Wakaw Lake is a lake near Wakaw, Saskatchewan, Canada. It is a 45 minute drive northeast of the city of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, and about an equal distance south of Prince Albert, Saskatchewan. It takes its name from a Cree word meaning "crooked."

The lake hosts a regional park with camping, golfing and swimming as well as many cabins. It is a long, narrow body of water situated in aspen parkland and home to several species of fish including Northern Pike and Walleye. While not a deep lake, it still suffices for some watersports.
