Devils Lake State Parks is the name sometimes applied to the units of the North Dakota state parks system located on Devils Lake, south of the city of Devils Lake in Ramsey County. As of 2012, only the larger remaining unit, Grahams Island State Park, was in operation. The smaller Black Tiger Bay Recreation Area was closed due to inaccessibility. At one time there were four units on Devils Lake but rising water caused Narrows State Recreation Area to be closed in 1995 and Shelvers Grove's closure in 2004.Grahams Island State ParkThe park occupies the eastern end of Grahams Island and provides opportunities for fishing, boating, and picnicking. Overnight accommodations include 144 campsites, both modern and primitive, and four cabins.Black Tiger Bay Recreation AreaThe recreation area has been closed due to the rising waters of Devils Lake, which have inundated local roads. When open, it offered a boat ramp with a large parking area.
