GOLF:
The Cache Valley area offers several excellent golf courses. The Logan River Golf Course ranks in the top 10 courses in Utah and one of the top 500 courses in the country.

"For the best golf around, Logan can't be beat. Both for cost and play, with three courses within a twenty-minute drive."

"We have been going to Logan during the summer for the past six years. As we drove through Wellsville Canyon and made the turn for that first view of Logan and the beautiful Cache Valley, I was in love with that place. Little did I know then that besides the picturesque setting we would meet wonderful new friends and enjoy a summer of fun filled days. Fishing is the thing we enjoy the most. Most times we catch our limit of fish but even if we caught none, the time spent in Logan Canyon is serene and restful. Now that I am home I can close my eyes and see that spot by the river. How beautiful it must be with a powdering of snow. I'll be back!!"

The unique azure blue color of Bear Lake coined the nickname "Caribbean of the rockies." Bear Lake, Utah's second largest freshwater lake, is 20 miles long land 8 miles wide. Personal watercraft, sailboats and ski boats can be rented right in town or on some of the beaches. The east shore is a popular spot for scuba divers, since it drops to a depth of 208 feet.
