The visitor center is a Ranch-style building that is one story in height with a broad rectilinear footprint, board and batten siding above an artificial stone veneer base, and a side-gabled roof with exposed rafter tails and decorative knee braces. A central cross gable on the south elevation denotes the main entrance.
