The Comfort Station #4 (building 72) is located in Rim Village in Crater Lake National Park. It was built to provide public showers and restrooms for park visitors. It is located on the southwest side of the Rim Village behind the main cafeteria and gift shop.〔Gilbert, Cathy A. and Gretchen A. Luxenburg, ("Historic Overview" ), ''The Rustic Landscape of Rim Village, 1927-1941'', National Park Service, Department of Interior, Seattle, Washington, 1990.〕〔Owens, Erica, ("Statement of Significance" ), ''Cultural Landscapes Inventory, Rim Village Historic District'', Crater Lake National Park, National Park Service, Pacific West Regional Office, Seattle, Washington, 2004.〕 The building is a one-story, wood-frame structure with native stones applied to the exterior to match the exterior of the nearby Rim Village cafeteria. Originally, an oil-burning water heater was used to heat shower water for park visitors. Today, the building remains an important part of the Rim Village landscape, despite minor alterations made to the structure when it was converted from a comfort station to an electrical transformer vault. Because it is now a utility building, it is no longer open to the public. Nevertheless, the structure retains its rustic appearance and contributes to the character of the Rim Village area.〔 Because of its unique rustic character, the building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988 as Comfort Station No. 72 (NRHP #88002625).〔("Rim Village Historic District" ), National Register of Historic Places, www.nationalregisterofhistoricalplaces.com, 12 March 2008.〕
