Stage 2 Fire Restrictions are currently in effect at Bear Lake State Park, prohibiting all open fires of any kind. This restriction includes fires within established fire pits, charcoal grills, pellet grills, and any other ash-producing fuel.
Properly shielded portable camp stoves fueled by gas or liquid that feature a shut-off valve remain allowed. These stoves must be used in an area at least three feet in diameter that is barren with no flammable vegetation.
Located in the Bear Lake Valley in Rich County, the state park offers three distinct recreation areas: Marina, Rendezvous Beach, and the Eastside. These areas provide opportunities for boating, fishing, camping, hiking, and picnicking.
The lake's notable aqua-blue color is created by calcium carbonate minerals suspended in the water. The park features sandy beaches and blue waters for visitors.
Visitors can find information regarding construction updates at the Bear Lake Marina on the official park website. The park provides various facilities, rentals, and food options for those visiting the area.
