Step back in time and experience the authentic charm of this adorable early 1900's mining cabin. Nestled in a tranquil setting at the base of majestic book cliff mountains, named after Kenilworth Castle by British miners, Kenilworth is considered an "occupied ghost town", still sporting a population of about 180 people. In its coal mining heydays in 1947, Kenilworth reached its peak population of 1,050.
