You are allowed only 14 days which is typical and we were ok with, only upon arrival we were surrounded by workers that had been there and were still there when we left. So I guess the 14 day rule doesn't apply to everyone! Be prepared for lots of noise from the workers early morning noise and late nights. They disregard the noise rule. So if your on vacation and want to sleep in forget it you'll be up at 4am by noisy trucks and slamming doors. Did I mention the grass that no one cuts, don't plan on eating outside at the picnic tables. The only thing I can say I loved about this park was the view and the water. Gorgeous view all the time of the mountains. Watching the boats coming and going was wonderful.

We are big fans of waterfalls so we…read moredefinitely planned to check this one out; We arrived just after 10am on a beautiful Saturday morning. The parking lot was already pretty full as vehicles were parking up on the drive in. Fortunately we found a spot right away. There were all sorts of people around. From joggers and walkers to families to older folks. It's a short walk of a few blocks to the Falls. It's very scenic. Before you know it you can hear the water cascading down the mountain and you have reached the base of the falls. Feel free to take your shoes off or wear sandals as you can walk in the cool water. A lot of fun on this beautiful day. As the weather heats us, I'm sure even more folks would visit and walk in the cooling beautiful water of Bridal Falls Veil.

Omg guys!! Absolutely a must see in Provo! Dog friendly, a small amount of walking to get there and…read morethe cutest little swimming hole! If you don't want to walk to the falls you have the option to park at a small pull off near the falls. We didn't stay long as it was somewhat busy but totally worth it!

The FlowRider is AWESOME!!!…read more My wife and I made the trip up from Las Vegas for my birthday over the Thanksgiving Holiday weekend. We booked a surf lesson at 2PM, but due to some timing issues had to move it to 3PM which the team was more than helpful in accommodating. It's hard to believe it can be as cold as the high 20s outside and you're inside catching waves on the FlowRider. The pool area is well heated and the water was warm. There are plenty of grandstands for people to sit and spectate. They have lockers to hold / secure your stuff while you catch waves. They have bathrooms for changing, and showers to clean up after (the only thing I wish they had was more areas in the bathrooms to hang or set your stuff down while you shower or change. Even a small foldaway table would have been helpful). Our lesson was essentially a 60 minute private since my wife and I were the only two in the session. Our instructor John was super friendly, helpful, and informative. He gave us a quick overview and had us riding waves within the first few runs, and if you wiped out (which is pretty painless and fun) he'd have some pointers for you for your next run. We each would do 3-4 runs and then trade off and as long as we had the energy John was at the ready to help catch waves. This was a total five star experience, and I can't wait to do it again! It looks like they also have GA type session where you pay the hourly fee and it's open to the public for everyone to use in turn. However, I'd highly recommend a lesson if it's your first time out. You can also rent either half or whole of the FlowRider by the hour should you have a private event or just want to hone your skills.

Our family loved the laser tag which you get to do three times with that pass. Bowling and the ropes course was also a lot of fun. The mini croquet seemed run down and lame but part of that is probably due to the fact that we have no idea how to play croquet. Rules posted somewhere would've been helpful. All in all this is a really cool place to spend your time.

Small man made reservoir with a man made beach. Open from Dawn to Dusk March 1 through November 30…read more Several families were fishing today, and you can also swim, but I didn't see anyone swimming today. (Why would you want to chance getting hooked or tangled by someone's fishing line?) They've brought in sand for a makeshift beach which is nicer than sitting on rocks. The NO'S are as follows: No dogs, or other animals allowed. No bicycles, scooters, skateboards, rollerblades, roller skates No ATV's, motorcycles, motorized vehicles. No fires, fireworks No alcohol, No smoking, No e-cigarettes, and definitely no chewing tobacco. One nice thing about the reservoir is there are several hiking trails close by, but be careful... this is bear country according to the many signs that warn you.

There was a small quarter sand beach while the last 3/4 of the pond was surrounded by concrete beaches. The kids ended up having fun with it but I still thought it was weird. Where are the trees? Where is the shade? Ha! NOTE: the water is quite cold; we predicted about 60 degrees. Too cold for me but my kids enjoyed it on this 100 degree day! I appreciate any effort on the city to bring local parks and ponds for the public to enjoy.

Asked for a back in spot and was given a pull through spot twice, even after clarifying and asking to move and with tons of available spaces. There is supposed to be laundry but it's locked and "not plugged in." The bathrooms are decrepit. No paper towels, hand dryers don't work, barely any light. The showers are disgusting and do not get warm. Only one stream of water pelting you and no place to hang your towel, put your toiletries, or put your clothes to stay dry. Went around to three bathroom/shower buildings, all the same. Came here because we wanted to shower and do laundry on our long road trip. So angry. Would steer clear of this place if you want any cleanliness, warmth, comfort, or amenities. This is the worst place we've ever stayed.

This review is for the experience during last summer…read more This venue hits different compared to the many music venues I've been to in several states, so there's a lot of appreciation in regard to the beautiful surroundings; history (now Saltair III); and architecture. The moment I stepped outside of the venue and was standing at the second level--I can see the beautiful mountains and salt flats. I'm a big fan of nature and sunsets, so this experience was surreal and eerie. The sounds of the music and being able to see the crowd was amazing. I spent more time outdoors than I did indoors. No issues with ticketing, restrooms and ordering drinks. They were moving pretty fast. I can't comment on parking since we took a party bus to the venue, but the drive-in and drop off wasn't complicated. The building itself has this "moorish" influence exterior, but not all original from what I understood. Still a bit vintage, unique and cool looking. The inside is an open space. I don't recall any seating. Mainly a standup setting with two levels. I look forward to coming back to this venue again this year to experience it different seasons/time.

It's well worth the $60/day fee with full hookups. The campsite also has clean fire pits, picnic tables, and a water spout. It's dog friendly and other campers are good about keeping their dogs on a leash. There's a boat ramp and a nice walkway to the "beach." There's a few picnic tables that I saw people enjoying their lunch at. It's fairly quiet and during the day since everyone seems to be on the water. Everyone respects quiet time at 10pm so it was a pleasant experience!

I think this might be my favorite reservoir to visit in Utah. The view of Mount Timpanogos is so…read morestunning! There's a sandy beach to lay out on, and grass patches in the shade as well. There are lots of pavilions and plenty of bathrooms. I've come here a few times over the years for the 4th of July, and even though it's probably one of the busiest days here, there's always plenty of room on the beach for everyone. The parking lot here is another story. They have extremely limited parking in their main lot, and then some over flow parking across the street. If you're coming on a holiday weekend or probably just a weekend in general, it's important to get here early. We had part of our group get there around 9am and they got one of the last spots in the main spot. We got there around 10:15am and were able to park in the overflow across the street, but once that's full you CANNOT park on the road, you'll get towed or ticketed, as we witnessed happen to many people on the 4th. A little ways up the road there is a pull off to park in, however you have to walk along the highway to get back to the state park. We've done it before, and it's not ideal. There's a gorgeous hike here to Chair Rock - I found a trail guide for the hike from Girl on a Hike's blog and it's a steep but VERY rewarding hike. When I did it a few years ago, no one else was there, and the views are absolutely stunning.
