Without a doubt, the Eagle River's premier water attraction is the Eagle River Chain of Lakes. There are 10 attached lakes on the chain featuring almost 3,600 acres of water. Offering an unlimited variety of water sports, there is an amazing availability of services, accommodations, dining, and entertainment opportunities along with this, part of the largest freshwater chain in the world.
The entire chain is famous for great fishing, especially the prized Muskellunge. There are tournaments held throughout the summer and in the winter for ice fishing. Other popular species that are in these waters are Walleye, Smallmouth & Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, and all varieties of panfish.
While the chain is in the heart of vacationland, none of the lakes are congested. Whether staying at a well-appointed resort with all the amenities or camping lakeside, you are sure to find a place to stay for a perfect visit.
The housing opportunities are vast – from a cozy cottage to a sprawling, luxurious home - it’s all here. A second home or a place to relocate, there is everything here to make for an unforgettable vacation or a dream lifestyle.
At the north end are the 10 lakes in Eagle River. The largest lake is Catfish Lake at 1,012 square acres with a maximum depth of 30 feet. The smallest lake is Lynx Lake at 22 acres, with a maximum depth of 20 feet, and is the most north lake on the chain. Navigable waterbodies on the chain include:
