This man-made lake and state park have always been a local favorite. It costs $15 to get in unless you have a season pass. There are 2 boating docks and restrooms and they maintain the facility quite well. Many camp/RV sites but almost always full. You can park on the highway above and walk down to several nice beaches as well, maybe about 2/3 block walk. Its a beautiful place!

Nice camping spot by the water. Swimming is allowed, but not by the boat launch area. Clean bathrooms with flush toilets. Outside pay shower available. There are also rentals for kayaks and jet skis but didnt check that out. Some nice trails close by for hiking or riding.

Amazing time with amazing people. Very beautiful place to be. Its 20 dollar per vehicle but entirely worth every cent for that price

Quail lake is a very calm chill lake as its small and most speed boats stay away. If you like to kayak or paddleboard its definitely nice as its pretty much wake less in a lot of areas.You must get here early to find parking or park along the road and take a rocky way down if you plan on bringing stuff down.

This is one of the Best parks ive been to, an oasis is the only word to describe it, beautiful panorama with sandy beach area to soak in the water which by the way had the perfect temperature for the summer heat,fishing,kayaking, boating and swiming. BBQ on your own propane grill. No open fires or charcoal use during the time we were there as the Fire Danger was Very High. Camping area and RV is available but plan ahead because this place packs up on weekends and holidays. Watercraft rentals are also available and the bathrooms were clean with flush toilets, so no ditch pot and smelling others peoples happy.I highly recommend it here for camping and day use its worth it.

Fun family friendly place to spend the day. After enjoying our picnic on the empty table we found, we chilled & read our books while the teens enjoyed the 2 man canoe we rented.Just glad we brought our umbrellas- since shade is limited. All workers were kind and helpful.

7/2020: We are from a CA beach city, but love going to lakes. We found this lake to be awesome for our young kids. Make sure to bring an umbrella, chairs, ice chest, sand toys, rafts. There is ample shore space and the water is warm, but not hot. Motorboats are allowed, but you see tons of paddle boards & kayaks. Super fun day!

Cool little camp site. Its small and only allow a certain amount of people in, so its perfect. The lake is so close to all the sites so you can walk there. The only cover there is a bench with a cover but other than that better take a ez-up

Favorite little hidden gem in St George. Very small and can get crowded with just a few boats but you can’t beat the views or the scenery. Always love boating here when we make a quick trip to southern Utah. If you are looking for a place to have fun and make some great memories look no further!

It was really nice! Not too busy for a Saturday. Some nice shady areas on the beach.

Great State Park just a few minutes from the 15. We stayed here just for the night while on our road trip as the campgrounds were cheap, maybe $20 and the lock the entrance gate at night and its nice and secure. I recommend booking in advance (we had arranged reservations) as it stated campground full as we pulled in. Its right off a beautiful lake and had a boat launch for watercraft. Beautiful views all around and so glad we had discovered this place. Dry camping only, but water is available at various locations.Looks like most of the sites are pull through sites (or at least ours was) and each spot had these cool shaded picnic tables.

Great fun for swimming, boating, fishing, floating, and basking in the sun! Ive met some great locals and out of towners! Please clean up after ourselves and others! Please keep this lake open and free of charge!

Very pretty! Water is a pretty aqua blue, other boaters and jet skiers are polite, and it’s easy to get in and out of. I definitely prefer this lake over Sand Hollow.

This is the only lake Ive been to since Ive moved from slc to hurricane at the end of March of 2020... I love it! Its close to home and during the week half anyones there, so if you like to spend time with yourself or family and fitness i suggest you go during the day in the middle of the week. On the weekends its popping with a lot of awesome people!

Well kept campground fairly close to us Las Vegas residents. This trip the water level was low, but still a good time. No showers, but clean flush toilets.Also no open fires statewide, but seriously I cant imagine a major fire starting from this desert campground. Its ok we brought a propane campfire and it replicated a normal fire pretty well. It was a good 2 night trip.*****beware of the ground squirrels, they will eat any food left unattended, keep food locked up!*****

When we visited, there were not many people on the lake so it was very smooth for riding Jet skis. Perfect for teaching my boys to ride and not worry about a collision.

We loved camping here. Our campsite (#8) had a small tent pad, but that was ok because we had a small tent. It would have been an issue with a larger one, so make sure you get a bigger site if needed.The fishing was fun and with a bit of walking we were able to find some shoreline that we had to ourselves. The water was clear and good for swimming too. The restrooms were great (no showers) and the staff was very nice.

Quail Creek is beautiful! The water is clean and a good temperature, not too cold. Amenities are good, plenty of activities to enjoy the water, paddle boarding, kayaking, jet skis, and boating! Great place to spend the day!

Campground is ok. We had a site with hookups, which was good since it was hot. Most CG sites appear to be very unlevel. Pretty quiet area with lovely sunset views.

Smaller lake for leisure activities. Beaches are more rocky than sandy, and if there are more than 5 boats on the water it easily gets to choppy to ski. There are also RV camp sites, as well as paddle board and kayak rentals.

Such a beautiful place, for swimming, boating and fishing. We have so much fun!!

Even on stormy days this lake is beautiful! It has well maintained facilities, and a fish cleaning station. Weve had a lot of great fishing days here. We also always buy our annual pass here, because its our favorite lake and we support them however we can! The staff here is friendly and knowledgeable, and weve only had good experiences.

Quail Creek is a very fun play to visit. The lake is nice place to visit during the summer. Not so much during the winter. I come here to have lots of fun with my friends and family.

I havent had this much fun in such a long time! I could go on and on and on about why you should come here. The price is amazing!!! I feel like I was able to get a quality paddleboard for a quality price. Rented a random for 4 hours and it was only 60! So great! And the staff was AMAZING! seriously I dont go many places where the staff goes out of their way to be that kind. Every one of those employees had the biggest smiles, the happiest laughs and demeanor, and the best service. I was quickly helped, explained things multiple times in the ki dest way. And really felt like they interacted with me like they were my friend. I didnt expect that. I thought I would get my paddleboard and go like every other lake, but this was different. Theyre doing something special here. Between the service and the price, Ill be back time and time again. The lake was also the perfect size! Good for boating and wave runners, but also there was enough little cove areas for paddleboarding. The beaches were really nice and they have built in cornhole and horse shoes game areas. Sandy and nice! The water is a good mix of cool and warm, so its a delight to be in, especially in the heat of southern utah. Id recommend this for old and young, a solo trip, friend trip, family outing, everything! Ill be going back so many times. Also the beaches are clean. and the water is clear. I had trouble finding trash cans so when you come bring bags to put your trash in, but other than that it is wonderful!

Beautiful park, beautiful State! Love Utah.. would definitely go back again

I want to tell everyone to come to this park if you want a quiet calm and spacious spot. We drove to this one first thought it was a bit small so we drove over to the other bigger one down the road and drove right back! It’s beach area maybe a bit more limited but it was a beautiful and quite setting. Totally recommend! The entrance gate let us drive around and pick from the available spots. It’s so nice to be able to pick instead of assigned. I really appreciate that!

As a guest of the Quail Creek State Park, I wish to praise and applaud the astonishing cleanliness and professional maintenance in this park. I have never seen such a beautifully-kept, amazingly clean, well-maintained, and tidy park in my life. The bathrooms are super clean and there are no litter at all in the park. Thank you very much for being such great and responsible stewards of God’s beautiful creations. Thanks also to the outstanding professionalism of Candace, the manager, and Pat, the host.Ken

In the spring, summer and fall, Quail Lake is busy. This year with CoVid19 changing peoples schedules and many people traveling from out of state, it has been full with high use closures often.Staff is polite and efficient, but too few for the higher visitation.

The rentals hut needs to be a little more clear about what’s going on. At shift change everything gets really disorganized. My experience was really negative. We rented a balance board and one paddle for all day use. They were really quick to charge and we gave an ID to them to hold. We were not at that time explained any further procedure besides at the end of your day return the items and get your ID back. So when it came that time to get the ID back no one at the beach helped for a while we finally tracked someone down with a radio walkie-talkie to help us. She took our board and didn’t say anything else. So my spouse went to the hut and get her ID. Well she wasn’t doing her job and no one mentioned we needed to get our ticket back as well. So when my spouse tried to they took the paddle and turned her away.Confused she came back to me and we both went up to try again. There the lady working told us what needed to happen but none of the other employees had said anything remotely close to what she was telling us. Well after what feels like a battle we got her ID back. All I’m saying is train all your people to speck up and if you have A certain procedure that needs to be followed make sure it gets followed by everyone working. I as a customer did not neglect to bend the rules or make up my own. I was simply not explained things the way they should’ve been. So then to keep saying we neglected to do so is not cool. I don’t work there I just wanted my wife’s ID back so please don’t make it seem like I’m stupid and don’t know what’s going on. Other people if this has happened to you as well don’t stay quiet. This is why we leave reviews positive when good and negative when bad.

Are family was there from 06/19/2020-06/21/2020 we couldnt was the pit to cook which shouldve been noted was forced to go buy a propane grill...there also was no coin operated showers! I feel like it was false advertisement on the website...clearly! Beautiful place and great staff!

Came fishing with my best friend dave and my fianceé Antonio

If you don’t own anymore a paddleboard, you can rent one here. And paddle around at this beautiful nature, very calm creek.

Lots of fun. Clean and great options for rental gear. Will be back again soon!!

Good for boating. Decent for swimming. Rocky beaches (no sand). Rental shop people are really nice. Can get really windy. Lots of trees in the water.

Beautiful blue water on a sunny day. Would like to try the mountain bike hills that appear to be just outside the park, so free apparently. Beach is coarse sand and rock, of course, so bring shoes you can get wet. Campground doesnt have shade, but the picnic tables have a shade wall attached.

Lovely water for swimming , a nice beach and clean campgrounds that are quiet and peaceful.

It was fun but the wind got too strong in the afternoon and made it hard to enjoy. There was very little shade and the shore was very rocky. However, we still had a good time and the kids loved playing on the water carpet that we rented.

Great place to spend with friends and family! You can rent kayaks as and long boards! Boats and jet ski are welcome!

Not crowded at all! Beautiful and relaxing. Got there on a Saturday morning at about 8:30am and there was plenty of space to set up and relax for the day. Went back the following day (Sunday) at 9am and had the same results. If you get there after 10:30am you may not get into the park due to capacity so just keep that in mind when you head out there. Oh and take water shoes, those rocks hurt lol Unless you have tough feet

I grew up going to Quail because of the scenery and peace and quiet compare to the other lakes in the St. George area. The lake is fed by a small stream on the north end of the lake that offers a tree-covered cove perfect for swimming and not worrying about boats or jet skis driving near you or little ones. They also have camping for tents, rvs, etc, and paddle board/kayaking rentals.

Is great and clean place, is a beautiful place for camping and we can rent kayaks for a affordable price

The creek was very beautiful and peaceful you can enjoy your day there fishing or do a picnic. There is some shade and the weather is beautiful during this time of year. The creek is also very fresh and clean.The reason why I chose 3 stars was due to the service we got the person attending the both was a bit rude. The guy didnt want to give us the senior discount even though they had the discount on display.The same guy gave us number to rent a boat or kayaks but the number didnt work and said it was the only one. So we went to explore and saw a little business later on that was also renting kayaks so I dont know if he wasnt knowledgeable about other business or was just trying to promote one certain business.But regardless of all that its a good place to visit but you should look into businesses where you can rent boats,kayaks, jetskis or paddle boards before you go to this place that way u can enjoy it better and also there is an entrance fee which is about $15-20 depending if your out of state or not.

Such a great place to go boating and swimming. I love Quail and its my favorite lake around these parts. It has shade trees and is often not too crowded. The water is normally at a good temp. The beaches are a little rocky but not too bad and the good thing is there are a lot of crawdads under the rocks right near the shore. If you are in the mood to go fishing use worms and fish off the bottom. You should have some luck especially if you have a boat. Highly Recommend this lake, its wonderful to be out anytime of the year.

Great place to swim. Not crowded during the week. Can rent jet skis..

Kayaked for the first time here and it was an awesome experience. Water is clean and if you kayak or paddle board to the back side the water is clear blue!

Spent one night here spur of the moment on a busy Easter week. The staff at the front gate were very accommodating giving me one of the last remaining spots.The campground is clean and well taken care of however the closeness of the spots and lack of showers knock it down at least a star. Good for a night but would not stay more unless it were during the off season.

Great park. Water is nice. Beach is ok, sorta rocky. Clean facilities.

Always fun to hang out at Quail Lake State Park. For a fee you can go where the beaches. Or one of the many pull-offs are free and you can hike in a short distance to the lake and pretty much have your own little private spot.

Very extremely beautiful, I can see why so many people come here

This creek is beautiful all year round and is one of our favorite places to go and cool off in the heat. It also has many things to do, I recommend bringing some water toys and flotation things.

Cool little lake to visit with the family. Fishing, swimming, boating, walking, etc. Good times.

I love quail Creek. We went and rented kayaks and everything was in great working order and the shores were very clean.

Great weather and excellent trout fishing last visit

Beautiful lake just north of St. George. I am pretty sure it is The Great Salt Lake. One more item checked off on my bucket list. Its a lot smaller than I thought it would be. I couldnt find the Salt Flats, I know they are around here somewhere. I dont know what there is to do here as I saw no beach.

Make sure to bring water shoes , floaties and your own shade

Well taken care of park with lots of staff patrolling to help keep it clean. As long as others do thier part it can stay that way. Beaches were rocky but nice. We will be back.

Our family really enjoy hanging out here and letting the kids play. “Beach” areas was sufficient and easy to access.

Loved the area for Swimming. Though rocky in certain areas where I swam it was a good change from lap pool swimming..

Good food for a good price, and the Bloomin Onion is great. They could have better beer selection.

Pretty nice reservoir, we will be able to swim, defenetly we are going to come back

Its a small lake but had good fishing

This lake is clean, not too busy, and has great sand and rock play areas. I really like that around the lake there are benches and tables and lots of shade. We camped and the camping are was small and felt a little crowded but it had clean nice amenities, wind and shade covers, and was right next to the lake.

Great place to dry camp or hook ups. Weather is just about perfect for end of May. Water isnt too cold and not to hot during the days. Nights get cold but not to cold. Restrooms on premise are very cleaned and maintained.

Great little gem in the heart of Southern Utah. Prices are on par with other parks in the region. The only issues with camping here is the fact you cannot enter after 9PM. Will be back here more this coming year!

Probably not quite as nice as Sand Hollow, but water is perfect temperature and lake is not as crowded.

Such a beautiful place to fish! I love how much room there is out here!

A little too crowded for my liking. So we left and went to Gunlock res.

SUP Pilates Amazing experience, as always!

Place is pretty nice for kayak and boating but full of stones on shores, small trees are added advantages , if it filled with sand its a heaven but its all hard rocks difficult to walk

Very beautiful, get there early if you want a good spot.

Super cute and fun. The water was a bit murky, but otherwise a great campsite with a beautiful view.

Great place to take the family out and play in the water on those hot summer days. The sunsets are beautiful and this lake tends to be less busy than Sand Hollow. But if you have a couple boats going and some kayakers, it can get crowded quick. The easy access beaches are limited and the best beaches can be reached by boat or kayak on the east side of the lake. If you can catch the lake early and with very little people, its like a slice of heaven!

Beautiful lake, great fishing, great family fun! The shores are a little rocky, I recommend water shoes.

Beautiful! The water is so calm and clear. I already cant wait to go back!

Over load of fun, excitement, and sun. I love love love coming rio the south side for free to swim here. The crowds are small and theres plenty of room for every one to have their own spot to go swimming. Some times people dont put their dogs on leashes and that can be annoying. Music is to be played by us all the time. The water is clear, warm and so beautiful.

Super family friendly, especially with really small children. Beautiful and clean.

Its an easy access, it has camping, and the kayaking and paddle boarding is great

So pretty and relaxing! the waters super clean too!!

We love Quail. The quiet less crowded step sibling to Sand Hollow. :)

Been going here for over 20 years. Always a good fun time!

Fun local water play area. Unfortunately, shore areas have lots of sharp rocks, requiring water shoes to avoid injury.

Nice distance between camp sites. Nice view of the reservoir.

Water sports rentals and easy boat launch. Volleyball horseshoes tetherball n cornhole spot. Overall cool def be back!

Best fishing lake in Washington County.

Beautiful, clean and peaceful! $10 entry fee for the day. So worth it! No food vendors, bring your own food. Water is clean and warm enough to swim in. You can rent kayaks or paddle boards. So beautiful here!!!

We had so much fun.....first time

Nice little state park with a 3 or 4 lane ramp, docks down both sides. The parking area is small. Best thing we found here was the river inlet coming in. There was high water so we were able to boat up the river quite a ways.

Always a good way to get out of the summer heat. Weekends are crowded so get there early.

Beautiful views and great easy to get to fishing spots with some decent sized trout, bass and more.

Its been really nice whenever we go swimming or kayaking.

This is a great alternative if Sand hollow State Park is full. The water is nice and clear.

Rented a kayak for a couple hours. Nice day, recommended for singles, couples and families.

First time visitors last weekend. Sand Hallow was packed really early, we headed to Quail Creek on a friend suggestion. We loved it!! Alot of flat spots available for setting up popup tents. FYI No charcoal allowed!!!!

The most beautiful swimming hole Ive had the pleasure of visiting. Was a bit crowded, but not so much so that you couldnt find a spot for yourself.

We had a great time at Quail Creek. The water is clean, parking is close, some shade and picnic tables are available. We stayed 4 days at Snow Creek but we had come here to cool off on 2 different occasions.

This place is beautiful and often not as crowded. I go back every chance I get!

Great reseviour, fishing was good, close to a number of great sights like Zions and dinasour tracks. Bonus, the state site said their was no rv hookups, they just recently installed rv water and power. I counted 8 stalls with them. All of the stall on the outside ring furthest from the water.

The water was up and warm great for kayaking in the morning wind is an issue in the afternoon. You can paddle up the creek quite a ways.

Plenty of shoreline and parking. Great fun for large groups. There is a kayak rental store right there in the parking lot. There are picnic benches scattered about. I would bring a canopy in the summer because there is no shade anywhere.

The best part about this lake and the side that no payment its required is that you can bring your dogs and not need to have them in a leash. I love the environment and the peaceful water.
