The Morrison Plantation Smokehouse is a historic plantation outbuilding in rural Hot Spring County, Arkansas. Located off County Road 15 near Saginaw, it is the last surviving remnant of a once-extensive plantation property. It is a hexagonal structure, built out of dry laid fieldstone, and capped with a hip roof that has a gabled venting cupola at the top. It was built about 1854, probably by slave labor, on the plantation of Daniel Morrison.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1977.[1]
