About Scofield State Park

Scofield State Park sits high in the Manti-La Sal Mountains around a reservoir at about 7,600 feet. Visitors can fish, boat, kayak, hike, and camp in summer, and ice fish or cross-country ski and snowmobile in winter. The park has two campgrounds near the water, one near the dam and one on the northern shore, and offers day-use and overnight options. The reservoir is known as a Blue Ribbon Fishery for trout. The surrounding town was once a busy coal mining community, and the park opened to the public in 1965. The park is winterized for the season, so restrooms and showers are closed and water is unavailable, with only electricity and pit toilets open.
