About Deer Creek State Park

Built around the large Deer Creek Dam, the park surrounds the reservoir it holds back in the Heber Valley. The water body forms the main feature within the park's boundary, giving the area its shape and purpose. It sits near the town of Charleston, at the southwest end of the valley.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
