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.

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]
