Lake Easton is a lake and reservoir along the course of the Kachess River in the U.S. state of Washington.

The Kachess River flows into the lake from the north, and out from the south, through the 1929 Easton Diversion Dam. Lake Easton is located south of Interstate 90 and northwest of Easton and is the primary attraction of Lake Easton State Park. Iron Horse State Park is immediately south of the lake.
