Lac Eauclaire is a small recreational and fishing lake located 12km NNE of the Resort Village of Chitek Lake and 58km ESE of the City of Meadow Lake. The lake is entirely within Pelican Lake 191C Reserve. The lake is accessible from Highway 945 (gravel).

This is a very pretty lake with crystal clear water. It's a great destination for swimming, paddling, boating, and fishing.

There is a beach, campground and boat launch at the lake managed by the Pelican Lake Band.

Northern Pike, Yellow Perch, Lake Whitefish, Burbot, White Sucker and Cisco can be found in Lac Eauclaire. Although the lake once had an active lake trout stocking program they are no longer found in the lake. The lake trout stocking program was discontinued in 2011.

According to the 2020 Sask Anglers Guide: This lake is now located on federal land and is no longer managed by Saskatchewan. Due to this change, angling is not permitted under a Saskatchewan angling licence and the lake has been removed from the guide. I'm not entirely sure what this means, and lots of people are still out fishing on the lake.
