The Campground is open year-round and offers RV sites that can accommodate up to a 40′ RV. Campsites have water and electricity (AC110, 30amp, and 50amp), also available all year. There is also an RV dump station. There are Primitive Beach Tent Only sites. No hookups or vehicle access on the beach.
This place, it stinks. There are brine flies everywhere. Inexplicably, the beach was covered in dead birds when we were there. The refinery for the Kennecott copper mine loomed in the background like mount doom.
Five stars. It’s awesome how awful it is.
Very disappointing. Not well maintained and the beach smells awful. They charge you five dollars to enter the park. They have a small viewing area that overlooks the lake, and you can walk out to the small beach area. You have to walk through brush to get out to the beach. This area could be so much more than it is if the state would put a little effort into the location. Very disappointing compared to the other state parks.
Small park, marina, and trailer style visitor center with a few gravel campsites right along the road in. Has picnic tables and handicap accessible observation deck. Short rough gravel walk to Taz Point, or you can walk down in the sand flats along the lake if you're OK with sand/mud, so wear durable shoes.
This was a fun place to check out! It’s a pretty area with a nice view of the surrounding mountains. Be aware that there were a number of dead birds around so keep a close eye on children.
I have visited this state park several times, but only in winter. From there you can see part of Antelope Island. They have a telescope to observe and you can also see the Great Saltier. In winter, it is very cold especially if there is wind. Here I share some images from our Utah's Lakes and Reservoirs photography project. Contemplating the Great Salt Lake never disappoints. It is a walk very close to the city that everyone will experience.
