About Hopkins Mountain Fireman's Cabin

Hopkins Mountain Fireman's Cabin is approximately 17 miles north of White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia. It sits at an elevation of 3,162 feet. Guests enjoy the area for its magnificent views, animal watching, hunting and historic background. The Hopkins Mountain Fireman’s Cabin and Fire Tower site were constructed by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) in 1935. Also on the property is a logging tramway, in use from about 1908 to the 1920s, and the Civil War Trail, used in 1863 for the rapid retreat of the 64th Virginia Battalion after the Battle of Droop Mountain. The fireman’s residence, measures 14 feet by 20 feet and has been virtually unaltered since construction.

Simple, quite and nice. Did not see sun for 21/2 days but still had great time. Relaxing
and felt good to warm bones by nice outdoor fire. Great piece of history in area and civil war battles'.

Forest Service did great job in restoring. Hopefully will make more trips to great state.

We had such a fantastic time at Hopkin's Fireman's Cabin! The view was absolutely breathtaking. The camp spot and the resources provided (firewood, toilet paper, parking pad, mini fridge) were so amazing!! The trek to the top would have been a challenge in bad weather, but we had no problems at all. We did not expect the amenities to be so clean, cozy and inviting. We enjoyed our time so much that we plan to make it an annual trip! There was not much hiking from the top of the mountain, but there was a lot of hiking at Blue Bend, which is just at the foot of the Hopkin's Mountain road.

We loved the cabin. The location and the view are amazing. We loved the seclusion, having an entire mountain top to ourselves.
