About Willard
Founded in 1851, Willard combines rich pioneer history with spectacular scenery, quiet neighborhoods, and easy access to some of Northern Utah's finest outdoor recreation. The city is best known for its proximity to Willard Bay State Park — a premier destination for boating, fishing, sailing, paddleboarding, camping, and water sports. Residents also enjoy quick access to Willard Peak, Mantua Reservoir, Box Elder Canyon, the Wellsville Mountains, Brigham City, and the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest. Located directly along Interstate 15, Willard offers a peaceful small-town atmosphere with convenient commuting access to Ogden, Brigham City, Salt Lake City, and the greater Wasatch Front.
