Dore Lake

Dore Lake settlement stands on the southern shore of South Bay, surrounded by extensive boreal forests and clear waters of the seventh largest lake in Saskatchewan.

The name originates from the French Canadian word for walleye, reflecting the early French presence and influence in the Saskatchewan region during colonial times.

The community maintains traditional fishing practices, with local facilities dedicated to processing walleye, northern pike, and lake whitefish throughout the fishing season.

The village administration operates on Mondays and Tuesdays from 9 AM to 4 PM, while retail stores at Dore Lake Lodge remain open daily between Victoria Day and September.

The lake system contains multiple landforms, including Big Island, Iskwasoo Island, Burnt Island, Smith Island, and protected areas such as Caribou Flats Ecological Reserve.
