Butler Lake is a small lake south of Wilmurt in Herkimer County, New York. It drains north via an unnamed creek that flows into West Canada Creek. Butler Lake is home to a pair of loons who migrate in each spring to rear their young. The lake is only just large enough as they require a "long runway" of water from which to take off. Atwood Lake is located east of Butler Lake.
