Pushaw Lake is a shallow, warmwater lake in Penobscot County, Maine, United States about 6.5 mi (10.5 km) north of Bangor and 4.5 mi (7.2 km) west of Orono.

A small dam was constructed in 1920 at the lake's outflow to maintain constant water levels.

The lake's formation and history prior to 1920 remains unclear.

The formation of Pushaw Lake was likely caused by glacial melting, however, some locals believe that the lake was greatly expanded in size by flooding or man-made causes at some point in history, explaining the lake's shallow depth.
