Deer Creek Reservoir is the main feature of Deer Creek State Park.

Deer Creek is home to several fish species, including Largemouth and Smallmouth Bass, Rainbow Trout, Brown Trout, Yellow Perch, Walleye and Common Carp. Some anglers have also reported catching kokanee salmon at the reservoir as well, likely from the healthy population at Jordanelle Reservoir that made their way down stream. State biologists don't see Deer Creek as sustaining, or having the capacity to sustain a healthy kokanee salmon population.
