Ophir, Utah

Homes with RV Parking for Sale in Ophir, Utah

Ophir is one of the smallest incorporated towns in Utah — a former silver-mining settlement of around 40 residents tucked into Ophir Canyon on the east side of the Oquirrh Mountains, about 45 minutes southwest of the Salt Lake Valley. Because the town grew out of mining claims and ranch parcels rather than tract development, lots here tend to run larger than anything you'd find in Tooele or along the Wasatch Front, and most homes already have the room for a fifth-wheel, travel trailer, or toy hauler without anyone needing to pour a new pad. That matters in this part of Utah: between Five Mile Pass OHV, the Knolls, Little Sahara, and easy tows to Strawberry and Utah Lake, the RV is part of daily life for a lot of households out here.

What buyers should know is that Ophir's setup is genuinely rural — no HOA, no curb-and-gutter subdivision rules, and Tooele County zoning that's friendlier to detached shops, RV ports, and tall garage doors than what you'll hit in St. George or Lehi. The tradeoffs are real too: the canyon road is narrow, winter snow loads are heavier than valley homes, and inventory is extremely thin, often just one or two active listings at a time. If a property with the right RV access shows up, it usually doesn't sit long. Browse the active listings below to see what's currently on the market in Ophir.

Common questions

About homes with rv parking in Ophir.

Is RV parking common on Ophir homes?

Yes. Ophir is a tiny former mining town tucked into Ophir Canyon off SR-73, and most parcels are larger than what you'd find in Tooele or Stansbury Park. Long gravel driveways, detached shops, and side yards big enough for a fifth-wheel or toy hauler are the norm rather than the exception here.

Are there HOA restrictions on parking an RV at the house?

Ophir Town itself has no HOA — it's an incorporated town of roughly 40 residents with minimal zoning overlays. You'll want to confirm setback requirements with Tooele County and check any deed restrictions on the specific parcel, but the blanket CC&R issues you'd hit in a Daybreak or Eagle Mountain subdivision aren't a factor.

Can I build a detached RV garage or covered RV port on an Ophir lot?

On most lots, yes. Larger parcels and the rural zoning make detached shops and tall RV ports realistic, though canyon lots can have slope and snow-load considerations. Check with Tooele County Planning on height limits and septic placement before designing anything over 14 feet tall.

Does the canyon road work for towing a large trailer in and out?

Ophir Canyon Road is paved and maintained, but it's a narrow two-lane that climbs from the Rush Valley floor. Towing a 30-foot trailer is doable and locals do it regularly — just plan around winter storms, since the canyon catches snow and the road can be slick in January and February.

What kind of RV-friendly recreation is nearby?

Ophir sits about 45 minutes from the Knolls and Five Mile Pass OHV areas, an hour from Little Sahara sand dunes, and within reach of the Stansbury and Oquirrh Mountain trail systems out the back door. For boaters, Rush Lake and Utah Lake are both short tows, and Bear Lake is about three hours northeast.

How many homes with RV parking typically come up for sale in Ophir?

Inventory is extremely thin — Ophir often has only one or two active listings at a time, and sometimes zero. When a property with a real RV setup hits the MLS, it tends to move quickly. The active listings below show what's currently available.
