Pike Lake State Park is a public recreation area located in the midst of the wooded hills of Pike County, five miles south of the village of Bainbridge, in the southern part of the U.S. state of Ohio. The state park contains a small lake with surrounding state forest, campground, and cabins. The site was developed by members of the Civilian Conservation Corps in the 1930s and became a state park in 1949.
