Kimball Lake[1] is a lake in Meadow Lake Provincial Park[2] in the Canadian Province of Saskatchewan in the boreal forest ecozone of Canada.[3] The lake is located near the centre of the park, north of the Waterhen River and Little Raspberry Lake[4] and south of First Mustus Lake. Rusty and Greig Lakes are to the east. Several small streams feed into the lake and the outflow is at the southern shore, which feeds into the Waterhen River, a tributary of Beaver River.[5] The Beaver River, in turn, flows north into Lac Île-à-la-Crosse and the Churchill River, a major tributary in the Hudson Bay drainage basin.
The lake is accessed from Highway 224, which runs along its northern shore. Also on the northern shore is a small subdivision of cabins, and along the eastern part of the lake is Kimball Lake Beach and Campground.
