The Lincoln House Club is a historic building at 135 Bridge Street in the Osterville section of Barnstable, Massachusetts. The 2-3/4 story wood frame Shingle style structure was built in 1899 by the Lincoln Club of Boston, as part of a "fresh air" movement, and occupies a prominent site near the Grand Island Bridge. The building is distinctive for its tall yet low-angled gable roof with large brackets, within whose gables there are nearly two floors of usable space. The club used the building as a clubhouse and lodging facility until 1922, when it was sold and converted into a private residence.
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.
