Hayward Home near Downtown and Bike/Ski Trails
Great spot, close to town. Appreciated the AC during a heat wave!

Private Modern Cabin w/Hottub on 11 acres!
This place was such a good weekend get away! This cabin is super private which we loved. So much wild life! and they had lots of fun activities to offer! Lovely space!

Valley Red Cabin
Great stay for a couple and dog. Private area, beautiful clean cabin. Full size kitchen and bathroom were great. Thank you!

Pets Welcome - RV/EV Friendly - Minong Flowage
The cabin is thoughtfully designed, well equipped, and incredibly peaceful. Neighbors are nearby but at a distance. Tap water tasted great and the shower had plenty of hot water. There are a few sections of the property that are roped off for the sprinkler system that although marked in bright orange, we still managed to trip over as a cautionary!

Mia's Black Dog Lodge on beautiful Big Lake Chetac
We loved our 3rd stay at Mia’s Black Dog Lodge. It is very clean and well-supplied. The lodge fits our needs for a small ladies retreat perfectly.

Start Line Inn on Bike & XC Trails Powered by Sun
Perfect location for riding CAMBA trails and close to Cable! We’ll definitely be back. There’s a bike shop right there in case you need anything, and the Telemark and Birkie finish are just around the corner.

The Gordon Flowage Cabin
Brandi and her place was amazing! Fit all our needs, close to our event in solon springs but still felt like we were in the middle of the woods. Great views of the water from the living room table. Very clean and tidy. Would 100% recommend!

Welcome to Loons Landing in Minong, WI
My husband and two boys came here to visit. The inside was everything you could need with lots of sleeping arrangements. The outside was phenomenal. Large outdoor area, two docks, close to boat ramp, lots of off the doc fishing. the kitchen was well stocked. We were fortunate to have great weather, but they had other things to do in town in case the weather was bad. Aimee was very responsive. We have never visited an AirBNB twice because we like to try new things, but we would absolutely come back here.

Rustic Pines Lodge - Bike/Hike/ATV from Driveway!
Great home and close to all the trails including ATV which you could ride from home to trails. The home was clean and directions were very good. Totally recommend this cabin!

Retreat to the Northwoods
We loved staying at Alana’s spot in Hayward for a weekend skiing the Birkie! The beds were comfy, the view was beautiful and we especially loved the fireplace. We would definitely stay there again!

New Cozy Cabin on a Lake for the Perfect Getaway!
Jennifer was very flexible and was quick to respond. The cabin was clean and very comfortable.

Cozy Cabin on Kirby Lake - Stuga Wald
We loved our stay at this sweet little cabin! The space was cozy and so thoughtfully laid out and stocked with everything we needed. The stunning outdoor space made the experience so special. We enjoyed kayaking, reading in the hammocks and comfortable chairs, grilling, having fires, and watching pileated and red-headed woodpeckers feeding their babies right next to the cabin. We will be back!

Quirky Grindstone Lake A-frame with sandy beach
Great location on a great fishing lake. Only 12-15 minutes from town, dock to tie up your own boat if you bring it, and only a 50ft walk to the water.

Luxe&private/Clear sand lake/Sauna/EV chgr/Dogs OK
We had a wonderful stay! The house was clean, well stocked, and the hosts were very communicative and responsive, even making sure we were aware of some severe weather rolling in. Enjoyed the sauna on the cooler days, and the paddleboards and paddle boat on the warmer days. Kids loved the bunk room. Beautiful clean lake with the added bonus of loons, eagles, and green herons. Nice washer and dryer, and the EV charger was a huge plus. Definitely hope to return!

Pet-Friendly Lakeside Cottage w/ Kayaks and Canoe!
Perfect place to get away and relax. We loved the little walk down to the dock on the small, private lake. The fire pit was well thought out and stocked with plenty of wood for tons of s’more’s. Ping pong table was great entertainment. We will be back!

Lakefront Cabin on LCO - Pontoon available to rent
Great place to spend a weekend. Everything was very clean and inviting.

Cabin 2 - Northwoods themed 1 BR, lakefront cabin.
Scott was friendly and helpful! Cabin 2 was beautiful and had a great view of the lake! Highly recommend and we will be back again!

Lakeside Northwoods Retreat
My family loved the stay. Great and fast communication!

Eagle Crest Cottage on Lipsett Lake
Wow! This was my first Airbnb stay and Keriann set the bar high. She thought of every amenity a guest might need, and then thought of more. The cottage offered a quiet place to stay with a beautiful lakeside view. We enjoyed listening to the resident eagles chattering from their nearby nest and watching them soar to find their next meal. The two-level deck is huge and offered a wonderful space for us to gather. Everything inside the home was labeled, so we could easily find anything we were looking for. The beds were more comfortable than ours at home and there was an ample supply of extra pillows and blankets. Our only regret was booking 2 nights instead of many more. Keriann was so kind and so responsive to help us secure our last minute reservation. She is a gem of a host. Her commitment to provide the highest level of hospitality at her property is unmatched. We can’t wait to book our next visit to Eagle Crest Cottage!

Quaint lakefront cabin
It was the perfect space for a long weekend getaway -- quiet, tranquil, and quaint. Loved the deck overlooking the water and the fire ring with Adirondack chairs available to enjoy the nice evening. The inside space was sufficient for our needs, and good for a night in to watch a movie. Very responsive host that was helpful in resolving any needed elements right away. Easy check in and check out process. Would definitely stay there again :)

Cozy Cabins, Lake Views & Miles of Hiking Trails!
We are frequent visitors to this relaxing, natural woodland cabin because it has everything we love without having to leave the property. Loons, beaver kits at play, trumpeter swans, wildflowers and lots of trails to wander. The cabin has been updated with a very comfortable sofa and new lighting making for a great place to stretch out with a book. We will undoubtably return.

Northwoods: Private Modern Cozy Lake Cabin
This cabin is amazing! Really well kept and a beautiful location. My only regret is that we couldn’t stay longer!! Had everything that you could want at the cabin and Stefan was so quick to respond to any questions we had. Fantastic stay at a perfect location!

Lakefront cabin, pet friendly!
This is 3rd or 4th time we have stayed at Bailey's and loved it. The house is beautiful and she provides tons of ammenities. Love sitting on deck looking over the lake and watching the geese with their babies, ducks and babies and plenty of Eagles.

Cozy A-frame on sandy beachfront
Memorial weekend with the family! Had a great time. The house was perfect with lots of charm. Enjoyed days of fishing, kayaking, kids swimming, and just enjoying the view! Made our annual trip up to Hayward which was great as always and only 15 minutes a way! Nights were spent around the fire cooking s’mores, playing Pictionary, and blank slate! Great house and great hosts!

Your guide to Hayward
Welcome to Hayward
If you prefer your recreation outdoors, Hayward is an all-terrain, all-season playground, a hub for (honest-to-goodness) lumberjacks, fishers, mountain bikers, and snow-sports enthusiasts alike. Maps of this corner of Northeastern Wisconsin look like a green doily spread over a blue pond — the land is so riddled with lakes that it’s a wonder highways can traverse the region — and the town’s most notable landmark is a giant, toothy statue of a muskie outside the National Freshwater Fishing Hall of Fame. Visitors who aren’t paddling or water-skiing may be teeing up on one of the area’s eight golf courses or hiking deep in the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest. The city of Hayward itself is equal parts rustic and welcoming, with plentiful restaurants (don’t miss Friday night fish fry!) and shops. Wintertime visitors spend their days whizzing through the woods on snowmobiles and skis, returning to town only to warm up.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Hayward
There is never a bad time to visit Hayward, a four-season destination for outdoor activities. That said, the weather in northeastern Wisconsin is never demure: After a too-short spring in May, the temperatures can hit the 80s from June through early September, and all those lakes contribute to the mugginess of the air. Summer is peak season for hikers, fly fishers, and golfers. In July, the Lac Courte Oreilles Ojibwe Tribe, whose lands are just outside town, hold their Honor the Earth Pow Wow, drawing people from all over the Upper Midwest. The lakes grow slightly quieter in the fall, though off-road bikers descend on Hayward in September for the Chequamegon MTB Festival. From October through April, temperatures drop below — sometimes far below — the freezing point, and the thick layer of snow turns Hayward into a playground for snowmobile riders and cross-country skiers.
Top things to do in Hayward
Fishing
The 56,000 acres of water in the Hayward Lakes Area are legendary among Wisconsin’s anglers, who hop from lake to lake in search of walleye, bluegill, and some of the largest muskies the Midwest produces. Chippewa Flowage is the area’s largest lake, and Lac Courte Oreilles and Round Lakes two of the clearest. Outfitters in town will supply whatever you need for a day of fishing, and you can find guide services and boat rentals if you don’t tow your own. Taking a break on land? Stop by the National Fresh Water Fishing Hall of Fame for education programs, displays of lures and record-sized catches, and perhaps a Bigfoot sighting.
Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest
Drive east on Highway 77 from Hayward for about 40 miles and you enter the 858,400-acre Chequamegon National Forest. Hundreds of miles of trails for hikers and mountain bikers bring you through leafy stands of maple and oak, wide swaths of white pine, and deep ravines, and there are dozens of campgrounds to stake a tent in. If you connect with the North Country Scenic Trail, you may encounter weathered backpackers making their way along this eight-state route. In winter, dedicated bikers swap out their summer rides for fat-tire bikes, sharing the groomed trails with snowshoers.
Lumberjack Sports
Hayward is home to the Lumberjack World Championships every July, when burly woodspeople compete in speed-climbing, chopping, sawing, and the ever-popular log-rolling competitions. From May through September, the arena hosts a popular lumberjack show five days a week, with a family-friendly mix of comedy skits and feats of skill. Even if you can’t swing an ax yourself, you can putt-putt on a lumberjack mini golf course and load up on woodsy souvenirs.
