Canoe, Hike, and Kayak

This is a nice little park at the start of Logan Canyon. Great place to go and have a nice picnic. This place is beautiful all year round. This narrow grassy park by the water is very comfortable for picnic and walking, canoeing, kayaking, fishing and paddling boarding.

There is a sand volleyball court there, but if you play somewhat of a serious game, expect to chase the ball into the water. It is a popular spot in the spring time with a lot of the college students from USU.

You can hike/trail run the bonneville and skyline across from this picnic area. Fun spot. Deer trail right across the reservoir is also very fun hike.
