Page Lake (also known as Page's Pond, Corse's Pond and Lake Page) is a lake located in New Milford Township, Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is approximately 1.6 km long with an average center depth of 7.62 m.

Page Lake was created by settler Leonard Corse, who built dams in 1820 and 1830. The dam was again rebuilt after a collapse and flood in 1855. The dam feeds into Salt Lick Creek, a tributary of the Susquehanna River.

Page Lake has been privately owned by the Lakeside Outing Club Inc. since 1922, and is operated as a "residential and vacation community."
