Camp Pine Knot

Camp Pine Knot, also known as Huntington Memorial Camp, is a Great Camp on Raquette Lake in the Adirondack Mountains of New York.

Camp Pine Knot, also known as Huntington Memorial Camp, is a Great Camp on Raquette Lake in the Adirondack Mountains of New York, built in 1877 by William West Durant as the first of the Adirondack Great Camps and a defining example of the style. The complex is built up of roughly two dozen separated structures in log and native stonework with rustic decorative details of branches and twigs, including a seven room Swiss Cottage, four log cottages, a Glass Dining Room, a horse barn and a floating four room bark cabin called the Barque. Developed originally by Thomas C. Durant to showcase investment opportunities in the region, the camp was sold to railroad magnate Collis P. Huntington in 1895. After years of disuse it was acquired in 1947 by the State University of New York at Cortland, which still operates it as an outdoor education center, and the camp was designated a National Historic Landmark in 2004.
