Rapidan Camp - Then and Now: Finding your way around the Camp
in
Shenandoah

From this spot, you can plan your exploration of Rapidan Camp. Each building (existing and obliterated) is marked with a sign and most of them are on the main path. Be sure to explore the Prime Minister's cabin. When the caretakers are here you can view the exhibit inside, and year-round you can peruse the interpretive panels on the porch. The Brown House, which is historically refurnished to the Hoover era is also a must-do during the summer and fall when the camp is staffed. If you're up for a walk, follow the trail up to the site of Five Tents and/or take the President's Walk, a beautiful stroll along the creek to the sluice built to divert the natural Laurel Prong to feed the Marine-built Hemlock Run.
