The camp ground was clean and welcoming, restrooms were, as always clean, well stocked and no flies, which is a plus, the only down side to the campgrounds, is that there is no drinking water available. Potter's is one of my favorite places to visit.

My wife and I really enjoy our annual trip to Potter's Ponds. The fishing is always good. Usually pretty quiet and not overcrowded.
You do need to pack plenty of water as well as plan on packing out your trash. No dumpsters. Also, the muskrats have a pretty solid presence in both ponds. Don't let your dogs drink the lake water or you could end up treating them for jardia.
It's a beautiful place to go. The roads are usually in pretty good shape. We go every year.

I drove in late evening. I never saw a sign directing me where to go. The GPS took me to some roads that I wasn't really sure of but I made it. A suggestion would be to put a small solar powered light on the campsite number signs. I enjoyed the gazillion stars very much!!! The park is quiet, which is what I needed after a long flight and drive earlier in the day. I would highly recommend Potter Pond Campsite if you want to get away from the crowds and enjoy nature!!!

Nice camping spot. Far enough away from main road so the dust was at a minimum.

We stayed at Potters Ponds campsite 15 for 2 nights near the middle of July. There's generous space between the campsites. The ponds are a great spot for fishing and canoeing. There's plenty of wildlife. Deer walk through camp each night. There were ducks and geese with their young on the ponds. This year we spotted ghost shrimp near the shore of the east pond. In the past we've also seen wild turkeys nearby. Campsite 15 had more dust than the other sites we've stayed at. Bring your own water. Bring mosquito repellent. This year the mosquitos were only a nuisance during some parts of the day. Some years we've been here there have been sheep and sheepdogs in the canyon. The sheep aren't a problem, but the sheepdogs can be a bit overprotective if you plan to hike up the canyon. The vault toilets were in good condition. A huge set of power lines run through the campsite. Depending on which site you stay in, you may hear crackling from the power lines almost as loud as the nearby river! There are several geocaches nearby . This is a nice quiet, shady spot.
