The Lucky Man Reserve is an Indian reserve of the Lucky Man Cree Nation in Saskatchewan.[1][3] It consists of Sections 25 to 36, Township 46, Range 6, west of the Third Meridian. In the 2016 Canadian Census, it recorded a population of 0 living in 0 of its 0 total private dwellings.[2]

Chief Lucky Man was one of the first adherents to Treaty 6, but his application for a reserve was originally denied. The Lucky Man Cree Nation was re-established in the 1970s, after years of its descendants living on Little Pine 116, and found eligible for a treaty land entitlement claim. In 1989, the band's application for the Mayfair provincial pasture was approved. Few members live on the reserve today.[4]
