Burnett County Airport (ICAO: KRZN, FAA LID: RZN) is a county-owned public-use airport located three nautical miles (6 km) north of the central business district of Siren, in Burnett County, Wisconsin, United States.[1] According to the FAA's National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2009–2013, it is categorized as a general aviation facility.[2]

Burnett County is in northwestern Wisconsin, on the border with Minnesota; Burnett County Airport is about 95 miles (153 km) northeast of Minneapolis, Minnesota by car. The rural area is known for its abundant lakes and associated recreational opportunities, as well as for its wintertime snowmobile trails.

Although many U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, this facility is assigned RZN by the FAA but has no designation from the IATA[3] (which assigned RZN to Turlatovo Airport in Ryazan, Russia[4]).
