Description

Geography:

Millsite Reservoir is part of the Ferron Watershed Project, a multipurpose water containment completed in 1970 with the combined efforts of several agencies. Before the dam was built, there was an old dam at the site to service a flourmill, hence the reservoir name.

Recreation:

Millsite State Park also offers access to excellent off- highway vehicle and mountain bike riding areas. Fishing is popular year-round. Visitors can also enjoy one of the most majestic golf courses in the State of Utah at the adjacent Millsite golf course. From picturesque desert views to a magnificent waterfall this course is sure to be a challenge and can make for one of the most entertaining rounds of golf you'll ever experience. Some challenges include tee shots shooting over cliffs and a par 3 rated one of the toughest holes in the State.

Facilities:

The popular and beautiful 22 site campground rests at the south end of the reservoir, and is a local favorite.
