| State Park Overview: |
| Lincoln Rock State Park is an 80-acre camping park on the east side of Lake Entiat, created by Rocky Reach Dam blocking the flow of the Columbia River north of Wenatchee. The park, a popular place for swimming, water-skiing and respite from the hot sun, was named for a basalt outcropping said to resemble the profile of Abraham Lincoln. The park provides lawns and shade trees in the midst of an arid environment. River rock lines trails. Children's' play equipment and winter snow play add fun to the park. Beavers are visible on the Columbia River.

| History of the Area: |
| Lincoln Rock was named after a prominent geological feature, visible across the river, which resembles the profile of Abraham Lincoln. According to early newspaper accounts, this rock outcropping was first named in 1889 by Billy Schaft and Ed Ferguson. Schaft took a picture and Ferguson commented how much it resembled Abraham Lincoln. The picture was entered in the photograph contest of a prominent magazine, where it won first prize. Because of the nationwide circulation of the magazine, the name of Lincoln Rock was officially adopted for the landmark. Lincoln Rock State Park was acquired by the state on April 1, 1980. |
