What is at Daybreak?

Have you ever heard of the Daybreak 5 minute rule? I know there are lots of other 5 minute rules that range from texting responses to when you can sneak away from work. However, the Daybreak 5 minute rule is different. It means wherever you are in Daybreak, you are 5 minutes away from something awesome!

Daybreak is a planned community and the designers kept this rule in mind. As a result Daybreak has a lot of fantastic amenities sprinkled throughout the area.  Click here to view amap of Daybreak and amenities.

Daybreak has splash parks, pools, basketball & volleyball courts as well as community gardening spaces. In addition to the fabulous walking and running trails that circumnavigate all of Daybreak, certain areas have special amenities.


The Fitness Center which is conveniently located with Daybreak Elementary can be found in Founders Park. This way you can grab a quick workout when dropping off or picking up your children from school.

The new University of Utah South Jordan Health Center, as well as the Mid-Jordan TRAXstop are located at South Station. From here you can quickly gain access to downtown Salt Lake.

Oquirrh Lake is at the heart of Daybreak and provides beautiful scenery to the nearby homes. Daybreak residents get exclusive access to rowboats, sailboats, and kayaks at no charge. The lake has also been stocked with various species of fish including trout, catfish, bluegill, and large mouth bass.

Soda Row is centrally located in Daybreak and houses many shops and local events.
