Why Go

This is where the flatwater starts. Boaters put in here for the 120-mile run through Labyrinth and Stillwater canyons, a stretch the park rates for beginners and intermediate boaters. The campground sits under a full canopy of cottonwoods at 4,050 feet, and that shade is the difference between a pleasant July night and a miserable one. There is also a community fishing pond stocked with bass, trout, bluegill, and channel catfish if the river itself is running muddy.

Do this: Golf (9 holes), camping, river floating, melon season!

Family note: Lazy-river country

Why visit Green River State Park?
For a shaded campground in a stretch of Utah that has almost none, plus a nine-hole golf course you would not expect in a town this size. It is also the put-in for multi-day float trips downriver, and the third weekend of September brings Melon Days.
