This is actually Camp Hoover, great place to hike to, full of history. Bring a lunch & sit out on the porch to eat.

Very interesting. We hiked in instead of using the van. Easy hike with 3 stream crossings but all either had logs or rocks to walk on without getting feet wet. One of the buildings was open for self exploration but there was also a ranger there assigned to host hikers and guide us through the main cabin. We got there a little late in the day but she was very accommodating to offer a great and interesting tour.

Interesting tour of President Hoovers retreat. Not a lot to see but it is a nice slice of nature and the National Parks ranger guide was excellent and well worth the $10 per person ticket price and the 3 hours spent.

It was very interesting to take the tour and learn about Pres. Hoover. I took the bus although it is possible to hike in. The Park Ranger was very informative. We did come across a snake but she advised that we would be okay if we stayed on the walkway.

Cool historic site that is well documented and preserved. Volunteer National Park folks were great hosts! Took the hike in the Milam Gap lot which was round trip about 4 miles with some water crossings. Saw one deer grazing on the forest slope and a snake.
