Chip Lake is a large lake in west-central Alberta. The Lobstick River flows through the lake. It in turn is a tributary of the Pembina River, which eventually flows into the Athabasca River.

Poison Creek flows into the north-west corner of Chip Lake. It drains Beta Lake and Sunset Lake. Prior to entering Chip Lake, the Lobstick River takes on Brule and Little Brule Creeks.

The Yellowhead Highway ( Highway 16) passes along the south shore of Chip Lake. The small town of Wildwood can also be found on the lake's south shore. [1]
