Utah State Parks are currently open — with some limitations in areas where local health orders are in place. Bear Lake State Park is open only to Rich County Residents.
"We encourage everyone visiting state parks practice #ResponsibleRecreation. This means: separating yourself and honoring the social distance of others, avoiding crowded trailheads and areas; and keeping parks and facilities clean.
We advise park visitors to always use their best judgment when determining the safety of themselves and their families. Guests are encouraged to practice healthy hygiene and avoid visiting parks if they feel ill or are having symptoms.
Please help keep our parks and park facilities clean and tidy by cleaning up after yourself in the restroom and informing our staff of any deficiencies you may encounter."
Utah State Parks is following the guidance and recommendations of our health partners. This includes social distancing and limiting the size of groups — as well as “Clean-Avoid-Cover” guidelines. Visit coronavirus.utah.gov for up-to-date information about COVID-19 in Utah.

Bear Lake State Park is open to everyone. We ask that visitors to the park practice appropriate social distancing and recreate in groups less than 10 people. Responsible Recreation. As of Friday, April 17, 2020, Governor Herbert opened Utah State Parks to all people where there is not a local health department or county closure.
Secondary home residents should be included. They pay substantial property taxes to Rich County. If you possess a tax statement you should certainly be allowed to visit the park.
John is correct as full time residents only pay 45% of their assessed property taxes and secondary homeowners pay 100% of their property taxes.
