Wascana Lake — One of the World's Great Urban Lakes

Wascana Lake is one of the world's largest urban lakes — its 2,300-acre park setting, including the Saskatchewan Legislature, the Royal Saskatchewan Museum and the MacKenzie Art Gallery, creates a parkland address unmatched in any Canadian prairie city. Lakeshore Drive along the north shore, and the Albert Street and Broad Street corridors leading to the lake, deliver estate addresses with direct park and lake access. Rowing, sailing and skating on the lake are front-door amenities for residents of these coveted blocks. The Legislature dome's copper green reflection in the lake, the sandhill cranes staging on the waterfowl park islands in autumn, and the winter skating trail across the frozen surface are the particular pleasures of Wascana waterfront living — a relationship with a publicly held natural and cultural landscape that private lake ownership cannot replicate. Parliament Area properties on the north shore command views of both the Legislature and the lake simultaneously — the most storied view in Regina's residential market.

Lakeshore & Wascana Waterfront — FAQs

Is Wascana Lake actually one of the world's largest urban lakes?
Yes — Wascana Lake is an artificial reservoir created in 1883 within the Wascana Centre, which at approximately 2,300 acres is one of the largest urban parks in the world (considerably larger than New York's Central Park). The combination of lake, parkland, cultural institutions and the Saskatchewan Legislature makes Wascana Centre a unique urban amenity that defines Regina's luxury real estate market and sets it apart from every other Canadian prairie city.
What activities are available on and around Wascana Lake?
Wascana Lake offers rowing, paddling, sailing (small craft), winter skating, cycling and running on the Wascana Centre trail system, bird watching at the Wascana Waterfowl Park and Nature Centre, and walking access to the Saskatchewan Legislature, the Royal Saskatchewan Museum, the MacKenzie Art Gallery and the Conexus Arts Centre. It is the most amenity-rich setting of any prairie city waterfront — a front-door cultural and natural resource of extraordinary richness.
What price range should I expect for Wascana waterfront properties?
Estate properties on Lakeshore Drive North and the Wascana waterfront corridor range from $700,000 to $2M+ depending on proximity to the lake, view orientation, lot size and build quality. Direct Lakeshore Drive properties with Legislature dome views command the upper range at $800K–$2M. Albert Street and Broad Street corridor properties start at $700K and increase with lake proximity and build quality.
Can residents actually access Wascana Lake from their properties?
Wascana Centre is public parkland — residents of Lakeshore Drive and adjacent streets have direct walking access to the lake shore, the Wascana Centre trail system, boat launches and recreational areas. While there is no private dock access (the lake is within a public park), the proximity means a short walk to every water activity the lake offers. The public nature of the park means residents share their lakefront with all of Regina — which many find adds rather than diminishes the vitality of the setting.
What cultural institutions are near Wascana waterfront properties?
The Wascana Centre precinct includes the Saskatchewan Legislature, the Royal Saskatchewan Museum, the MacKenzie Art Gallery, the Conexus Arts Centre, the Wascana Centre Authority headquarters and the University of Regina — all within walking distance of Lakeshore Drive estates. The cultural density of the Wascana precinct is extraordinary for a city of Regina's size and provides a level of walkable cultural access that most Canadian cities of any size would envy.
