Reviews
"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."
"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."
"When you visit Salt Lake City, it's a must to see the lake itself! We had a bad timing and didn't see much because of the fog - but we still enjoied our time. It's a small park, with a small visitor center."
"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."
"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."
