Kipabiskau Lake is a medium-sized (1065 acre) recreational and fishing lake 22km E of Pleasantdale and 43km SE of Melfort. Access to the lake is from a gravel road off Highway 35.
The lake is long and narrow, running along the course of the Barrier River. The lake has a great beach, boat launch, lots of campsites and cabins.
It's a popular destination for fishing and water sports. The lake has an active water sports club with a slalom course and jump ramp.

The Kipabiskau Regional Park, the hamlet of Kipabiskau and Stoney Lake Bible Camp are along the north shore of the lake. The regional park has a large store, nature trails, sports courts, picnic areas, beach and more.
This lake has been personally visited by myself, Matthew Siemens.
