With a slogan like "Wisconsin's Playground," Shawano County promises entertainment for the whole family. As the country of the Menominee Native American tribe, Shawano County is home to several casinos, including the Menominee Casino-Bingo-Hotel in Keshena. The lakes and rivers in the county provide ample opportunity for a wide variety of water sports. There are also several museums dedicated to transportation, logging and pioneer life located in small communities throughout the county. On the shores of Shawano Lake, in the small town of Shawano, there is the local municipal airport, a lakeside campground, several public parks, the Shawano County Historical Society and a handful of motels.
Less than a mile north of the Shawano Municipal Airport, the Shorewest Resort Motel provides lakeside accommodations that are a step above roughing it at the nearby campground. The accommodations at Shorewest vary in size and amenities, with standard rooms featuring either one or two beds, many of which come with microwaves, mini-fridges and coffee makers. The resort also has two bedroom units with kitchenettes that have full refrigerators, microwaves, oven stoves and living rooms with dining tables.
