context_page_description: Spring Lake is a census-designated place in southern Utah County, Utah, United States. It is part of the Provo–Orem Metropolitan Statistical Area. The population was 458 at the 2010 census. It is an unincorporated part of Utah County, located just south of Payson and north of Santaquin.
context_section_description: Much of Spring Lake consists of farms and ranches, with many people owning horses, cattle, and raising alfalfa and hay for their animals.  Being located between Payson and Santaquin, the rural area may give way to more homes in the coming years, but as there is no city water for many, wells are needed which place a limit of one house per 5.25 acres (21,200 m²) of land.  Only when city water is provided will greater housing density be possible.
  The main transportation route through the city is Utah State Route 198 (South State Street), which follows the former routing of U.S. Route 6 and the pre-1974 routing of U.S. Route 91. Although Interstate 15 forms the western border of Spring Lake, there is no direct access to the freeway within the community. There are no businesses or stoplights in Spring Lake as of 2018.
  Spring Lake was the birthplace of Antonga Black Hawk, the famous Ute leader. Antonga led many raids on settlements during Utah's Black Hawk War. After his death in 1870 he was buried in Spring Lake. In 1911 his body was discovered by miners, and moved to an LDS Church museum in Salt Lake City, but was later returned to Spring Lake.
