The Potholes Recreation Site
Reviewed Jun. 16, 2023

Beautiful stay down the road

June 2023. Road easy to access right off of rt 50. Came down from Grand Junction and it was an easy ride. The dirt road was easy for our 2wd Toyota. The Potholes area had the cleanest vault toilet and well maintained sites. It seems busier than we wanted so we drove further down the road about 1 mile and many more sites on both sides of the road. We pulled to the right and there was a spot for bigger campers and about 10 sites with 2 more across the street between the canyon walls. Couldn't get down to river as most of the river front area is private property. Even at potholes you would need to scrabble down the walls toget to waters edge. What the spot to ourselves for a Friday-Sunday. Bring tons of water as there is no water access. We didn't explore further down the road, but on the map there is a trail head further down. See pics of the road and our sites and enjoy!!
