Mistohay Lake

Mistohay Lake is a medium-sized (1484 acre) recreational lake within Meadow Lake Provincial Park and 15km NE of the town of Goodsoil.

The lake is just off Highway 224 which runs along the south end of the lake. The much larger Lac des Îles is to the west and Matheson Lake with another campground is east along the highway.

There is a non-electric campground at the lake, with a playground, outhouses, a playground, fish-filleting shack, and a boat launch.

Northern Pike, Walleye, Yellow Perch, Cisco, and Lake Whitefish can be found in the lake. It is occasionally stocked with Walleye. Please note there is a custom limit for walleye on the lake.
