Cave Lake State Park, Recreational lake in Great Basin, Nevada, United States.
Cave Lake is a reservoir in the Schell Creek Range sitting at around 7300 feet elevation and surrounded by dense pine forests. The clear waters offer a quiet setting with mountain views extending in every direction.
The lake was created in 1939 when the Isbell Construction Company built a dam to store water for the region. The site later became a state park in 1973 and has served the public since then.
The White Pine Fire & Ice Show draws visitors during winter months, showcasing elaborate snow sculptures and illuminated ice formations point.
The park offers two camping areas with level sites, fire pits, and picnic tables for overnight stays. Parking is available at both camping zones and the grounds are clearly marked.
During winter months the park hosts ice and snow sculpture shows with illuminated artworks that create a striking contrast to the quiet mountain setting. These seasonal events draw visitors looking to experience the snow-covered landscape in a festive way.
