Utah Lake State Park is a state park in Provo, Utah, United States.[5] The park is located at the west end of Provo Center Street on the east shore of Utah Lake (the largest fresh water lake in the state) and immediately northwest of the Provo Municipal Airport.[6]

Each camping site includes running water and electricity (30 amps). Campers should bring their own firewood and charcoal, as each site is also equipped with a fire pit and barbecue grill. A table and awnings are also provided at each. The bathrooms are clean, but there are native insects such as spiders and mosquitoes.
