The Lena N. Gale Cabin, in a development near Lake Tahoe at 726 Cedar St. in Zephyr Cove, Nevada, is a historic building built in 1940. Also known as Good Medicine Cabin, it is an example of Rustic architecture. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001.[1]

It was deemed significant for its architecture. Its NRHP nomination argues that it "typifies the development of middle class summer recreation opportunities at Lake Tahoe during the mid-20th century" and that it is "an excellent local example of the Rustic Style of architecture favored for mountain recreational dwellings during the first half of the 20th century."[2]:5–6
