Taken from the nomination form, "The comfort station was built in 1935 and is located southwest of the lighthouse, across from and slightly below the road. It has stone exterior walls, a concrete interior finish and a metal standing seam gable roof. The structure measures fifteen feet by twenty-seven feet. There are entrances at the south and north ends and a supply and plumbing corridor entry on the east side. There are concrete lintels and stone window sills. The windows are metal sash and consist of 4 light hoppers on the ends and a 3/3 fixed sash on the west side. There are round vents in the eaves. Concrete drains around the perimeter catch the roof runoff. The comfort station, Project F-P-618, was constructed by the Frank L. Stimson Construction Company at a cost of $3450 and used WPA funds. The roof is in need of replacement, but otherwise the structure is in good condition and has been well maintained."
