Katherine Lake
Katherine Lake is one of the premier lakes in the Minocqua area. With 524 acres of water, roughly 22 feet of clarity, and an average depth around 16 feet, it delivers the kind of clean, swimmable, blue-water look buyers consistently chase.
Despite being just minutes from downtown Minocqua, much of the shoreline remains undeveloped or held in larger parcels. With only about 10 owners per mile and more than 5 acres of water per owner, Katherine feels more spacious and refined than many in-town lakes.
Its combination of strong water quality, attractive shoreline, and immediate access to restaurants, shopping, and marinas has made it one of the most sought-after addresses in the area. Boat traffic increases during peak summer periods—as you would expect given the location and quality—but the lake’s size and layout allow it to handle activity without feeling cramped.
For buyers who want high-quality water, long-term value, and true convenience without sacrificing aesthetics, Katherine consistently rises to the top of the conversation.
