About White Rock Mountain Recreation Area

Experience nature and adventure at historic White Rock Mountain! This National Forest Recreation Area features three unique and rustic natural stone cabins and a large natural stone lodge built in the 1930s by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC). Each features a stone fireplace new, antique, and original wood furniture handcrafted by the CCC. Wind, rain and natural elements had caused the deterioration of the buildings over the years. In 1987 a volunteer group, Friends of White Rock, began a project to renovate the historic structures. With a lot of commitment and hard work, the lodge and cabins were restored to their original state in 1991. White Rock Mountain also offers nine primitive family camping sites. These easily accessible shaded campsites include tents pads, fire rings, grills, picnic tables and access to restrooms and water. Small RVs or pop-up campers can be accommodated at a few sites.

Loved the lodge. It was nice to have everyone together in one place. The only down fall was the lay out of the two bedrooms. It is a little awkward walking through someone's room to get to the Livingroom. The location and views were amazing. The staff is great and easy to work with during the stay.

This is a fantastic campground. The cabin was wonderful, with fantastic views and the hosts went above and beyond to ensure our stay was enjoyable. From Amber calling us in advance to warn us of the ice covered roads due to a recent storm, to Sue's helpful tips and hospitality, we enjoyed every minute of our stay and will definitely be back. We enjoyed the cold weather with a warm fire in the cabin, and hiking the trails with snow and ice on the ground added an element to the trip that was unexpectedly nice.
