Cassels Lake (originally known as White Bear Lake) is a lake located within the Municipality of Temagami, in the Nipissing District, Ontario, Canada. It contains numerous portages, campsites and is one of three lakes on the eastern edge of the White Bear Forest.
In the 1920s a log dam was constructed at the narrows connecting Cassels Lake and Rabbit Lake to float logs from the surrounding area out to the Ottawa River.[1] The water level in numerous lakes close to Temagami was increased numerous feet.[1] The Gillies' Bros. logging company then cut the trees from the flooded forest area leaving behind the snags and stumps seen in the water.[1]
