Pinehouse Lake (Woods Cree: ᑭᓀᐱᑯ ᓵᑲᐦᐃᑲᓂᕽ, romanized: kinêpiko-sâkahikanihk, lit. 'at the Snake Lake') is a lake in northern Saskatchewan, Canada. The northern village of Pinehouse is located on the western shore.

The Churchill River flows in from Sandy Lake into the north-west end of the lake at McDonald Bay and flows out through the north-east end of the lake into Sandfly Lake.[4]
