Wakaw Lake
Wakaw Lake is a lake near Wakaw, Saskatchewan, Canada. It is located within a 1-hour drive to the north-east of the city of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan (102 kilometres), and 73 kilometres to the south of the city of Prince Albert, Saskatchewan. It takes its name from a Cree word meaning "crooked." There are currently about 800 cabins located on the lake, some of which are winterised and occupied year-round. Some of these cabins have permanent boat houses, but a bylaw has been issued that no more boat houses are to be built. Some cabin-owners are  getting around this by rigging up temporary coveralls. The lake hosts a regional park with over 300 camp sites, a 9-hole golf course and a restaurant. It is a long, narrow body of water situated in aspen parkland and home to several species of fish including Northern Pike, Walleye, and Perch. While not a deep lake, it still suffices for some watersports. In general, the bottom of the lake is muddy, shallow and covered in seaweed, but there are a few areas where a deep, rocky bottom is found.
