Rock Cliff Park at Jordanelle is a wonderful area but it is badly in need of repair. And it's really sad that the Nature Center is still not open. They need to find the money to fix it all up.

Jordanelle is a gorgeous lake located at the back side of Deer Crest, maybe 10 minutes from Park City. Boating, fishing, hiking, swimming, water sports, camping, daily cook-outs (grills provided), and some pretty good lodging and restaurants make this a great place to have a memorable weekend. There's also a small store with snacks, beer, ice, gasoline and fishing baits ( that make for some good informational and very entertaining 'fish stories' ). Go to Jordanelle with a relaxed state of mind and I guarantee a fun weekend.

After skiing for a number of days, we decided to take a nice little hike along the reservoir. The path had great views of the mountains. Restrooms and hike in camping are available. Keep in mind it is a popular horse trail as well.

Great place for a family outing, it would be nice if there were signs posted to inform patrons where pets are allowed. Beautiful place and well worth the visit. I think it cost $10 for our car for the day and we had 6 people and 2 pets. Its nice to have a lake where dogs are allowed on the shore line and even in the water. The camp sites and grounds are well maintained and clean.

Gorgeous state park. We had a family picnic over by an inlet. There wasn't a ton of shade so plan to bring some with you. If you are needing a picnic table make sure to book in advance. They are affordable like 5-10 dollars for the day. Great beach for the kids sup and kayaks for days.

A uniquely beautiful place! My friends and I had a fantastic day with our kayak and hired SUP, very peaceful and relaxing as well as a great spot for water sports.

A good place to take a picnic and hang out and swim. The good water (for skiing) is early in the morning, especially on weekends. It's a good go-to lake that is plenty of fun for family boating. After 11 AM on weekends it tends to get a little bit crazy and not everybody pays the most attention. They do offer a decently well kept beach and well kept powered campgrounds.

Great water, not too crowded save for big events. Park staff is very friendly, bathrooms are pretty clean.
If you're camping, the hike-in sites have some carts to help you bring supplies in, which is nice. Unfortunately, some folks ignore signage and horde the carts at their campsites, so if you have your own cart you're probably better off.
The hike-in sites are also really close together- i don't think there are any sites where you cant look around and see another site from it, which seems to kinda defeat the purpose of "hike-in"response / report this review -

45 minutes or so from Salt Lake City, Jordanelle is close enough for a day trip! The water's warm and there's lots of beach and picnic areas. Its a wonderful place to cool off on a hot day.

This park is really nice. We were at the Keetley campground. You have to hike into it. Which kinda sucks, but the hike is close, maybe half a mile to a mile (depending on how much up hill you want in the trek). They do have wagons, if you can find one. Most people never return them, they just leave them at their campsite There really isn't any shade on this hike, or the campground. We went in mid July, and the heat was just killing us as we had to hike our stuff in and out. You would definitely want to carry your stuff in late/early so you can avoid the heat. The water is great, very muddy around the camp site, sink quite a bit. You probably want to bring water shoes as the rocks are pretty rough on the feet (if you want to swim). The water was great though, not too cold.

Great beach, pavilions and grassy areas. Reservations can be made 6 mos in advance. Rentals available include boats, jet skis, paddle boards, kayaks, and flyboards (like a personal water jet pack). Aqua zone is awesome, 3 hours was plenty of time to make every muscle sore most in our group were pretty work out in about 1.5 he's, a few went 2-3. Easily accommodated a family reunion of 30 people. Few conveniences available at the park, but Kimball Junction, Park City, and Heber are all within 30 min drive.

The park is at 99% water capacity, which means the water is really, really high. Which in turn means there is hardly any Beach area. Most is covered with water. We went on the 3th of July and we just could not find any Beach area to play in. Since we don't have any water toys our plan was just for our 2 kids to play in the sand. We couldn't even find parking. Unless we wanted to walk a mile under 90 degree weather with a 6 and 2 year old on top of umbrella, towels and sand toys. We went to the main office to request a refund and as the government agency they are said that we should have known it would be crowded because it is close to the holiday. Sure, we knew that in advanced but we didn't know the water levels would be so high and drown pretty much most of the beach. I think they should be a little more considerate and flexible when natural circumstances such as this happens. We couldn't boat, or canoe or paddle board we just wanted sand and there wasn't any! There was another entrance going a little bit more down the hill it is called the damn observation point. If you keep going they have another entrance gate which only costs $7 instead of $10 at the main gate. The parking lot was almost empty and they have a smaller ramp for water toys. It just didn't have any Beach access. The second picture I posted is the smaller ramp on the other entrance gate I am talking about. A great less known gate to avoid the crowds

Stumbled across this gem by chance. What an awesome location with many great campsites to choose from. We paid $30 for a RV site with 30A and water. Each campsite also has a picnic bench, fire pit, and BBQ grill. Getting into the park is very user friendly with a automated payment machine for after hours. The campsites are spaced out so you aren't camping directly next to other people. Will definitely come back.
