Lake Bathurst is a lake 27 km south-east of Goulburn, New South Wales, Australia.

The aboriginal name for the lake was "Bundong". It is a shallow lake that can vary in area from a few square kilometers to up to ten square kilometres, depending on the inflow and evaporation rates. It was named by surveyor James Meehan for Earl Bathurst, Secretary of State for the Colonies.
