Customer Testimonials
We appreciated working with Kerry during the summer of 2007 as we closed on the purchase of a lot at the Candle Lake Golf Course. Kerry's professionalism and courtesies were noticed. Kerry was able to work effectively with us and the Vendor's realtor to negotiate and close the deal. Very good job!
We want to take this time to thank Kerry for his hard work. Kerry was very professional and we really enjoyed him as a real estate agent. The opinion we have of Kerry is that it wouldn't matter if you were buying a $50,000.00 piece of property or a million dollar piece of property, you would be treated equal. Thanks!

For the fisherman in all of us, the lake provides us with Pickerel, Pike, Perch and Whitefish. We also have a trout pond to try your luck at!
Curious as to why it's named Candle Lake? Legend has it that the name came from First Nations people who believed that the lake was haunted. The story is that there was an unease, which arose from "the strange, glowing lights that appeared on the water at the northern end of the lake". Apparently, this is where several Indian graves are situated. Legend has it that Indian people visited this area during hunting expeditions, but never settled here because they believed the "candles" on the lake were a bad omen. On occasion, the unusual lights continue to be sighted. Scientific speculation suggests the "candles" are a gas emitted from decaying driftwood, creating a phosphorescent glow.
Along with these lights, Candle Lake is also a spectacular place to sit back and watch the magic of Saskatchewan's northern lights. The scientific term is aurora Borealis, which came from a French scientist named Pierre Gassendi. The word aurora was named after the Roman goddess of dawn, Aurora. The word Borealis came from the Roman god of the north wind. This show is an incredible sight to witness with your friends and family!
