Swetland Homestead is a historic home located at Wyoming, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania. The original section was built in 1797, and subsequently expanded between 1803 and 1813. It is a 2 12-story, L-shaped frame structure measuring 54 feet 3 inches (16.54 m) by 88 feet 4 inches (26.92 m). A four-columned portico was added in 1850.

The Swetland Homestead is now a historic house museum that is open by appointment with the Luzerne County Historical Society.

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.
