Description

Potato Creek is in north-central Indiana about 12 miles southwest of South Bend. The park features a wide array of activities and facilities for year-round enjoyment. Making reservations is advisable to enjoy some of this popular park's facilities.

A variety of natural habitats await, including the 327-acre Worster Lake, old fields, mature woodlands, restored prairies, and diverse wetlands. Each offers unique opportunities for plant and wildlife observation.

Native peoples used the area for hunting and fishing. The area’s first people of European descent settled here in the 1830s.

A new lodge for Potato Creek State Park

The 120-room lodge and conference center - Indiana State Parks' first facility constructed from the ground up since 1939 - will sit on Worster Lake’s southern shore, in the Whispering Winds Picnic Area. This large area, not far from the park entrance but away from the main road, provides a beautiful view of Worster Lake, access to the paved bike trail and a small boat launch, room for parking and plenty of space to relax in the outdoors. Opening is targeted for 2026 or 2027.
