Market Lake Wildlife Management Area at 5,071 acres (20.52 km2) is an Idaho wildlife management area in Jefferson County north of the town of Roberts. The WMA was established in 1956 to restore a portion of Market Lake for migrating and breeding waterfowl.

Water in the WMA comes from natural springs and artesian wells beneath the igneous rock. Mammals seen in the WMA include mule and white-tailed deer and small numbers of moose.
