Some people may ask, Where is Lake Powell? It is a commonly asked question. The lake is located both in Utah and Arizona. The southernmost area of Lake Powell is in Page, AZ but most of the lake is in Utah. It stretches from the Glen Canyon Dam past the Arizona/Utah border and northeast over 180 water miles to the Hite Marina. When you look at the Lake Powell map, it doesn't give justice to the sheer size of this recreational area.

So those people who are wondering “Where is Lake Powell?” may not find the exact answer they are looking for due to the surprising size of the lake. The truth is, visitors to Powell can arrive by way of a couple areas that are quite far apart from each other. Travelers to Lake Powell from the west can enter the area by way of St. George, UT and rent a Lake Powell houseboat in Page, AZ at the Wahweap Marina. Visitors heading to Powell from the south can get to Page, AZ and the Wahweap Marina through Flagstaff, AZ. Travelers coming from the east can enter in through Moab, UT or even Farmington, NM and pick up their Lake Powell houseboat at the Bullfrog Marina. Lake Powell is quite close to the four-corners area and the upper Bullfrog Marina can be accessed easily from the east.
