In 1986, the station building was in excellent condition. It is a one-story wood-frame building on a concrete foundation, with gables, timbers, and stone steps. Decorative features include pine tree-shaped cutouts in shutters and pine tree designs centered in each gable end.[2][3]:24

It currently serves as the Colliding Rivers Visitor Center.[citation needed]
