Sunset Lake

View of Sunset Lake, the 207 acre lake in Eagle River, Wisconsin

Sunset Lake is one of the prettiest smaller lakes in the Eagle River area, known for its light blue water color and strong clarity approaching 17–18 feet. Despite being just over 200 acres, it feels more exclusive than its size suggests.

There is no public access, so use is limited to property owners and their guests. That privacy, combined with attractive water color and respectable depth, keeps traffic low and preserves a calm, high-quality feel. Shoreline density is moderate with good spacing between homes, and the drive to Eagle River is quick and easy.

For buyers who want beautiful water and privacy without needing chain access or a massive basin, Sunset stands out among small lakes in its corridor.

This is a summary based on available information.

Clear, private lakes like Sunset typically support solid panfish and bass populations, with pike and the possibility of stocked gamefish depending on management. The combination of clear water and limited pressure means fish can be wary in bright conditions but may also grow to good sizes, especially where catch‑and‑release practices are common. Anglers often focus on early and late windows, working weed edges, points, and moderate breaks with subtle presentations and lighter line. For cabin owners, the lack of public access turns Sunset into a semi‑private fishing club, where a small group of regulars can fine‑tune patterns without competing with heavy outside pressure.
