The Kennicott Cabin is a log house located at 63161 State Highway 69, north of Westcliffe, Colorado. The cabin was constructed in 1869 by Frank Kennicott, one of the first settlers in the Wet Mountain Valley. The cabin's design reflects cabin construction methods popular in the Eastern United States rather than common Western designs, possibly because Kennicott was from Illinois. In addition, the cabin is an unusual example of a two-story log cabin.^[2]

The cabin was added to the National Register of Historic Places on February 14, 1997.^[1]
