Lake Chabot (/ʃəˈb/) is a small man-made lake in Vallejo, California, United States. The lake was built in 1871 and served as a water source for Vallejo until the city approved their own municipal water system in 1892.[2]

Dan Foley Park provides recreational access to the south side of the lake.[3] Six Flags Discovery Kingdom is on the lake's north side.
