The station was built by the Delaware and Hudson Railway in 1903, and is a long one-story, rectangular, wood-frame building with Late Victorian style design elements. It has a hipped roof with wide overhanging eaves and topped by a cupola with a pyramidal roof. The station remained in use until 1949–1950, and later used as a post office and tavern.[2]: 5  It is now a museum.
