The Crowley's Ridge State Park Dining Hall is a historic recreational facility in Crowley's Ridge State Park, located in Greene County, Arkansas. Located in the employee area of the park, it is a single-story log structure, built on a fieldstone foundation, and is covered with a gable roof. It was intended to serve as a kitchen and dining venue serving both park visitors and staff. It was built c. 1935 by a crew from the Civilian Conservation Corps, and is an excellent local example of the Rustic style architecture popularized by the CCC.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.[1]
