The Crowley's Ridge State Park Comfort Station is a historic visitor facility at Crowley's Ridge State Park, in Greene County, Arkansas. Located in the campground section of the park, it is a single-story log structure with a gable roof, in which are latrine facilities. It was built c. 1933 by a crew of the Civilian Conservation Corps, and is a well-preserved example of the Rustic style architecture the CCC popularized.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.[1]
