Spectacle Lake is a fishing lake in Washington, managed by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife and sitting about a mile from the town of Enterprise. It is a moderate destination, and its location close to town makes it an easy stop for anglers heading out from Enterprise. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Tonasket show July and August highs around 77°F with lows near 52°F, while winter highs stay in the 20s. Several other outdoor spots lie within a short drive. Rapanui Boulder and the Big Butte climbing areas are about 7 miles away, Toats Coulee Creek offers paddling at a similar distance, and Tonasket RV Park is roughly 8 miles off for an overnight stay.
