Liberty Lake is a lake located in Spokane County, Washington, in the United States. The lake is approximately 800 feet (240 m) south of the eponymous city, and is a popular fishing spot. The lake forms part of the Spokane Valley–Rathdrum Prairie Aquifer. Besides the aquifer, the only outflow is a small unnamed stream that ends at a small ephemeral pond a little over 1 mile (1.9 km) to the North.
