Rumbaugh House

The Rumbaugh House refers to the atmospheric ruins of a historic farmstead tucked deep within the forest interior. These remnants serve as a window into the 19th-century agricultural history of the region, before much of the land was incorporated into the National Forest. Visitors can find the stone foundations and chimney stacks of the original home, now partially reclaimed by the forest. The site is a favorite for hikers and history buffs who enjoy searching for the "hidden history" of the plateau, where old orchards and cellar holes still tell the story of the families who once carved a living from the rocky soil.
