Island Lake is a shallow lake in the west-central part of the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. The lake is in the Mid-boreal Upland ecozone of Canada. There are two large islands and one small island in the lake. On the south-eastern shore is a provincial campground. From the northernmost point of the lake, a creek flows out and to the east where it meets Tea Creek. Tea Creek flows north into Green Lake, which is part of the Beaver River watershed.
