Ranger's Office - The Ranger's Office is a one and one-half story frame and limestone building constructed in 1936. The building reflects the Colonial Revival style in its overall plan and design. The building has a poured concrete foundation, gable roof of asphalt shingles, and central interior stone chimney. On the main facade is a one-story gable roof projecting bay which contains the primary entrance. This entrance has a ca. 1970 three-light glass and wood door as does the secondary entrance on the west facade. Added concrete steps and a metal railing lead to the main entrance. Windows are original eightover-eight wood sash design with wood lintels and concrete sills. Original wood lintels are also located over the primary and secondary entrances. A concrete walkway connects the office to the Ranger's dwelling.
