Sawyer County, Wisconsin

Sawyer County is a special place in the northern woodlands that affords a genuine opportunity to enjoy the wild and scenic wonders of its diverse landscapes. The Hayward Lakes Area’s central location to Wisconsin’s Northwoods makes it an ideal base camp for exploring this part of the State’s many attractions and natural wonders. Our woods and waters can be explored during any season of the year.  Hayward is home to the Fishing Hall of Fame.  We hold the current World Record Muskie honor.

From the porch of your lakeside cabin, you can hear them, the loons, way out on the water.  The air smells like pine.  This is the peace of Wisconsin’s Northwoods.  The landscape is dotted with lakes, the sky with stars, and the town’s bustling bars and coffeehouses with people looking for a place where the noise of traffic falls away, replaced by wind hissing through the trees
