Planning Tips

    About Hocking Hills Youth Group Area

    Step back in time at this authentic 1930s Civilian Conservation Corps cabin, handcrafted by the young men of Company 505 using American Chestnut timber and locally quarried stone. Built during the Great Depression to house CCC administrative staff, this historic structure stands as a testament to the legacy of the 200 enrollees who transformed Hocking Hills while supporting their families back home.
