Eyebrow Lake is a man-made marshy lake that parallels the Qu'Appelle River in the southern region of the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. Located in the RM of Huron No. 223, it is the first lake in a series of lakes along the Qu'Appelle River after Qu'Appelle River Dam and Lake Diefenbaker. The next lake downstream is Buffalo Pound Lake. The closest community is the village of Tugaske and while there are no public recreation sites at the lake, it can be accessed by Highway 627. The lake gets its name from the nearby Eyebrow Hills, which are shaped like an eyebrow. The nearby town of Eyebrow and RM of Eyebrow No. 193 are also named after these hills.

| - Eyebrow Lake is a man-made marshy lake that parallels the Qu'Appelle River in the southern region of the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. Located in the RM of Huron No. 223, it is the first lake in a series of lakes along the Qu'Appelle River after Qu'Appelle River Dam and Lake Diefenbaker. The next lake downstream is Buffalo Pound Lake. The closest community is the village of Tugaske and while there are no public recreation sites at the lake, it can be accessed by Highway 627. The lake gets its name from the nearby Eyebrow Hills, which are shaped like an eyebrow. The nearby town of Eyebrow and RM of Eyebrow No. 193 are also named after these hills. The lake is set in the upper Qu'Appelle Valley, which was created about 14,000 years ago during the melting of the last ice age. The valley is noted for its steep sides, flat bottom, and multiple coulees. As such, inflows for Eyebrow Lake include the Qu'Appelle River and multiple streams coming down through the coulees, including Deer Run Creek at the north-western corner. In 1968, a major water management project was begun to offset the effects of periodic droughts in the region. Prior to the project, the location of Eyebrow Lake was a large marsh in the Qu'Appelle River's floodplain. A series of dykes were built creating five basins allowing water levels to be controlled, which resulted in a permanent lake and marshland. The Qu'Appelle River runs along the north and eastern edge of the lake in an aqueduct. (en)
