Fremont Island is a 2,943.04-acre island located in Great Salt Lake in northern Utah, United States. State owned, it is the lake's third largest island after Stansbury Island and Antelope Island. The island has also been known by several other names, including mo'ko-mom-bĭtc, Castle Island, Coffin Island, Disappointment Island, and Miller Island.
In February 2018 Fremont Island was purchased by a group that included diesel truck entrepreneur David "Heavy D" Sparks as an investment. Great Salt Lake conservation groups expressed concern over potential future plans for the island, including a development plan to build thousands of homes there, and hoped that the State of Utah would acquire the land. In December 2020 the island was donated to the State of Utah by The Nature Conservancy, which had purchased the island to prevent commercial development. The state will own and manage the island for public recreational use, and The Nature Conservancy holds an easement to ensure the island's continued preservation.
