About this map

The Vilas County Courthouse stands as a central landmark in this northern lake country, where the settlement of Eagle River is surrounded by a dense network of glacial waters and woods. This survey details a complex aquatic landscape, featuring the sprawling Eagle Lake and Catfish Lake, which are linked to other water bodies like Scattering Rice Lake and Yellow Birch Lake. The transition from the town's grid to the natural contours of the Nicolet National Forest in the northeast highlights the area's dual character as a county seat and a premier recreation destination.

Local history and genealogy are anchored by the Eagle River Cem and the Saint Peters Catholic Cem, while the winding course of the Deerskin River and the Vilas Co Snowmobile Trl reflect the seasonal rhythms of the region. From the larger Cranberry Lake to secluded spots like Spirit Lake, the map captures the intricate shoreline developments and the numerous access roads, including Chain O Lakes Rd, that serve this historic Wisconsin waterfront.
