Primrose Lake is a large lake in Saskatchewan and Alberta, Canada. The lake straddles the Alberta/Saskatchewan border, with most of the water surface in Saskatchewan.

Primrose Lake has a total area of 448 km², with 444 km² water area (of which 17.7 km² in Alberta) and lies at an elevation of 599 m[1]. It is connected to Cold Lake by the Martineau River.
