Lakeshore Living
The Very Best of
Amenities
Jackfish Lake provides a wonderful setting for boating and all water sports, and excellent fishing, with a diverse population including perch, walleye, pike, burbot and whitefish. The lake hosts an annual ice fishing derby in February.
The area around the lake features numerous hiking and cycling trails, with ample bird- and wildlife-watching opportunities, especially at the nearby Murray Lake Bird Sanctuary.
Jackfish Lodge offers world-class golfing, or you can play a quick round “right in your backyard” at the Meota Lakeside Golf Club adjacent to the village.
Located 32 kilometres south, North Battleford provides all the shopping, dining, leisure and cultural amenities of a city, yet maintains a “small-town” feel.
