The summer village of Gull Lake is developed on the southern shore, adjacent to Aspen Beach Provincial Park, along Highway 12. A campground is maintained on the western shore, in the summer village of Parkland Beach, close to the town of Rimbey. Sylvan Lake is located km to mi|20|abbr=yes south from Gull Lake.
