Located in Benewah County, this picnic shelter and cloakroom exemplifies the National Park Service rustic architectural style, a design tradition emphasizing harmonious integration with natural landscapes through the use of local materials and forms sympathetic to their surroundings. Originally developed as part of the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) programs of the 1930s, the structure serves the Plummer Point area as a facility for day-use recreation, supporting both picnic and hiking activities. Its listing on the National Register of Historic Places recognizes its significance as a representative example of Depression-era public works architecture and the CCC's legacy in American park development.
