The Rosary Lakes are a group of three lakes in Klamath County, Oregon, in the United States.[1] All three lakes are within the Deschutes National Forest.[2]

The lake group consists of Lower Rosary Lake,[3] Middle Rosary Lake,[4] and North Rosary Lake.[5] The lakes were named from the fact their outlines together resemble the Rosary.[6]
