Raven Lake is a freshwater body of Canada that straddles the boundary between Northwest in the province of Quebec, in Rouyn-Noranda (sector of Montbeillard), in administrative region of Abitibi-Témiscamingue, and Northeastern Ontario, in the District of Timiskaming (township of McFadden Geo). The dividing line between the two provinces is in the northeastern part of Raven Lake.
Forestry is the main economic activity of the sector; recreational tourism activities, second. The resort is developed on the North Shore and in a bay in the Southeast, close to the south side of the largest island of this body of water. This hydrographic slope is served on the north side by Route 117 (East–west direction).
Annually, the lake surface is generally frozen from mid-November to late April, however, the period of safe ice circulation is usually from mid-December to mid-April.
