Jordanelle Reservoir is a large reservoir set in a valley east of the Wasatch Mountains. It is very popular for watersports and offers good fishing. Jordanelle State Park along the shore provides camping and picnicking opportunities.
Just minutes north of Heber City on US Hwy 40, this 3,068 surface-acre reservoir provides the ideal setting for any type of water play. Utah's newest reservoir, constructed in 1992, Jordanelle has become a favorite of boaters, water-skiers and wave-runners. The reservoir's sandy beaches, day-use cabanas and a children's play area complete the experience. Boating facilities at Hailstone recreation area on the west shore of the reservoir include two separate boat ramps (one for personal watercraft), an 80-slip marina with utility hookups, fuel dispensing, boat rentals and a marina store and restaurant.
Three separate campgrounds with showers and utility hookups, are available for those wishing to spend a few days enjoying the cool waters of Jordanelle.
