Discover Starvation State Park RV rentals for memorable road trips

Also known as Fred Hayes State Park, Starvation State Park was officially established in 1972 when the dam was completed. Starvation State Park borders a 3,500-acre reservoir. It’s believed that a small settlement near the Strawberry River was established in the late 1800s, and this settlement struggled to survive in a harsh, arid region that Utah is well-known for.

The Great Outdoors

Although Starvation State Park is only around 800 acres, it lines the shores of the Starvation Reservoir, which has a surface area of 3,500 acres. The pristine aquamarine water of the reservoir is perfect for walleye fish, and they are especially robust. Fishermen frequently catch trophy-sized walleye fish that weigh over 10 pounds. The Walleye Classic Fishing Tournament has been held annually since 1991, and several other smaller tournaments are held on the lake frequently. In addition to walleye, other fish like yellow perch, smallmouth bass, rainbow, brown, and cutthroat trout, carp, and kokanee salmon are common.

Camping at Starvation State Park

Rent an RV and skip the long, lonely drive from the closest hotel. Wake up to rosy rocks colored by the rising sun. Starvation State Park RV campgrounds have six campgrounds, two of which are developed. The Beach Campground is, as the name suggests, waterfront. It has restrooms with flush toilets, hot showers, electric and water hookups for all RV sites, and fire pits at each site.

Exploring the Area

As remote and isolated as this region is, with a little patience and the help of a motorhome rental, the nearby towns are just a heartbeat away. Vernal, UT, is nicknamed “Dino town,” because of the abundance of fossil finds in the area. There are two museums that centers around dinosaurs: the Utah Field House of Natural History State Park Museum and Dinosaur Land. Vernal also holds an annual Games, Anime, and More festival in the town.
