Rapidan Camp - Five Tents Chimney

A long wood-sided structure with a large chimney just right of the gabled center.
"Five Tents" after its transformation. Note the chimney.

All that is left of "Five Tents" is this huge fireplace and chimney built by the Marines. Still, it's not difficult to imagine the rustic building that surrounded it and housed the many guests who came to Rapidan Camp. Many a cool evening was spent by this fireplace most likely accompanied by lively discussions.
