Wolf Lake may refer to:

Wolf Lake is an lake that straddles the Indiana and Illinois state line near Lake Michigan. It is smaller than it was prior to settlement by people of European descent because of infilling for development around the edges. Despite years of environmental damage caused by heavy industries, transportation infrastructure, urban runoff and filling of wetlands, it is one of the most important biological sites in the Chicago region.

Wolf Lake was once connected by an open channel to Lake Michigan on the Indiana side of the lake, but this channel was cut off for development on its northern side. Indianapolis Boulevard ( U.S. 41) and various railroad and industrial facilities are located in former wetlands on the northeastern side of the lake where it once connected to Lake Michigan. There are currently proposals to reopen a channel between Wolf Lake and Lake Michigan. The Illinois portion of the lake consists of five, interconnected impoundments separated by dikes. The dikes were constructed in the late 1950s so that separate portions of the lake could be drained for the purpose of dredging for fill to use in the construction of the Chicago Skyway. The western impoundments are now part of the William W. Powers State Recreation Area and are drained by Indian Creek to the Calumet River. The Wolf Lake water level determines the drainage to Lake Michigan because the connecting Calumet River flows southward during elevated levels and northward during lowered levels. The Indiana portion of the lake consists of three, interconnected impoundments that are also separated by dikes. The longest dike, running roughly parallel to State Line Road and traversing the entire length of the lake, contains railroad tracks belonging to the Indiana Harbor Belt.

The Indiana Toll Road ( Interstate 90) runs through the middle of the lake just inside the Indiana state line. The lake is also transected by a number of railroad causeways, some of them no longer in use. Indiana Harbor Belt Railroad has an active spur line that runs through the Illinois side of the lake in the Hegewisch community area. Calumet Avenue (U.S. 41) is on its eastern side, with a strip of parkland in between. There are currently several large industrial properties adjacent to the lake and on filled wetlands adjoining the lake, including Cargill and Unilever on the north side. Other property near the edge of the lake is being used for housing. A significant portion of the property around the lake is now parkland or nature preserve, including the Eggers Woods parcel of the Forest Preserve District of Cook County.

Other neighboring lakes include Lake George, Lake Calumet, Powderhorn Lake and Lake Michigan. There was also another lake that laid to the west between Wolf Lake and the river. It was called Hyde Lake and was filled in by Republic Steel. The swampy area near 130th Street and the railroad tracks is the only remaining portion of the lake.

Wolf Lake is a lake in the Hudson Bay drainage basin located in the Municipal District of Bonnyville No. 87 in census division No. 12, Alberta, Canada. Its primary inflow and outflow is the Wolf River, which flows via the Sand River, Beaver River and Churchill River to Hudson Bay.

Wolf Lake is a 1978 film directed by Burt Kennedy. It stars Rod Steiger and Susan Tyrrell.

Wolf Lake is a lake located near Wurtsboro, New York. The spring-fed 340 acre lake is a 90-minute drive from New York City.

Wolf Lake is a freshwater lake in the Sudbury District Census Division in the Canadian province of Ontario. The lake is located in the Wolf Lake Forest Preserve which is within (but, as of this date, not part of) the Chiniguchi River Waterway Provincial Park, a protected area. The Wolf Lake Forest Preserve contains the world's largest remaining old-growth red pine forest; with trees estimated to be between 140 and 300 years old. In March 2012, the provincial government reaffirmed the protected status of Wolf Lake Old Growth Forest Reserve but in late May renewed the mining leases in the area as well.

Wolf Lake is a lake in Becker County, Minnesota, in the United States.

Wolf Lake was so named from the fact it was once a hunting ground of wolves and other animals.

Wolf Lake (also known as Gooch Aa) is located in Yukon, Canada near Teslin. The lake is surrounded by tundra and wooded lowlands and mountains. The lake is also commonly fished for its lake trout. In 1998 Parks Canada, the Teslin Tlingit Council, and the Teslin Renewable Resources Council held a discussion about a feasibility study for a national park in the area. Later in 1998 the Yukon government issued the Protected Areas Strategy including Wolf Lake as a protected area. The Yukon Bureau of Statistics took a survey in the area to find the views of the community of the plan for a national park, at the request of the Teslin Renewable Resources Council. They found the plan for a national park had strong support but some disapproval as some feared the park would interfere with tradition.

Wolf Lake Lodge is located on the West shore of the lake in a secluded bay. Visitors to the lodge have the luxury of uninterrupted peace and tranquility during their stay. Lake trout up to 60lbs are caught in Wolf Lake, along with Northern pike, Arctic Grayling and whitefish. Abundant moose, eagles, caribou and birds make this area a nature lover's paradise, made extra special by the occasional sighting of wolves, lynx and bears.

Wolf River is the main outflow from Wolf Lake, draining into Teslin lake. Arctic Grayling are plentiful. The river has been described by some as "the best Natural Grayling fishery in the world.".
