The Lake of the Woods State Forest is a state forest located south of Lake of the Woods in Beltrami, Koochiching, Lake of the Woods, and Roseau counties, Minnesota. The forest borders the Pine Island State Forest to the east and the Beltrami Island State Forest to the west.

Outdoor recreational activities include boating, canoeing, kayaking, and fishing. Hunting for small game and white-tailed deer is popular in the fall, and trails are designated for snowmobiling in the winter. Camping facilities are available at Beltrami Island State Forest and the nearby Zippel Bay State Park.
