Notes

“Lake of the Healing Waters” is a historical account of Little Manitou Lake and the resort village of Manitou Beach, Saskatchewan, authored by Ruth Schellenberg. It explores the lake’s rich mineral‑laden waters—long believed by Indigenous peoples and early settlers to have therapeutic properties—and how that reputation drew spa development, tourism, and community growth in the 20th century. The book traces the region’s transformation: from Indigenous healing site to prairie resort, spa destination, and its cultural legacy in the province
