Built in 1939 in Grand County, this comfort station exemplifies the National Park Service rustic architectural style that characterized public facilities in America's parks during the Depression era. Designated as Timber Creek Campground Comfort Station No. 245, the structure reflects the NPS philosophy of designing functional buildings that harmonize with their natural surroundings through the use of local materials and restrained ornamentation. Its listing on the National Register of Historic Places recognizes both its architectural significance and its role in the development of recreational infrastructure in the American West during the mid-twentieth century.
