About Hayward

The Town of Hayward spans the scenic, wooded countryside wrapping around the city of Hayward in northwestern Wisconsin. If you are looking to relocate here, this is where you will find larger lots, quiet lakeside neighborhoods like Chief Lake, and plenty of privacy surrounded by dense pine forests. Scenic drives along Highway 77 and County Road B connect you to prime fishing on nearby lakes and paddling along the Namekagon River. You get the peace and quiet of Northwoods living, while remaining only a short drive from the dining, grocery stores, and healthcare in downtown Hayward.
