This is one of the most popular recreational lakes in the province, with a very popular campground, boat launches and beaches, and many cabin developments and communities around the lake.
Emma Lake is actually three different connected lakes, with quite a few islands, bays and coves. The two southern lakes have the most development with a large number of cabins and communities. Neis Beach, Guise Beach, Sunnyside Beach, Sunset Bay and the community of Emma Lake are all on the southern lake.
The northern lake and part of the middle lake are surrounded by Great Blue Heron Provincial Park.
Emma lake was named after Emma (Arcand-Gravel) Morrier who was the wife of the district surveyor Joseph-Eldedge Morrier, and sister of Christopher Gravel for whom nearby Christopher Lake was named.
