Built about 1885, it is one of a small number of 19th-century cemetery chapels in the state, and is the most modestly decorated of those, with vernacular Gothic Revival elements.

Saxtons River Road (Vermont Route 121) is downslope, separated by a wide band of forest, and the main entrance is on Pleasant Street, at its northern end.

The chapel is a modest 1-1/2 story wood frame structure, about 20.5 by 26.5 feet (6.2 m × 8.1 m) in size, with a gabled roof, vertical board-and-batten siding, and a 20th-century brick foundation.

The front faces east, and has a single-story hip-roof porch, with turned posts, and there is simple Stick style woodwork in the roof gable.

The front space houses the chapel, whose walls and ceiling are finished in varnished tongue-and-groove boards.
