdoor adventures. Easy access to the lake for some ice fishing fun. Plenty of parking for family to come and go while visiting.Enough run for the group without running into each other.Enjoyed the stay

Great place for a guys weekend
It's an old resort lodge. You know what you're getting into. I mean, there's a bar in the place. It's a ton of fun. Just book it already.

Beds and Bugs
There were 8 beds for 8 guys. That was the good part. Everyone said the beds came with the place, many, many years ago and should be replaced immediately. Flies and Asian Beetles and stinging wasps were very annoying. Had to walk around with a fly swatter constantly. I guess you get what you pay for.

Rustic North Woods historic cabin
Just stayed at the Big Chip escape. Pictures don't do justice to the unique and nostalgic cabin with the best view of the lake of any cabin on the Chip. Gary was hospitable and available whenever we had a question. The cabin itself is a unique North Woods experience with all of the features that a group from 5-14 would need.

Great fishing destination
Great location on a great big body of water that provided great fishing (once getting really good tips from Gary and local bait store) Really good conveniences on site like piers, firewood live minnows, fish cleaning house! The cabin is old school and very rustic. The bar is cool as is the deck.
Gary the owner was extremely nice and friendly.
All the fishing conveniences you could ask for!
