Indiana Dunes National Park Lodging
Step back. Stay Present.
The Cypress Log Cabin is a remarkable and significant piece of American architectural history. Originally constructed for the 1933 Chicago World’s Fair, this unique home was later relocated to Indiana Dunes National Park, where it has remained a lasting symbol of early 20th-century innovation and design. The cabin reflects the creative spirit and craftsmanship of its era, making it not just a place to stay, but a piece of living history that continues to inspire visitors and architecture enthusiasts alike.
IN The Dunes Lodging is proud to partner with Indiana Landmarks to help preserve and celebrate the iconic Cypress Log Cabin. Until now, this historic home was only available to the public during occasional guided tours offered by the National Park. Through this new collaboration, guests will now have the rare opportunity to experience the cabin firsthand with overnight stays. As one of the renowned “Century of Progress” homes and the only structured lodging available inside Indiana Dunes National Park, this property offers a one-of-a-kind experience for travelers seeking history, nature, and architectural charm in one unforgettable stay.
