Al Capone's former hideout / former tourist attraction sold on the court house steps in Hayward Wisconsin. Chippewa Valley Bank was the only bidder, it was also the bank that foreclosed. Capone's retreat in Northern Wisconsin featured 18 inch thick stone walls and guard towers. Nine separate buildings on the property also included a bunk house and a jail. The property sold for 2.6 million dollars.
Sawyer County Wisconsin has much more to offer than Capone's Hideout. The northwoods are beautiful and relaxing. Hayward Lakes is an equally striking destination with plenty of antique stores, and artisans. Canoeing, horse back riding through the forests and lumberjack exhibitions are high on the list of things to do. You can also find the National Fresh Water Fishing Hall of Fame and Museum here. If these attractions aren't enough to fill your days, this is golf country too. There are plenty of challenges on a number of golf courses in the area. I'm from Columbus Ga. but Fishing, Golf, fresh air in Hayward and Sawyer County Wisconsin sounds really inviting.

Um, that is interesting. Is it true, I will research it. I have always wanted to buy something like that once in my life. I bet it might make a good B&B.
