The Corbin Cabin is a log structure built by George T. Corbin in 1909 in the Nicholson Hollow area of what is now Shenandoah National Park.[https://home.nps.gov/shen/learn/historyculture/displaced.htm The Displaced (U.S. National Park Service)]. Retrieved from the NPS website on 12 February 2008. Corbin was forced to vacate the land on which the cabin sits in 1938, when the land was added to Shenandoah National Park.[https://state.vipnet.org/dhr/registers/Counties/Madison/056-0061_Corbin_Cabin_1989_Final_Nomination.pdf Corbin Cabin 1989 Final Nomination] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110728161942/https://state.vipnet.org/dhr/registers/Counties/Madison/056-0061_Corbin_Cabin_1989_Final_Nomination.pdf |date=2011-07-28 }}. Retrieved from Virginia state website on 13 January 2008. The cabin is unique in that it is one of a small number of buildings located in Nicholson Hollow spared during the creation of the park, and still remains standing despite recent forest fires.

The cabin is maintained by the Potomac Appalachian Trail Club and is accessible within the park by means of Nicholson Hollow Trail.[http://www.hikingupward.com/SNP/CorbinMountain/ Corbin Mountain Hike]

As the George T. Corbin Cabin, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.
