Nipekamew Lake[1] is a lake in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. The lake is north-east of Clarence-Steepbank Lakes Provincial Park and north-west of Narrow Hills Provincial Park and the Cub Hills.[2] It is a long and narrow lake that runs in a north to south direction and is surrounded by boreal forest, rolling hills, and muskeg.[3] The outflow, Nipekamew River, is at the northern end of the lake and at the southern end of the lake, neighbouring East Trout Lake flows directly into it through a short channel. Several other smaller rivers, such as Nipekamew Creek, also flow into the lake.[4] [5] The lake is part of the Churchill River watershed, which flows into the Hudson Bay.

Nipekamew Lake is in the Northern Saskatchewan Administration District and is accessed from Highways 912 and 927. Highway 912 runs up along the eastern shore and Highway 927 goes to the southern end of the lake and heads west to East Trout Lake and services the resorts in the area.

East Trout-Nipekamew Lakes Recreation Site

East Trout-Nipekamew Lakes Recreation Site is a provincial recreation site at the southern end of Nipekamew Lake and along the south-eastern shore of East Trout Lake.[6] There are three resorts in the park centred on the bay and channel that separate the two lakes. Highway 927 provides access to the park and the resorts.

On the East Trout Lake part of the park is Pine Grove Resort. It features cabin rentals and a campground for accommodations. There is also a convenience store, boat rentals, boat launch, public showers, and washrooms.[7] [8]

Eagle Bay Resort is situated on the bay between the lakes. Like Pine Gove Resort, it also has cabins for rent and a campground. Eagle Bay Resort has a general store, fuel, a boat launch, restaurant, a large sandy beach, and a water trampoline.[9] [10]

Katche Kamp Outfitters is on the same bay as Eagle Bay Resort and also has cabins for rent. It offers many of the same amenities as the other resorts, such as boat rentals, boat launch, store, laundry, showers, etc.[11] [12]
