Robinson Lake is a glacial tarn in the Ruby Mountains, in Elko County in the northeastern part of the state of Nevada. It is located just south of the shelf of Soldier Basin, at approximately 40°43.8′N 115°16.8′W / 40.7300°N 115.2800°W / 40.7300; -115.2800, and at an elevation of 9,100 feet (2,800 meters).

Both were named for a family of early settlers in Ruby Valley.
