The Sam Epstein House is a historic house at 488 Lakeshore Drive in Lake Village, Arkansas. The Colonial Revival house is notable for its association with Sam Epstein, a Jewish immigrant who was one of Lake Village's first shopkeepers, and eventually amassed more than 10,000 acres (4,000 ha) of land in Chicot County devoted to agricultural purposes. He was active in the civic and economic life of the community, supporting others (most notably H. L. Hunt) in the development of business opportunities.

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.
