Haywood County Detention Center sits in Waynesville, a mountain town in western North Carolina, about 25 miles west of Asheville. The facility operates inside the Haywood County Law Enforcement Center under Sheriff Bill Wilke. With 109 beds, it is one of the smaller county jails in the region. One thing that catches many families off guard: there is no public online roster. You have to call the automated inmate information line at (828) 452-6670 and press option 1 to find out if someone is there. Visits are available four days a week, but you must schedule at least 24 hours ahead at inmatesales.com. Mail goes directly to the facility at 1620 Brown Avenue, not through a third-party processor.
