== History ==
Lucky Lake took its name from a lake which is 5 ½ miles north of the village named Luck Lake (Saskatchewan). The lake was originally named Devils Lake by the Plains Cree because of a mysterious light that shone over it during the night. No one ever knew what caused this light, however a possible explanation is that the lake was full of alkali. An early settler named Jack Swanson had an experience that would forever change the name of Devil's Lake. Jack had hobbled his oxen, but the mosquitoes were so numerous that the oxen became frantic, then broke their hobbles and ran away. The oxen headed towards the lake, where Jack was able to catch them. He recognized the fact that the only reason he was able to catch them was because of the lake and he quipped "This isn't Devil's Lake, this is Lucky Lake!"
Lucky Lake has seen many changes over the years. Within the past 13 years The Double "L" Motel was built in 1996, the Tullis Co-op expanded to Lucky Lake in 2005. West Central Road & Rail followed in 2007, & most recently H2O Systems in 2008, all to serve the community.〔(Village of Lucky lake )〕
