Joaquin Miller Cabin, Rustic log cabin in Rock Creek Park, United States.
The L-shaped structure features split logs with chinking and a steeply pitched cross-gabled roof covered by shingles in a natural setting.
The cabin was relocated from its original location near Meridian Hill Park to Rock Creek Park in 1911 through the efforts of California senators.
From 1973 to 2011, the cabin hosted a poetry reading series, which later continued at the Rock Creek Nature Center as the Joaquin Miller Poetry Series.
The cabin stands as a historical site within Rock Creek Park, accessible to visitors exploring the 1,700-acre natural area in Washington, D.C.
Poet Joaquin Miller's niece, Pherne Miller, operated the cabin as a refreshment stand and art classroom from 1931 until the mid-1950s.
