Prince William Forest Park
Group Cabin Camping
 

Prince William Forest Park administers five cabin camps. Four of the five cabin camps are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.  Each camp is composed of groups of small, historical wooden structures built by the Civilian Conservation Corps during the 1930s. To see information specific to each group camp, click on the camp websites below.

Facilities
Each group cabin camp has a central dining hall with a commercial size oven and refrigerator, spacious counter and a large area for dining. All cabins and dormitories are equipped with single cots and mattresses. Facilities for hot showers and flush toilets are located centrally in each camp. The camps do not have air conditioning, though Cabin Camp 5 is heated during the winter. Mops, brooms and toilet tissue are provided. Campers must bring their own bedding, cookware, cleaning supplies, tableware, trash bags, soap and first aid supplies.

Season
Please note: Cabin Camps 1- 4 close during the winter season, as none of the cabins are heated. Cabin Camp 5 (Camp Happyland) is heated, and is therefore open year-round.
