About Lincoln Homestead State Park

120 acres hold a mix of original buildings and reconstructions tied to Thomas Lincoln, the father of President Abraham Lincoln. The grounds preserve structures connected to the family's presence in the area rather than focusing on the president himself. Visitors can view both period-original and rebuilt elements associated with that homestead history, giving a physical sense of the setting where Lincoln's father once lived.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
