Douthat State Park (10/28/2013)

 Douthat State Park was developed using the Conservation Corps of the 1930s, and there are some great examples of their work left.  Our cabin was constructed from logs and had small detail items such as wood hinges that were crafted at that time.  Even outside there are a lot of remnants of those times long ago.  These steps hark back to those times.  They gave me the feeling of an ancient English Garden, a touch of class in the mountains of Virginia.

The hike on Sunday was magnificent.  We did a great hike, starting at the cabin over the ridge behind our cabin along the Mountain Top Trail.  The views were exquisite, the leaves were turning, and it gave us a nice view of the lake.

Traveled to Douthat State Park for some rest and relaxation.  This is a great place, with funky cabins, great hiking and just good clean fun.  The leaves were turning, it was absolutely great.
