Deer Creek Reservoir

Deer Creek Reservoir

Deer Creek Reservoir lies in the southwest corner of beautiful Heber Valley at the base of Mount Timpanogos and consistently provides some of Utah's finest fishing. Warm water and predictable canyon winds make Deer Creek extremely popular for boating, wind surfing, sunbathing, swimming and sailboating.

Deer Creek is the perfect place to cool off on a summer day. Daily canyon winds create ideal conditions for sailing and wind-surfing. Colorful sails dot the waters of Deer Creek every weekend. Wave-runners can find some challenges on the choppy waters of the reservoir in the afternoons and water-skiers usually get lucky with glassy conditions in the early hours of the day. Deer Creek consistently provides some of Utah's finest boat fishing for trout, perch, walleye and smallmouth bass.

Relax on a sandy beach on the reservoir's northeast side or on one of the numerous day use areas providing the ideal setting. One paved and three gravel ramps accommodate boats onto the lake. There are two marinas that provide boat rentals and gasoline for your convenience. One campground, accommodating both tents and trailers is available for those wanting to spend more than a day at Deer Creek.
