Why homebuyers choose Stansbury Park, a community west of SLC
Stansbury Park offers a quieter side of life, where residents have easy access to outdoor recreation and everyday conveniences to the west of Salt Lake City. Homebuyers are drawn to the community's mix of established and newer homes, neighborhood parks and activities on Stansbury Lake. While many residents commute into the city, Stansbury Park is the place they come home, with schools, restaurants and routes to downtown Tooele just moments away.
Stansbury Park offers many outdoor activities.

Housing includes late 20th-century homes and newer Craftsman styles
Development in the community started around the 1980s, so homebuyers will find a range of established properties and contemporary Craftsman styles. Prices tend to range from the lower $400,000s to the mid-$600,000s. People in the Wild Horse Ranch subdivision pay less than $10 a month in HOA fees, while most Stansbury Park residents have no HOA fees at all. Although the area has grown, it still feels like a community tucked away in its own corner of Tooele County. "It’s pretty small, and it has a very connected, neighborly feel,” says Caleb Metzger of Wise Choice Real Estate and resident of Stansbury Park.
Some homes in Stansbury Park offer lakeside living.
Stansbury Park enjoys easy access to the lake and golf course.

Ways to enjoy the lake, golf course, library and the stars
Stansbury Park was designed with recreation at its heart. There are pocket parks with playgrounds spread throughout the community, and residents are moments from the man-made Stansbury Lake. “Water activities like swimming and boating are a big part of life here, which is pretty rare around Salt Lake," Metzger says. "There’s also tons of hiking within a 20-minute drive, so it’s always easy to get outdoors.”
You can paddleboard and kayak on the lake, or you might spend the day at the pool near the Stansbury Park Library. The Stansbury Park Golf Course is across the street from the library and offers an 18-hole course. The Stansbury Park Observatory Complex, managed by the Salt Lake Astronomical Society, hosts public viewing nights and features some of the largest telescopes in the state.
Boating on the lake is an option in Stansbury Park.

Multiple public schools are moments from home

Bonneville Academy, also in the community, is a public charter school that teaches kindergarten through eighth grade with a STEM-focused curriculum.
Old Mill Elementary School serves Stansbury Park.
Stansbury Park Elementary School is centrally located for students in Stansbury Park.

Interstate 80 access and bus routes to Salt Lake City
The sidewalk-lined streets make it possible to walk to pocket parks and the lake. When residents want to get out of the neighborhood, places like downtown Tooele and Salt Lake City are a quick drive away. “A lot of people here commute to the city for work,” says Metzger. “It’s usually not too bad, but [Interstate} 80 is basically the only fast way into the city." Interstate 80 runs just north of the community, providing a direct route into Salt Lake City, about 30 miles away. State Route 36 runs along the eastern side of the area, connecting it to Tooele in about 10 miles, and other parts of the county. Utah Transit Authority buses pick up passengers along Stansbury Parkway and connect to neighboring communities and Salt Lake City.
Stansbury Park has a few restaurants and stores, with more nearby
While Stansbury Park is mostly residential, you have a few options when it comes to restaurants. The small shopping center on Village Boulevard has:
Ditta Caffe, a locally owned restaurant where you can get breakfast, lunch or a quick coffee
Hug-Hes American Kitchen and Catering, which serves classic dishes, from salads to burgers
United Slice, a regional chain where you can dine in or order pizza to-go
Barnyard Coffee & Pop, off Bates Canyon Road, is where you can get coffee and see cows roaming the property. You're also close to Soelberg's Market, for groceries, and Sportsman's Warehouse. There are also doctors' offices and even an animal hospital nearby, so residents have conveniences close to home. Tooele has even more restaurants and shops.
Residents of Stansbury Park enjoy retail options along state Route 36.
There are many retail opportunities for Stansbury Park residents within the state Route 36 corridor.

Festivals and events in Stansbury Park and Tooele throughout the year
Stansbury Park hosts the annual Stansbury Days, a three-day festival in August that draws residents with a parade, fireworks display and plenty of vendors and food trucks. For more to do, residents also take quick trips to downtown Tooele for annual events, like:
Downtown Fest, a car show and live music every June at Veterans Memorial Park
Downtown Tooele Wizard Fest, a street festival every August, with magical vendors and a movie showing at the Historical Ritz Theatre
Downtown Fiesta, a September celebration where people can enter pinata contests and enjoy dancing to live music
