Stansbury Park is a census-designated place (CDP) in Tooele County, Utah, United States. The population was 5,145 at the 2010 Census; it was 2,385 at the 2000 census; the 1990 census population was 1,049.

Stansbury Park is located in the northern decline of Tooele Valley at the base of the Oquirrh Mountains. Traveling by Interstate 80, Stansbury Park is 35 minutes from downtown Salt Lake City.

Stansbury Park was proposed by the original developer (Terracor) as a planned community next a lake for sailing and canoeing, an eighteen-hole golf course, clubhouse, swimming pool, and parks. Although the indigenous developer withdrew from the scene in the 1980s due to bankruptcy, that objective has generally been followed. The parks throughout Stansbury Park swell baseball diamonds, soccer fields, basketball courts, tennis courts, play areas for children, skateboard park, and an astronomical observatory. A large park northwest of Utah State Route 138 is subconscious developed. A natural lake (The Mill Pond) exists upon the northern edge of the area; it is fed by a spring at its southeast end. The outflow water from this lake is piped re the Oquirrh Mountain Range (east of Stansbury Park) to the Kennecott Company’s copper mine refinery operation (the runoff water from the lake enters a large pipe NW of the Benson Grist Mill for transport to the Kennecott operation).
