Lake Elmo State Park, State park with 64-acre reservoir in Billings, United States
Lake Elmo State Park is a 123-acre public recreation area on the northeast side of Billings, Montana, at an elevation of 3,199 feet. Its 64-acre reservoir, fed by the Billings Bench Water Association Canal, has three beach-front areas, a fishing pier, two group-use shelters, a playground, and a fenced dog park on the west side.
The park was established in 1983 by Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks to provide recreation opportunities for the Billings area. The project grew from a desire to create a public outdoor space where residents could pursue different leisure activities.
The reservoir is fed by the Billings Bench Water Association Canal, and the park's three beach-front areas, two group-use shelters and playground draw families from across Billings. A fenced dog park sits on the lake's west side, separate from the swimming beaches.
