Falcon Lake is located in the Whiteshell Provincial Park in southeastern Manitoba, Canada. The lake is about 152 kilometres east of Winnipeg on the Trans-Canada Highway near the Ontario border.[1][2] The lake is named for Métis poet and songwriter Pierre Falcon (1793–1876).[3] It appears on the Palliser map of 1865.[4]

The lake inspired the name of the TV series Falcon Beach although that fictional location is set on another Manitoba lake. The lake was also a favourite summer destination of Neil Young, who wrote a song entitled "Falcon Lake" while with Buffalo Springfield.
