Lake Rosebery is a lake created by the damming of the Pieman River West Coast, Tasmania.

It has the former Hydro Tasmania construction village at Tullah, Tasmania on its shores, and it also has the diverted Emu Bay Railway line adjacent as well.

The Wee Georgie Wood Railway line runs close to the lake.

Feeder rivers include the dammed Mackintosh and Murchison rivers.
