Doyle Memorial State Recreation Area is a North Dakota state park located in McIntosh County, south of the community of Wishek. The park occupies a peninsula that juts into Green Lake and is used for fishing, boating, camping, and picnicking. The park lands were donated by J.J. Doyle, an early-20th-century politician for whom the park is named.[2]
