Gooseberry Lake is a lake in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. It is a shallow, natural lake located north-west of Moose Mountain Lake in the Moose Mountain Creek watershed.

It is in the Prairies Ecozone of Palliser's Triangle and the area around the lake has a knob and kettle landscape with poor drainage that, during years with heavy spring run-off or rains, is known to flood.

The lake is in the RM of Golden West No. 95 and can be accessed from Highway 711. There are no settlements, facilities, nor amenities on the lake.
