Jackson Flat Reservoir is a great place for recreation near Kanab, Utah. Fishing, paddle boarding, kayaking and playing on the beach are all great things to do here.

The beach also has a great playground, workout area and sand volleyball court. There is even a full 18-hole frisbee golf course!

There is also a 3.2 mile paved trail that loops the lake. Jackson Flat Reservoir is stocked with rainbow trout, brown trout, brook trout, largemouth bass, sunfish, and catfish, so it’s a great place for fishing! Kanab gets hot in the summer so this is a wonderful place to cool off!
