Best Time to Camp at Potawatomi State Park

Fall visitors should pack layers—October brings crisp, chilly air that's perfect for cozy campfires but requires warm sleeping bags. The campground operates through October, though some campers wish the season extended longer to enjoy more of this beautiful setting. If you're planning a late-season visit, be aware that heating systems and hot water may be limited as the park prepares for winter closure, so come prepared for cooler conditions.
