Voyageur Lake

View of Voyageur Lake, the 134 acre lake in Eagle River, Wisconsin

Voyageur Lake sits at the heart of the Eagle River Chain, positioned between Eagle Lake and Catfish Lake so that boaters can easily head north or south from their pier. The shoreline near the main channels is active, with resorts, marinas, and restaurants within short runs, giving the lake an energetic, central‑hub feel in summer.

Its appeal comes from location—owners are in the middle of the action with immediate access to dining, events, and full chain connectivity. While not a prestige lake for water quality, it is highly functional and desirable for buyers who want to be in the center of chain activity.

This is a summary based on available information.

As a core part of the chain, Voyageur shares the region’s well‑known multi‑species fishery, with walleyes, muskies, bass, northern pike, and panfish moving through its basins and narrows. Key spots include necked‑down areas where water flows between Voyageur, Eagle, and Catfish, as well as weedlines and points that intersect travel routes. Because the lake sees steady boat traffic, especially on weekends, many anglers focus on dawn, dusk, and shoulder seasons, using jigs, live bait rigs, and crankbaits to target edges away from the busiest lanes. For cabin owners, Voyageur offers the convenience of short runs to proven spots and the ability to quickly hop to neighboring lakes when they want different scenery or fishing conditions.

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.
