Hope Girl Scout Little House

The Hope Girl Scout Little House is a historic log house near the junction of Jones Street and Fair Park in Hope, Arkansas. It is a single-story log structure, built in 1938 with funding from the Works Progress Administration. It was designed by Washington, DC architect Donn Barber as a demonstration home for a family with modest income, and afterward served for a quarter century as the principal meeting place of the local Girl Scout organization.

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2015.
