Little Bear Lake

Little Bear Lake is a large (3,844 acre) recreational and fishing lake located 74km NE of the Resort Village of Candle Lake and 142km NNE of Prince Albert.

Lake Trout, Northern Pike, Walleye and Perch can be found in the lake.

On the southern part of the lake are Little Bear Lake Lodge, Little Bear Lake Campground, Little Bear Lake Recreation Site, a subdivision of cabins and a small airstrip. There is a public boat launch and a really nice sandy beach in the Recreation Site.

The southern tip of the lake is in Narrow Hills Provincial Park.

There is another resort about half way up the lake called Moose Horn Lodge.

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