Kenneth L. Howard House, also known as the Women's Club of Dunn, is a historic home located near Dunn, Harnett County, North Carolina. It was built in 1908–1909, and is a 2+12-story, three-bay, Colonial Revival style frame mansion. It has a high hipped roof crowned by a mock widow's walk and features a two-story free Ionic order portico and one-story wraparound porch. The house is a copy of the North Carolina Building at the Jamestown Exposition of 1907. In 1953 it was acquired as the headquarters of the Woman's Club.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1]
