Prior to 1846, Native Americans inhabited the shores of Hayden Lake.  Legend has it that in 1878 a pioneer named Matt Heyden and another early homesteader, John Hager got into a poker game to see who would name the lake.  Heyden Won. Time altered the spelling to Hayden Lake.  The Hayden Lake country Club was once a recreational stop known as Bozanta Tavern.  During world War II it was an R & R site for service personnel.
