Park history
In May, 1966 the Washington State Parks
and Recreation Commission entered into
agreement with property owner William F.
Anderson, to purchase 410 acres surrounding
Anderson Lake. The purchase was finalized in
a ceremony on July 21, 1969. Anderson Lake is
not named for William F. Anderson, but rather
a relative of Amanda Anderson, a previous
owner of the property with no relation to
William F.
