Cranberry Lake
Cranberry Lake is a 924-acre lake on the Eagle River Chain positioned slightly farther from town than some of the smaller in-town basins. With an average depth of about 9 feet and roughly 22 owners per mile of shoreline, it strikes a balance between activity and breathing room.
The wooded shoreline, broad basins, and sheltered bays give it a strong Northwoods feel while still providing full chain connectivity. Peak-season traffic is steady, but generally a bit lighter than on the busiest central lakes.
Buyers drawn to Cranberry often want chain access, good multi-species fishing, and a slightly more relaxed setting that still allows easy runs into town by boat or car.

This is a summary based on available information.
Fishing reports and local discussions highlight Cranberry as a solid spot for walleye, smallmouth and largemouth bass, northern pike, panfish, and muskies, benefitting from the chain’s forage and connections. Key areas include weedlines, points, and subtle current zones where water moves in and out of adjoining lakes, especially during low‑light periods and in spring and fall transitions. Summer fishing often rewards those who concentrate on edges away from the heaviest traffic lanes, using slip bobbers, live bait rigs, and crankbaits to pick apart structure while pleasure boats work the main routes. For cabin owners, Cranberry provides both everyday action close to the dock and easy runs to other chain lakes when they want a change of scenery or to chase a specific species bite.
