Lake Scranton, Reservoir in Lackawanna County, Pennsylvania, United States.

Lake Scranton extends across 250 acres with a maximum depth of 30 feet, surrounded by walking paths and natural vegetation.

The Pennsylvania American Water Company constructed Lake Scranton in 1898 under William Walker Scranton's direction to supply water to local communities.

The television series The Office featured Lake Scranton in episodes Beach Games and Dunder Mifflin Infinity, connecting the reservoir to popular media.

A 3.5-mile trail circles the water body, providing designated areas for activities such as walking, running, fishing, and bird watching.

The reservoir, initially named Burned Bridge Reservoir, receives its primary water supply from Stafford Meadow Brook near East Mountain.
