Osoyoos Lake State Park, State park on Osoyoos Lake in Washington, US.
Osoyoos Lake State Park is a 47-acre park along a 14-mile lake that stretches north into British Columbia. The grounds feature sandy beaches, open lawns, two boat ramps for water sports, and sports courts for basketball, baseball, and soccer.
The site served as a camp and racing ground for Native Americans before miners and cattle drivers traveled the Caribou Trail toward Canadian gold fields in the 1800s. The location became a stopping point during westward expansion and resource extraction in the region.
The park contains a memorial dedicated to war veterans, with a plaque installed in 1998 through contributions from veteran organizations.
The park is easily accessible with restroom facilities near the water and ample parking for visitors. Water and land activities are best during warmer months when conditions are most favorable.
The lake forms where the Okanogan River widens, creating conditions that support smallmouth bass, rainbow trout, and kokanee salmon. This natural fish habitat draws anglers from both sides of the border.
