Cedar Lake
Cedar Lake north of Mercer is a 187-acre shallow lake located about 17 minutes from town. The basin provides enough room for relaxed cruising and multi-species fishing while remaining manageable and uncrowded.
Wooded shoreline and scattered cabins maintain a traditional Northwoods look, and its location near the Wisconsin–Michigan border keeps traffic lighter than in-town Mercer lakes. Cedar appeals to buyers who value scenery, elbow room, and a quieter setting with reasonable access to town.

This is a summary based on available information.
Cedar Lake typically supports a classic northern Wisconsin mix of panfish, bass, pike, and walleyes, with fish using both weeds and soft structure. Anglers often work shoreline breaks, weed edges, and any small mid‑lake humps with jigs, plastics, and crankbaits. Because it is off the main beaten path, fishing pressure tends to be moderate, which helps keep fish more willing for visiting anglers. It’s a solid all‑around lake for people who want both scenery and multi‑species opportunity.
