Island Lake[1] is a shallow lake in the west-central part of the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. The lake is in the Mid-boreal Upland ecozone of Canada.[2] There are two large islands and one small island in the lake. On the south-eastern shore is a provincial campground. From the northernmost point of the lake, a creek flows out and to the east where it meets Tea Creek. Tea Creek flows north into Green Lake, which is part of the Beaver River watershed.[3]
Island Lake Recreation Site [4] is a small, rustic provincial campground. The park includes the south-eastern shore of the lake and the three islands within the lake. Access is from a 6km (04miles) gravel road that starts at the intersection of Highways 943 and 945.[5]
