   Alder Lake is on the Manitowish Waters Chain of Lakes. While part of the chain, it still gives a secluded feel thanks to the one mile or so it takes to get to Manitowish Lake. Alder Lake is easy to access on the east side. The west side calls for a longer drive as you have to navigate around the chain. It is a deep 264 acre public lake that is a 10-15 minute drive from Manitowish Waters depending on where your home is located. The water is clear and there is nice vegetation surrounding the lake. All lake homes and lots for sale on this lake are listed below. The lake has a clarity of almost 12 feet and an average depth of 16 feet. There are less than 11 owners per mile of shoreline.
