== History ==
Originally, Todd Lake was called "Lost Lake" because it was difficult for people to find. In the early 20th century, citizens of Bend, Oregon, asked that the name of the lake be changed to avoid confusion with several other Oregon lakes with the same name. In 1922, the name of the lake was officially changed to Todd Lake. The name honors John Y. Todd, an early pioneer in central Oregon. Todd immigrated to Oregon in 1852. In 1860, he built the first bridge across the Deschutes River. Later, he became a successful cattle rancher. Todd founded of the Farewell Bend Ranch, which gave the city of Bend its name.〔McArthur, Lewis A. and Lewis L.

Todd Lake and the surrounding forest are part of the Bend-Fort Rock Ranger District, an administrative sub-division of the Deschutes National Forest. In 1964, the United States Congress created the Three Sisters Wilderness surrounding the Three Sisters mountains in Oregon's Cascade Range. Todd Lake is just outside the southern boundary of the wilderness. As a result, Todd Lake is a major wilderness access point for hikers.〔〔("Three Sisters Wilderness" ), ''Wilderness.net'', Wilderness Institute, College of Forestry and Conservation, University of Montana, Missoula, Montana, 25 August 2014.〕
Road access to Todd Lake has always been via Forest Road 46 (also known as the Cascade Lakes Highway). In 1989, the Forest Service designated the road as a National Forest Scenic Byway. In 1997, the State of Oregon made the road an Oregon state scenic byway. A year later, the Federal government officially designated the highway as a national scenic byway, calling it the Cascade Lakes Scenic Byway.〔Gyorgyfalvy, Robin Lee, ("Byway History" ) (PDF), ''Cascade Lakes National Scenic Byway Corridor Management and Interpretive Plan 2011'', Deschutes National Forest, United States Department of Agriculture, Bend, Oregon, 2011, p. 7.〕 Many travel guides for the Cascade Lakes Scenic Byway mentioned Todd Lake, highlighting its location as first Cascade lake along the byway.〔("The Cascade Lakes Scenic Byway" ), ''Trip Check'', Oregon Department of Transportation, Salem, Oregon, 27 August 2014.〕〔("Cascade Lakes Scenic Byway" ) (PDF), ''Discover Oregon Scenic Byways and Tour Routes Driving Guide'', Federal Highway Administration, United States Department of Transportation in cooperation with Oregon Department of Transportation and ''Travel Oregon'', Salem, Oregon, 2009, pp. 28-30.〕〔("Cascades Lakes Scenic Byway" ), ''Travel Oregon'', Oregon Tourism Commission, Salem, Oregon, 27 August 2014.〕〔("The Cascade Lakes" ) (PDF), ''Cascade Lakes National Scenic Byway Tour of Interpretive Sites'', Deschutes National Forest, United States Forest Service, United States Department of Agriculture, Washington, District of Columbia, 2010.〕
