This lake extends entirely in the canton of Lacasse. Recreotourism activities are the main economic activity of the sector. Forestry comes second. Recreational boating is particularly popular on this water, especially for sport fishing. The Miller Lake watershed is served on the north side by some secondary forest roads that have been developed for logging. These forest roads connect north to the R1045 forest road serving the north shore of the Gouin Reservoir. The surface of Miller Lake is usually frozen from mid-November to the end of April, however, safe ice circulation is generally from early December to late March. Water management at the Gouin Dam can lead to significant variations in the water level, particularly at the end of the winter when the water is lowered. The water level of this bay equilibrates with that of the Gouin Reservoir. Geography{{columns-list|colwidth=30em|Before the completion of the construction of the La Loutre Dam in 1916, creating the Gouin Reservoir, Miller Lake had a smaller dimension. After the second raising of the waters in 1946 with the development of the Gouin Dam, Miller Lake became its present form. The main hydrographic slopes near Miller Lake are:
With a crab-shaped crescent-shaped length of {{convert|3.7|km}}, Miller Lake stretches to the northeast. The north and northeast side of the lake has wetlands. This lake feeds in the South-West by the discharge of Simard Lake (Gouin Reservoir) and by the discharge (coming from the North) of Lacasse Lake (Gouin Reservoir). The southern part of Miller Lake is bounded by the north end of a peninsula that runs northward on {{convert|6.6|km}}. This peninsula also delimits the west side of Simard Lake (Gouin Reservoir). A narrow bay stretches {{convert|1.1|km}} north, more or less parallel to the outlet of Lacasse Lake (Gouin Reservoir). The mouth of Miller Lake is located northeast of the lake at:
From the mouth of Miller Lake, the current flows over {{convert|99.2|km}} to Gouin Dam, according to the following segments:
From this dam, the current flows along the Saint-Maurice River to Trois-Rivières where it flows onto the North Shore of the St. Lawrence River. }} ToponymyThe term "Miller" is a family name of English origin. The French toponym "lac Miller" was formalized on 5 décembre 1968 by the Commission de toponymie du Québec, e.g. at its creation.[2] Notes and references1. ^Measured distances from the Atlas of Canada (published on the Internet) of the Department of Natural Resources Canada. 2. ^Commission de toponymie du Québec - Bank of place names – French toponym: "lac Miller".
