The Potters Lake Protection and Rehabilitation District (PLPRD) was formed in 1976. For nearly 50 years, the PLPRD has worked to maintain, protect, and improve the quality of Potter Lake. All riparian (lakefront) owners on Potter Lake are part of the district. As riparian owners, we each have a responsibility to care for Potter Lake.

*Updated Information on Blue-green Algae Blooms

*This article was originally posted in September of 2025. However, there have been numerous reports of algal blooms in Walworth County Lakes recently. There have also been a number of posts on social media with opinions on the causes for these blooms. You will want to check reputable and reliable sources for information. One good source is the PLPRD website, where information is researched and fact-checked before publication. Other great options are the WI-DPI website and the Walworth County website. The PLPRD does not have a Facebook page and is not affiliated with any social media groups.
