Heritage Lake
Heritage Lake is a smaller (683 acre) recreational and fishing lake located 18km NNE of the Resort Village of Candle Lake and 87km NNE of Prince Albert. The lake is accessible from Highway 913 which is a gravel road.
Heritage Lake Recreation Site is on the eastern side of the lake and has a boat launch with a dock, outhouses, and several picnic areas. The shoreline is sandy and suitable for swimming on either side of the boat launch. There is also a Girl Guides Camp and Bible Camp at the lake.
Nestled in the woods with a sandy bottom, Heritage Lake is also a popular dive location used by the Saskatchewan Underwater Council and others.
There are Walleye and Northern Pike in Heritage Lake. Some of my earliest fishing memories are from visiting Heritage Lake with my dad and brothers!
Heritage Lake is only a short distance from Candle Lake and can be a good option when the weather is bad on the much larger lake.
Formerly known as "Little Sandy Lake" the lake was renamed "Heritage Lake" in 1963 after the first Girl Guide camps took place at the lake.
This lake has been personally visited by myself, Matthew Siemens.
