Greenwater Lake - SaskLakes

Greenwater Lake is a popular recreation destination located within the Greenwater Lake Provincial Park.

The lake is accessible from Highway 38 and a provincial park pass is required.

There are many services and activities available at the lake including fishing, boating, boat rentals, camping, cabin rentals, a great beach, hiking trails and a golf course. There is something for everyone to do at Greenwater Lake!

Other than the provincial park there are no communities on the lake. Porcupine Plain is the closest town about 30km from the main park area on the lake.

The name of the lake is based on the colour of the trees surrounding the lake reflecting off of the water, and not the colour of the water itself, so don't let the name scare you off!

This lake has been personally visited by myself, Matthew Siemens.

We had a nice late camping trip here. Very quite, hardly anyone around, leaves were gorgeous!
