Foam Lake is a shallow lake in the aspen parkland ecoregion of the Canadian Province of Saskatchewan. It was named "Foam Lake" in 1882 by the Milligans (who were the first settlers in the area) because of the large amount of froth that forms on it. The lake and surrounding marsh are a protected area and important wildlife habitat. The primary inflows for the lake, Milligan Creek and Beckett Brook, originate to the south in the Touchwood Hills. From the north shore of the lake, Milligan Creek flows north-west into the salty Quill Lakes. The Quill Lakes are endorheic lakes as they have no outlet. Walleye are a commonly found fish in Foam Lake.
