Lovely state park that is so accessible and very near to towns of heber and midway. There is plenty of parking available. Was very excited to not have to drive super far to get to some local hiking. This area very much reminded me of my hometown. I am only going to review one hike though as that is all i had the chance to enjoy of wasatch mountain state park. If I were in heber again i would love to go and explore this beauty more. Crows nest via huber grove via epperson is the hike we attempted to go on. https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/utah/crows-nest-via-huber-grove-to-epperson Its a 5.1 mile loop trail that starts at the parking lot next to the visitor center. It is rated moderate. so there are so many off shoots on this trail. We followed teh all trails map and it led us astray. We eventually found the finale crows nest loop but my teens were done at that point and we just headed back. The loop in all trails map also is longer than what is listed. There are not a lot of signs that say crows nest. We did find our way out easily enough. Trail is dry. Pretty area once you get up into the trees. It is nice that wasatch is not too far out of town so very accessible. If you do not have a utah state parks pass be sure to bring $10 cash or go to the website at teh parking lot and then you can pay for parking online read more

Not knowing what I was getting myself in to, I booked a campsite five months ago when reservations opened. I'm so glad I did! This beautiful park is located in Midway surrounded by gorgeous mountains and a pristine golf course. Sites are clearly marked and maintained-ours was perfectly level too. The camp hosts come around frequently and are friendly-they also enforce rules such as parking in designated areas only-which is appreciated since some of the roads are pretty narrow. Take some time to check out the historical sites as well-there is an old pioneer home with lots of history and has staff onsite to give tours and answer questions. The visitors center offers cool activities for all ages and a neat program for everyone to help maintain the trails. I'm already scouring recreation.gov to find another coveted time slot to return. This is a beautiful place and I can't wait to come back! read more

Wasatch Mountain State Park - Parks Near Me

New trail for me today. There is a fee for parking. The park provides year-round recreation activities - golf, hiking, biking, camping , horseback riding, snowmobiling , ATVs, fishing, cross-country skiing, and snowshoeing a little bit of everything for the outdoor enthusiasts. Such a beautiful area for hiking especially this time of year. We drove here by way of Guardsman Pass which will close when the snow falls. The best way to get to the park when that happens is through Heber City. Geocaching is also at Wasatch Mountain State Park and offer Traditional Caches and Multi-caches. If you have ever GeoCached you know what fun this can be. It brings out your Sherlock Holmes skills. Lots of wildlife are in this area, especially bird watching. I would love to spot a Belted Kingfisher, but I'm usually on the move, and looking at my feet to actually spot one. read more

We drove through the state park. This is a nice area off the highway with lots of trails and a campsite. A golf course is nearby. The Visitors Center has a lot of information. The man behind the desk gave me Trail maps and answered questions. Parking to use the trails is $7 all day. Brochures for area attractions are in a rack. Clothing with the park logo is for sale. Lots of cross country skis and mountain bikes are for rent. Plus, there is a nice display of nature, Native American, and early settlers. Children would like it. Bathrooms are handicapped accessible. Make this a first stop. read more

I visited in the fall to camp and had a great time! Our site was beautiful, at the end of the Cottonwood loop. We had fantastic views of the mountains and the incredible fall colors. Some sites weren't very private though, so I'd definitely recommend looking at photos of the sites when deciding where to stay. The campsite was kept clean, including a cleaned-out fire pit and raked tent pad. I prefer camping in areas that have enough trees to feel somewhat isolated, even if there are a lot of people, and this campground provided just that! I'm not sure about other sites, but ours wasn't level; we don't have stabilizing jacks, which resulted in me having a terrible vertigo attack in the middle of the night. But lesson learned, we definitely won't go without those jacks again! Midway is a very cute town with lots of great looking restaurants. I didn't visit any due to the pandemic, but I will be back to try them out for sure! There appeared to be nice hiking and biking trails in the area, and a golf course (if that's your thing). This is my favorite State Park, I just really wish it wasn't so popular and I could camp here more often. Sites are released on an 11 month rolling schedule, so plan ahead! read more

This state park is rather quite nice. Hiked the crow's nest trail - about 4 total miles. The trails are well maintained and not rocky. Lots of shade and great views. Very good for kids of all ages. Highly recommend. read more

This is a hidden gem for cross country skiing. The space is beautiful, the rentals are cheap and the staff is friendly! Best way to spend a Saturday morning (or any winter morning), in my opinion! read more

We stayed one night . It is a really nice quiet camp ground. I loved the extras hot showers and the electric outlets underneath the picnic tables and water. I also thought it was really nice how they have the sanded the tent area and the sunken fire pit We did have wood for fire but decided not to burn one because someone else had already burned up a campsite It really makes you think do you need a fire or not.. Check in was very easy they gave us a map we looked at the sites and picked out the one we liked. The shower was amazing, we had hiked the wave earlier so the hot shower really helped with the stiffness . The campground was really clean. The staff was very friendly . I also like that the camp is locked at 10:00 at night. We enjoyed driving around looking at some of the rest of the park and the local history. Thanks for a great night. read more

I went to Midway with a good friend and his buddy for a job they needed to do. we pulled in to are reserved spoof. my first thought was no shad.... but as we settled I I went for a walk. I was super impressed by the restrooms and showers. I was so relieved that there was running water and was very impressed how well taking care of the area was. Thank you for putting so much care and work into the place. was a very pleasant experience. watch out for those snakes....:) read more

I'm a life-long enemy of camping, so when my friends asked me to go with them to Wasatch Mountain State Park, I only said yes out of obligation. And they had a camping trailer, which means no sleeping on the ground. Even still, I was not looking forward to it. How surprised was I? Our campsite was an excellent place for people like me who don't mind pretty views but refuse to rough it. It's right up against a beautiful mountain and golf course (our campsite was about 50 feet from the course). The bathrooms were clean-ish and featured running water, private showers, and flushing toilets. There was a great little playground about 1/2 mile up the road for my kids. And it's practically in Midway, which is one of my favorite places in Utah. With all that I was able to do a little hiking, a little shopping, a little eating out, and end the night next a fire with s'mores. Best of all worlds. If you're a Daniel Boone type who wants to eat jerky and scale cliffs all weekend, this may not be the place for you. But for the casual, comfortable camper, you couldn't pick a better spot. I'll reserve 5 stars for the Grand America, but this is about as high as I'd ever rate outdoor accommodations. read more

Nice campground. Clean and many great spots. Big and small RV's. Gps had us driving circles to find it, but we had a good time. Good place for a few days or just a night. read more

Nice campground but parties were out of control. Ranger never patrolled, and the camp host said the ranger stops work at 10pm. Parties raged until 3am with 20 people cramming into the site next to ours. I talked to the ranger the next day and she blamed the host, of course the host blames the ranger. Cut a 4 day stay short by 2 days, I can't survive on less than 4 hours of sleep for a second night. My worst experience in 10 plus years of RVing. read more
