Lac Gregory is a body of fresh water crossed from north to south by the Tourilli River, located in the Laurentides Wildlife Reserve, in the unorganized territory of Lac-Croche, in the La Jacques-Cartier Regional County Municipality, administrative region of Capitale-Nationale, in province from Quebec, to Canada.

The watershed of Gregory Lake is served by a few secondary forest roads for the needs of forestry and recreational tourism activities.

Forestry is the main economic activity in the sector; recreational tourism, second.

The surface of Lake Gregory is generally frozen from the beginning of December to the end of March; safe circulation on the ice is generally done from the end of December to the beginning of March.
