Gem of the island.Tons of pottery from a variety of local artists and priced modestly. They’ve carved out a cozy little corner of the forest and placed the pieces all around the property for a unique shopping experience. Purchased several pieces that we are delighted to start using!

Wonderful pottery shop with several generations of pottery makers. Friendly artists, a large selection of pieces and styles at reasonable pricing. Family treehouse is also fun to explore and it’s a nice drive out to the shop. Must do on the island.

There is a very good view and ceramics are on display in a cozy house, and it's a good place to stay for a while and you can buy the ceramics you like.Various kinds of flowers are planted, so it's good to take pictures and it's a must-visit place on the island.

Very cool place. Lots of amazing things to look at and buy.As art is subjective, so is pottery. They have something for everyone visually, lots of beautifully created pieces. However, they can be very expensive.It's worth a visit. Guarantee you will be surprised by what you find and the place is very cool.

Just shockingly beautiful work, in all styles/tastes. I was especially taken with Kimberly Hardy's work. Plus, there's a treehouse! Most of the pottery seems to live outside, but there is a smaller indoor space as well and some outbuildings, checkout is at a window on the side of the house.

Amazing works of art! Even if you don't plan on buying anything, this is a must stop on the island. The store/gallery is tucked away in the woods, and it feels like you're walking into another world, getting a sneak peak of the local life. All the artwork is displayed throughout the yard and store, and there's a nice view of the ocean from the backyard. Very friendly staff and prices were reasonable considering the time and effort out into each piece.

Beautiful pottery and has the best noodle bowls in western Washington.We bought four bowls a few years back and recently had one break but Sydney helped us get more ordered and was helpful through the mishap when they were made incorrectly and now we have not only a replacement bowl but ordered an extra four for all our noodle party needs.If you’re on Orcas make sure to stop by this gem of a shop!

Nice place but the pottery is dated and prohibitively expensive. Unless you’re loaded with cash to purchase their products, it’s more of a place to admire the gardens and leave. Would not recommend unless you’re in the area. Parking is limited and there are a lot of passive aggressive signs on the property. We get it, you hate tourists.

Beautiful products in a very serene setting. Definitely worth a visit. Pottery is on the expensive side but if you are used to Orcas prices, you won’t be surprised. But the quality of the locally manufactured wares will convince you!

Beautiful place. Definitely worth a visit. Their pottery is gorgeous, and the treehouse is a must-see. The venue is a perfect site for weddings. We bought some pottery and had it shipped home.

AMAZING!! Definitely worth the short side trip, even just to see the place. But you'll really want to consider a purchase too, once you see how unique and AWESOME their pottery pieces are!

This place is so cool. Hidden in the wood with an overlook of the water and mountains. Look like there is a treehouse and yurt. Guessing is available for Airbnb.Many cool items here. I would have bought so many things if I wasn't going on a bike. A group of us biked here and we all loved it. Carry a backpack if you are on a bike. Great place to find unique and cool gifts.

What a magical experience!! I’m a beginner potter and I was mind blown by the setting,history and little community here. High quality pottery isn’t easy or cheap to make so I was surprised by their good prices. I can’t wait to come back ❤️

Worth a trip through the woods, even just to explore the grounds, with a wide selection of beautifully designed pottery. They will ship items purchased and ensure safe packing. A highlight of our trip with pieces that will make lasting memories.

What a place! This spot is a little out of the way but we loved everything about the place Pottery abounds in every nook of this garden...artistic and practical, all pieces made with care. The potters we met we're knowledgeable and shared stories of their work and of the pottery shop itself. Take home a work of art! Come to sit a spell and take in the beauty that surrounds you.

The work of 20 artists is presented in this beautiful garden setting overlooking the Salish sea. A hand-made tree house overlooks the gardens where tables full of ceramics are displayed outside. When we visited this July, two adventurous middle-aged hikers were enjoying the tree house and came down to marvel at the mosaic steps created by embedded pottery which led into the nearby showroom. Beautiful wood carvings decorate the home and the variety of artistic styles represented by the ceramics. Everywhere you look is a little bit of magic. I'm always happy to add a new piece of pottery to my collection every year I visit this idyllic spot.

We live in the islands and every summer we come to Orcas. And every visit includes a visit to Orcas Island Pottery. And every visit finds new treasures to bring home. This trip was no different.

Super cute place with great local ceramics. You gotta drive a couple minutes through the forest to find it and once you do it’s a lovely place to wander around.

We visit every year, and stay at Beach Haven nearby. This year was filled with beautiful pottery, and it sure was hard to choose. Highly recommend a visit, the grounds are gorgeous, the view spectacular and the potters are so talented.

Handmade and showcased in and around the property. Fun display cabin to explore, and a tree house for kids (and adults).

Go. It’s one of the most bucolic peaceful places I’ve ever visited. The gardens, gardeners, trees, views, and pottery are all lovely. Kids can play in the three story treehouse as parents take their time. Great dirt road to get there.
