Cree Lake^[3] is a large glacial lake in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. The lake is the fourth largest in the province and is located west of Reindeer Lake and south of Lake Athabasca in the Mackenzie River drainage basin. Cree Lake is the remnant of a large proglacial lake that flowed south into the Churchill River during the last ice age.

Cree Lake has no highway access. Floatplanes are the means used to access the lodges and amenities on the lake.
