North Nokomis Lake

   North Nokomis is a bit of a forgotten lake. It is tucked away near County Rd D and has a lot of state land around it, so there aren't many homes (about 6 per mile of shoreline). The lake has very clear (15 ft clarity) and deep (average depth of 30 ft) water, and because of its isolated location, is quiet. Though isolated, the lake is less than 15 minutes from St. Germain and just over 20 minutes to Eagle River and Minocqua. I have heard that the lake has great fishing. The levels of the lake do fluctuate a few feet because the cranberry marsh to the south uses lake water for their crops. North Nokomis Lake is a clear, deep, lightly populated lake tucked near County Road D, surrounded by a significant amount of public land. With very few homes and an isolated feel, it tends to be overlooked compared to more famous neighbors, which keeps boat traffic low even in peak season. The water is notably clear and deeper than many lakes in the area, giving it a cool, almost "up north of up north" character. It's tucked near County Road D and ringed by a large amount of public land, so there are relatively few homes for a lake with such clear, deep water. It feels overlooked compared to better-known neighbors, which keeps traffic light while still placing you within 15-20 minutes of St. Germain, Eagle River, and Minocqua. Buyers who want a quiet, high-quality waterbody within 15-20 minutes of St. Germain, Eagle River, and Minocqua often view North Nokomis as a hidden gem.
