Madison Lake State Park is a public recreation area located four miles (6.4 km) east of London in the Darby Plains region of Madison County, Ohio, United States.[3] The state park includes 106-acre (43 ha) Madison Lake and 76 acres (31 ha) of surrounding land.[2]
The lake was formed in 1947 when the Madison Lake Dam was built on Deer Creek. The site was handed over to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources for use as a state park in 1950.[3]
