Strawberry Reservoir is located 65 miles from the Wasatch Front and the cities of Provo, Salt Lake, and Orem. Known as the most popular fishing spot in Utah, the 17,164-acre Strawberry Reservoir is part of the 1922 Strawberry Valley Project and was formed as the result of the construction of Strawberry Dam on the Strawberry River. The reservoir was enlarged in 1973 to hold 1,106,500 acre-feet of water. Surrounded by the scenic Wasatch Mountains, Strawberry Reservoir is a popular recreation destination, especially for fishing. There are four public ramps for easy boat access, and the Strawberry Bay Marina is located at Strawberry Bay. There is also Renegade Point at the southwestern side of Meadows Basin, Soldier Creek Marina on the northern shore, and Aspen Grove at southern shore of the Soldier Creek Basin. Parts of the lake lie within Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest, offering solitude and spectacular hikes through the wilderness. There are 1,524 miles of hiking and biking trails and 245 miles of trails for motorized vehicles. Map
