The Chambers Park Log Cabin is a historic structure in Chambers Park, Federalsburg, Maryland. It is a single-story log structure with a gabled roof covered in original wooden shingles layered over with asphalt shingles. It has a stone chimney at one end, which replaced a brick one in 1993. The cabin was built in 1936 by a crew funded by the National Youth Administration, a New Deal jobs program. It is one of the few surviving New Deal constructions on Maryland's Eastern Shore.[2]
