About Yellowstone Lake State Park

A 453-acre reservoir on the Yellowstone River forms the shoreline of this park. The lake sits within the larger 4,047-acre Yellowstone Wildlife Area, placing the park's shoreline inside a much larger tract of protected land. The park's identity centers on this impounded water body, not a natural lake, and on its place within that surrounding wildlife area.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
