Onaway is a city in Latah County, Idaho, United States. The population was 187 at the 2010 census, down from 230 in 2000.
The name sources from the mill works at nearby Potlatch to the west, as workers would frequent the bars after work. When a wife called and asked where her husband was she would be told he was "Onaway" home. Onaway is located between Potlatch and Princeton on State Highway 6.
