Marquette Lake is a freshwater body of the unorganized territory of Lac-Ashuapmushuan, Quebec in the Regional County Municipality (RCM) Le Domaine-du-Roy, north-west of Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean administrative region, in province of Quebec, in Canada.
This lake is included in the Châteaufort and Marquette townships. Marquette Lake follows the western boundary (distance between 1.5 kilometres (0.93 mi) and 3.5 kilometres (2.2 mi)) outside (west side) of the boundary of the Ashuapmushuan Wildlife Reserve.
Forestry is the main economic activity of the sector. Recreational tourism activities come second.
The Forest Road R0212 (East-West) passes the north side of Marquette Lake. It will join to the East, the route 167 connecting Chibougamau and Saint-Félicien, Quebec, as well as the railway of the Canadian National Railway. Other secondary forest roads serve the vicinity of the lake.
The surface of Lac Marquette is usually frozen from early November to mid-May, however, safe ice circulation is generally from mid-November to mid-April.
