Duck Lake is a lake in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. Much of the western shore is within the Beardy's 97 and Okemasis 96 Indian reserve while most of the remainder of the lake is within the Rural Municipality of Duck Lake No. 463. The town of Duck Lake, which was named after the lake, is at the north-eastern corner. Just south of the town, on the eastern shore, is the Willow Cree Reserve. Highway 11 runs along the eastern shore while Highway 212 runs along the northern one.
Just north of the lake, and west of the town, is the site of the Battle of Duck Lake from the 1885 North-West Rebellion.
