Sportsmen's Lodge

The resort offers you a boat and a motor without charging you more for either. This is a great since most resorts will charge you an extra charge for both. Also, there is a special air water tank that John allows you to store your bait in so they will live longer. Last, we received a discount (25%) on the rental because it was not the normal tourist season (it was late fall). But you have to stay at least 3 days for this discount.

There only two drawbacks of this resort. One, the resort is located on a steep location. When you have to walk up and down the hill to the boat dock, it can be tiring. I would not recommend this resort for older people or people with physical disabilities. And two, after the normal tourist season is over (usually the second week of October), the power and electric company drains some of the water around the resorts on Moose Lake to safe energy. This leads to difficulty in getting into the boats because the boats are not close to the water and there are huge boulders around them. We had to have John rig up an aluminum stepladder for us to get out of the boat, and we had to slide off the dock and land standing up in the middle of the boat to board it.

In spite of the two drawbacks I listed above, I highly recommend this resort. The resort owners are kind and the accommodations are clean and comfortable. The resort is located on Moose Lake; the address is 7595 W. Pine Point Rd., Hayward, WI 54843; and the phone number is 715/462-3847 or 715/462-9402.

Sportsmen's Lodge

Sportsmen’s Lodge is located on Moose Lake in the Hayward Lake Region. This lodge is open year round. It is within the Chequamegon National Forest. Sportsmen’s is about thirty miles from the city of Hayward, WI. It is a small resort with resort owners who have big hearts. Linda and John Mejer are probably the most kindest resort owners I have ever encountered in the Hayward, WI region; and I have been here more times than I can count. They have a genuine concern that you have a grand time on your vacation. For instance, the lodge offers a variety of sandwiches, pizzas, etc. you can purchase and if you have forgotten your fishing pole or don’t have an adequate one for fishing muskies, John will loan you one of his for $8 a day. And if you are into snowshoeing, ice fishing, skiing, or snowmobiling, this is also available here. These activities are available because of the Chequamegon National Forest.

Concerning the accommodation here, this resort offers three cabins. Two of the three are basic fishermen cabins. By this I mean, there are no real frills here except a 13-inch TV that has satellite channels, a microwave, linens and cooking utensils. However, these two cabins are very clean and have sufficient space for your needs. For example, our cabin had a kitchen/dining room area, a bathroom, two bedrooms and a screened in porch. The kitchen had an old-fashion refrigerator and stove but both worked well. The bedrooms had metal bunk beds which had a double on the bottom and a twin bed at the time. The log cabin sleeps eight people. It was new, rustic pine inside and simply gorgeous. It had the dining room, kitchen, living area, futon, bathroom, and a bedroom downstairs. And the upstairs had another bed.
