About Lake Sakakawea State Park
739 acres along the southern shore of Lake Sakakawea make up this recreation area, sitting just north of Pick City and next to the Garrison Dam. The park occupies land shaped by that reservoir and dam, giving access to the lake itself. Its position adjacent to the dam ties the site directly to that structure's presence on the landscape.
Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
