Limberlost Cabin is a historic home located in Geneva, Adams County, Indiana. It was built in 1895 and is a two-story, Wisconsin white cedar log dwelling containing 14 rooms. The second story is sheathed in redwood shingles. The front facade features a one-story wraparound porch with log pillars. It was built by noted author Gene Stratton-Porter (1863-1924). She moved from this home to the Gene Stratton Porter Cabin at Wildflower Woods in Rome City, Indiana in 1914. It is operated as a historic house museum and known as Limberlost State Historic Site.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.
