Hovander Homestead Park

Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, Hovander Homestead Park is a striking example of carefully preserved history. The turn-of-the-century farmhouse, big red barn, outbuildings and two-mile-long riverbank evoke a simpler time from Whatcom County's past.

The 1903 house was the home of Hokan Hovander, a Swedish architect who brought his family to Whatcom County in 1896. Visitors have access to the various farm buildings, and can enjoy displays of antique farm implements and equipment. Picnic sites with tables, barbecues and a covered cooking shelter are available.

There are many Historic Buildings preserved in all regions of Washington.
