The park is used for fishing, boating, camping, picnicking, hiking, waterskiing, and swimming. The park was named for Hyrum Smith, the brother of LDS church founder Joseph Smith. Hyrum State Park's facilities are located at the northern shore of the reservoir, and include 31 RV campsites, restrooms, showers, a ranger station, boat ramp, dock, and trailheads.

Fish in the reservoir include yellow perch, channel catfish, rainbow trout, largemouth bass, and bluegill.
