Hopeville Pond, a former woolen mill pond, was recognized for its recreational potential in 1930 by the Federal Government. The Government purchased a considerable amount of acreage which was managed by the Civilian Conservation Corps (C.C.C) until purchased by the State in 1959. The fine work of the C.C.C. is still evident in the pine plantations, forest roads and fire control ponds. The park is also noted for its glacial geologic features.
