Adventure

Item Description

Isn't time to unplug from your hectic life for a short while and come back to what matters? Spending time with the family without the daily pressures of needing to get somewhere, having to check emails, seeing what's happening on facebook, returning calls on the cell phone, all with the blare of the TV in the background keeping you up to date on the daily world drama.

It is time, time to listen to the loons at night calling from the lake, looking at a sky full of stars unfaded by city lights, time to breathe fresh air, and drink water that comes clean and pure, with no added chemicals or that has sat on a shelf for months in plastic bottles.

Enjoy a one week cabin rental for four people this winter, spring or fall of 2013 at a small "mom and pop" resort located in the Wilderness of Northern Wisconsin on the Chippewa Flowage outside of Hayward. The Big Chip has 140 islands, 240 miles of shoreline and is 90% undeveloped allowing you to truly get away from it all!
