Two Sisters Lake

View of Two Sisters Lake, the 719 acre lake in Rhinelander, Wisconsin

Two Sisters Lake is one of the most overlooked high-quality lakes in the Northwoods. At over 700 acres with depths exceeding 60 feet and clarity beyond 20 feet, it delivers size, depth, and water quality that rival far more famous names.

Its relative isolation—roughly 20 minutes from Rhinelander or Minocqua—keeps it quieter than lakes of similar caliber. The shoreline is scenic and refined, and the overall atmosphere feels upscale but understated.

For buyers willing to trade immediate town proximity for exceptional water quality and space, Two Sisters consistently ranks as a top-tier option.

Times are approximate. I just took a rough average from different points around the lake.

This is a summary based on available information.

Two Sisters Lake is known for good fishing for walleyes, muskies, bass, and panfish, with deep, clear water and strong structure helping support quality fish. Anglers typically work points, humps, and steep breaks with jigs, rigs, and deep‑running crankbaits, timing trips around dawn, dusk, and windy days to offset the clarity. Muskies and larger walleyes often relate to mid‑depth structure and edges near basin areas, making trolling and systematic casting effective. Because the lake is less heavily trafficked than some marquee destinations, dedicated anglers can find excellent fishing with relatively modest pressure.

I had AI give me the coordinates for the launches I had on file. They are not super accurate, but should give a rough idea of where you can find the landings. If no coordinates were available at all I didn't link to the map.
