Cumberland State Forest, State forest in Cumberland County, United States.
Cumberland State Forest spans 16,169 acres across Cumberland and Buckingham counties, featuring pine forests, hardwood trees, and multiple waterways including the Willis River.
The forest was established in 1939 through the Bankhead-Jones Farm Tenant Act, transforming former agricultural land into a protected natural resource area.
The Trenton House, constructed in 1815 by Dr. John Trent, serves as the forest office and stands as a registered Virginia Department of Historic Resources site.
Visitors can access four small lakes named Bonbrook, Arrowhead, Winston, and Oak Hill for non-motorized boating activities and fishing under state regulations.
The forest contains a family cemetery with Charles Irving Thornton's grave, marked by an inscription from Charles Dickens and listed on the National Register.
