The Gouin Reservoir is a man-made lake, fully within the boundaries of the City of La Tuque, Quebec, Canada.

It is not one contiguous body of water, but the collective name for a series of connected lakes separated by innumerable bays, peninsulas, and islands with highly irregular shapes. It has therefore a relative long shoreline of over 5,600 km (3,500 mi) (excluding islands) compared to its surface area of 1,570 km2 (610 sq mi).

It is the source of the Saint-Maurice River.
