About Hyrum State Park

Hyrum State Park sits on the shore of Hyrum Reservoir in Cache Valley, offering water recreation and shaded campsites at 4,662 feet elevation. The park has 3 sites (tent, RV, and cabin options) for $20 per night. It's clean and well-maintained, with full amenities including showers and a dump station, but sites are very close together.

Hyrum State Park offers a mix of camping options, including tent sites, RV spaces, and cabins. However, the campsites are noted for their close proximity, which might detract from a secluded camping experience.

Historical Significance

Mountain man William H. Ashley cached $150,000 worth of furs here during the winter of 1825-26, giving Cache Valley its name. The act marked this area as a significant point in the American fur trade era.

Weather and SeasonsSummer is the prime season here. Daytime highs reach 80–90°F with evenings cooling to the 50s–60s, and all water activities are fully accessible. Boating, swimming, and fishing peak in July, when the park is busiest and reservations fill early. Winter brings snow and freezing temperatures. Spring warms gradually with wildflowers appearing in the valley. Valley breezes help moderate the heat on summer afternoons.

ElevationWhile specific elevation details await discovery, the campground's valley location provides that perfect mountain-lake atmosphere where cool morning mists give way to warm afternoons and spectacular sunset views.

Natural Features and SceneryThe reservoir stretches out from the campground, backed by Cache Valley's mountain walls. Mature trees shade most RV pads and parts of the camping area. The beach is rocky. Wind direction can bring manure smell from nearby agricultural land. Bird activity is strong in the mornings and evenings, with both local and migratory species using the trees and water.

Geological RegionCache Valley cradles this campground in its ancient embrace, a testament to millions of years of geological artistry. Carved by time and water, the valley's rich soils and dramatic mountain walls tell the story of Utah's dynamic past. The life-giving waters of Hyrum Reservoir pool here naturally, creating an oasis where the rugged beauty of the Mountain West meets the gentle rhythms of lake life. This unique convergence of mountain, valley, and water creates an ecosystem as diverse as it is beautiful.

Scenic Views"Awesome views of the mountains and surrounding areas" (Review by Corby B.). Waterfront sites offer direct views of the reservoir.

Lodging & AccommodationsHyrum State Park offers cabin rentals, which are noted for being clean and comfortable. A review mentioned that a cabin accommodated three adults and three children comfortably. However, there have been complaints about parking issues with cabins, including non-enforcement of dedicated parking rules.

Go if

Boaters and anglers who want a base right on the water will find the boat launch, full hookups, showers, and fishing for trout, perch, and bass worth the $20. Reserve early for summer weekends, July especially, when the reservoir is at its best and sites go fast.

Skip if

Campers who need any sense of seclusion will be disappointed. Three sites jammed together near a road, possible manure smell on the wrong wind, a rocky beach with limited shade, and strict gate closure at 10 p.m. make this a poor fit for a relaxed wilderness stay.
