Echols Farm is a historic home and farm located near Glasgow, Rockbridge County, Virginia. The original section dates to the 1850s, and was enlarged about 1914 to a two-story, vernacular frame dwelling with a hipped roof and wraparound porch. The property also includes the contributing tenant house (c. 1928), spring house (c. 1928), equipment shed (c. 1940), garage, and also includes the canal trace and the two extant locks #I3 and #I4 of the James River and Kanawha Canal.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998.
