The Wesley Copeland House is a historic house in rural western Stone County, Arkansas. Located on the north side of a rural road south of Timbo, it is single-story dogtrot log house, finished in weatherboard and topped by a gable roof that overhangs the front porch. The porch is supported by chamfered square posts, and there is a decorative sawtooth element at its cornice. There are two chimneys, one a hewn stone structure at the western end, and a cut stone structure at the eastern end. Built c. 1858, it is a rare antebellum house in the county, and a well-preserved example of traditional architecture.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]
