F18T3 Camp Rapidan at Shenandoah National Park

Tour begins at 1 P.M. sharp from the Byrd Visitor Center flagpole. Visit Rapidan Camp, President Herbert Hoover's rustic vacation home and retreat. The camp features three original buildings including the President's Cabin, the Prime Minister's Cabin and the Creel.

 The President's Cabin, also known as the Brown House, has been restored to its 1929 appearance with original and period furniture. The Prime Minister's Cabin includes an exhibit on the life and times of Hoover’s presidency.

Our ranger-guided tour will include a seven mile van ride to and from the camp, time inside both the Brown House and the Prime Minister's Cabin, as well as time exploring the grounds and gardens within the Historic Landmark.

Moderate - walking up to a mile and standing for a few hours.

Dine on your own or bring your own lunch
