Hayward is a popular fishing destination because of the many lakes in the area. Hayward is home to the National Fresh Water Fishing Hall of Fame contained within the 200-foot (61 m) long tribute to the Musky. You can climb up into the mouth of the fish, a fiberglass sculpture, and look over the town, as well as Lake Hayward. During the Christmas season, Santa Claus can often be found looking over the town from the musky's mouth.

In addition to fishing, Hayward is also a hot spot for deer hunting, golfing, cross-country skiing, snowmobiling, and road & mountain biking. Hayward is the site of numerous festivals and events. Since 1983 the Chequamegon Fat Tire Festival is the largest gathering of off-road mountain bike riders in the world, and is the largest mass start mountain bike race in the United States.

The Lumberjack World Championship games include: log rolling, chopping, sawing, and chainsaw events. Hayward hosts the American Birkebeiner cross-country skiing race which are the largest races of their type in the country.

A new event added in the spring of 2011, is a kayak event called the Banderdinker.

Beautiful Retreat

The property is beautiful and secluded from the hustle and bustle. The family running it are working hard to make improvements to the property and I think they will enhance the overall experience. If there were any negatives, the wifi signal didn't work. It wouldn't have been an issue but we didn't have a Verizon signal either so it wasn't as relaxing of an experience because I was worried about work (I work at an emergency response company and being disconnected is difficult). On the other hand, it made us try to enjoy a weekend disconnected. I look forward to seeing how the resort evolves as they start implementing improvements.

Thank you for stay with us. I deeply apologise for the WiFi, it has been a huge struggle. I am looking at some other options, namely satellite internet as well as a Verizon booster. We look forward to hosting you all aagain in the future. We still have many openings this summer or email me to prebook for next year. Stay tuned for more improvements as we are on a 5 year plan to upgrade all trouble spots BUT will not change the over all theme and feel. :) hope to see you soon!

We had everything as advertised.

There was only one problem, we had no Television programming. Could only watch Tapes. I like to watch local news programming in the morning.

Summer Camping Trip

Wished there was fire pits by each cabin. There wasn't WiFi available as stated online. Otherwise, we enjoyed our stay. There was kayaks & boats with easy access to the lake. They didn't have a sandy beach area, but have recently changed owners, that are attempting to make changes.
