Europe Lake, is a lake near Gills Rock in Door County, Wisconsin. It is the northeasternmost lake in Wisconsin. The lake is mainly a shallow lowland marsh, similar to nearby Kangaroo Lake. It has a maximum depth of 10 feet.[1] Fish include Panfish, Smallmouth bass, Northern pike, Walleye and Perch.[1]
The lake was once part of Lake Michigan until a drop in Lake Michigan's water levels closed off the bay and made it a lake.[2]
