It&#8217;s a more popular spot to go in Northern Utah + tends to get busy on the weekend. Buuut it is beautiful. It is so green right now + the drive alone is breathtaking. I would say a must go to! You can pay to go to the city beaches or pull off along the road to one of the side parking lots + beach it for free! If you aren&#8217;t as into water sports, you can bike around the lake as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>CAUSEY RESERVOIR <\/strong>| this is the perfect place for paddle boarding + kayaking. No motor boats are allowed so the waters stay pretty peaceful all day. The views are amazing + lots of spots to stop + cliff jump. It can get crowded for parking, be sure to get there early + pack a lunch. We take our <strong>yeti<\/strong> cooler for day trips! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>TONY GROVE LAKE <\/strong>| this is a hidden gem not far from Logan &#8211; on your way to Bear Lake. It&#8217;s 5-6 minute drive off the path in Logan Canyon. Totally paved, you can drive right up to the Lake. There are wildflowers alllll around the lake + campground in the summer time. Be sure to stop by the poppy field at Box Elder Campground if you&#8217;re going up from Salt Lake soon! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ADAMS RESERVOIR <\/strong>| this is a local sort of secret spot that our our friends told us about. Not a lot of people know about it, so it&#8217;s perfect for a mellow day paddleboarding + simple living. The boys have been asking to go fishing. We plan to go in the next couple of weeks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>IVINS RESERVOIR <\/strong>| you can see our paddleboarding adventures at <strong>Ivin&#8217;s here<\/strong>. Ivins is down south, near St George. This post about Ivins includes our recipe for a perfect day at the lake! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"1125\" src=\"https:\/\/theparrishplace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/gparrish-299-750x1125.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"17470\" data-link=\"https:\/\/theparrishplace.com\/?attachment_id=17470\" class=\"wp-image-17470\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theparrishplace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/gparrish-299-750x1125.jpg 750w, https:\/\/theparrishplace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/gparrish-299.jpg 800w, https:\/\/theparrishplace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/gparrish-299-300x450.jpg 300w, https:\/\/theparrishplace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/gparrish-299-600x900.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"1125\" src=\"https:\/\/theparrishplace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/gparrish-333-750x1125.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"17471\" data-link=\"https:\/\/theparrishplace.com\/?attachment_id=17471\" class=\"wp-image-17471\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theparrishplace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/gparrish-333-750x1125.jpg 750w, https:\/\/theparrishplace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/gparrish-333.jpg 800w, https:\/\/theparrishplace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/gparrish-333-300x450.jpg 300w, https:\/\/theparrishplace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/gparrish-333-600x900.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"1125\" src=\"https:\/\/theparrishplace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/gparrish-419-750x1125.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17472\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theparrishplace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/gparrish-419-750x1125.jpg 750w, https:\/\/theparrishplace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/gparrish-419.jpg 800w, https:\/\/theparrishplace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/gparrish-419-300x450.jpg 300w, https:\/\/theparrishplace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/gparrish-419-600x900.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>We encourage you to get outside!
