Arcadia Lake is an artificial lake in Northeastern Oklahoma County, Oklahoma, USAIn Edmond. The lake is northeast of Oklahoma City.

The lake has a surface area of 1,820 acres (7 km²) and has about 26 miles (42 km) of shoreline.

The lake was created in 1987 by an earthen dam on the Deep Fork River begun in 1980. This lake was constructed as a cooperative effort between the City of Edmond and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Lake Arcadia was created to control floods in the Deep Fork River Basin, supply water to the city of Edmond, and provide recreational resources to the surrounding communities.
