About New Post

New Post is a small, quiet community tucked into the Northwoods of Sawyer County in northwestern Wisconsin. Located on the Lac Courte Oreilles reservation along the shores of the Chippewa Flowage, it offers a peaceful rural lifestyle surrounded by dense pine forests and quiet bays. Everyday life here is closely tied to the natural landscape, where fishing, boating, and enjoying the outdoors are part of the daily routine, all shaped by the enduring cultural heritage of the Lac Courte Oreilles Ojibwe.

The community carries a unique history tied directly to the waters around it. It was established in the 1920s after the flooding of the historic Ojibwe village of Pahquawong, when residents relocated to build a new home on higher ground. Today, New Post offers a relaxed, tight-knit setting for anyone drawn to scenic lake views, rich cultural traditions, and easy access to the great outdoors.
