Cormorant Lake is in the Saskatchewan River basin[2] and is primarily fed from the northeast from Mitchell Lake and Yawningstone Lake, and from the Southwest from Clearwater Lake and exits to the southeast into Moose Lake. There are two large islands in the western portion of the lake, and a chain of islands cutting northeast–southwest across the middle of the lake.[1]
