Kipabiskau Regional Park, commonly referred to as "Kip", is nestled in the scenic Barrier Valley. The lake itself is approximately 10 kms long and 1 km wide. The main part of the park is located on the north shore of the lake, although the park controls most of the land surrounding the lakeshore, the largest portion of the park's land is left in its natural state, and being a wooded area it is a sanctuary for wildlife. The park opens from May long weekend to the September long weekend, although winter usage is increasing with sports like ice fishing and snowmobile gaining in popularity.
Nine hole grass green golf course, miniature golf, licensed dining, gas services, paint ball & camping all within 1 km of park entrance. Tisdale, Naicam and Melfort snowmobile trails are all accessible at Kipabiskau.
"Kip" became a Regional Park in 1965, however, the lake formerly known as Stoney Lake, was a popular destination since the 1920's, drawing visitors primarily from Tisdale and the surrounding rural areas. In the mid 1940's, interest in developing the lake grew and many volunteers worked hard to clear the land, and level the site for the beach, then hauled tons of sand to form the beach. Tisdale Fish and Game League took over the resort in the late 1940's and changed the name of the resort and lake to Kipabiskau, a Cree word meaning Stoney Lake.
Campsites: Level grass/gravel. Walkways/Trails: Level gravel. This park features a wheelchair accessible store/visitor information, hall and scenic deck. New fully accessible Shower house Washroom facility due to open in spring of 2020.

Swimming lessons are offered through July and early August by a qualified instructor, if available. The sandy beach encourages swimming and is equipped with a swim dock and children slides.
The playground features two swing sets, teeter totters, a double slide, climbing apparatus and a large sandbox, as well as ample room to play.
There are 2 large floating docks at the boat launch. A filleting house offers an enclosed screen building with running water for cleaning the catch. Perch, northern pike and walleye offer great fishing opportunities. Water sports are very popular here and the Kipabiskau Water Sports Club is the largest waterski club in Saskatchewan. A wakeboard/water ski clinic is hosted by the club annually, generally the first week in July.
A network of nature trails provide approximately 10 kms for hiking through the woods. One trail provides some great views of the lake and park. There is a map at the trailhead showing the location and names of the trails. Trails are mowed.
