About this campground

Cabin Camp 1 was the first camp in the park completed by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) in the 1930's. It sleeps 205 visitors. Its dining hall and craft lodges are some of the best examples of rustic architecture in the park. Stone foundations, fireplaces and whole log supports showcase the beautiful native materials used by the CCC. The sleeping cabins in this camp host 2 to 10 campers per unit and are newer construction (circa 1980s). Some cabins in the D unit are semi wheelchair accessible.

From West:  Travel east on State Highway 234 Dumfries Road to approach the park. Turn right on Pleasant Road. On Pleasant Road, bear left at the bend in the road.
