Springville City operates over 400 acres of parks and campgrounds in Hobble Creek Canyon. The parks include Jolley’s Ranch, Kelly’s Grove, and Rotary Park. The areas are located just past Hobble Creek Golf Course on both forks of Hobble Creek Canyon Road. The Canyon Parks offer picnicking, camping, pavilion rentals, and winter recreation opportunities.
We have ten pavilions of various sizes available to rent in our Canyon Parks. The pavilions may be rented for family gatherings, company parties, and other events. All of our pavilions are fee areas. Use of our pavilions is by paid reservation only. Rental rates depend on pavilion size and length of the reservation. Pavilion areas are open April – September, weather permitting.

Jolley’s Ranch has a campground with over 50 campsites. The campsites are of various sizes and can accommodate RV and/or tent camping. Our campsites include such amenities as water and electricity hookups. There are toilets on site. There are no sewage facilities available. All campsites must be paid for when occupied and check out time is 1:00 pm. There is a seven day camping limit. The campground is never included with a pavilion rental. Campground is open April - October, weather permitting.
