The D. McDonald House is a historic house at 800 South Broadway in Smackover, Arkansas. The two-story brick house was built in 1928-29 by DeKalb McDonald, during the oil boom that hit Union County in the 1920s. It is one of the more unusual houses in the town, exhibiting Craftsman styling with a Mediterranean flair. The house has irregular massing, with a main block and a number of projecting porches and ells. The main block and projections generally have hipped roofs finished in red tile with significant overhangs. The western elevation includes a porte cochere. Significant original period detailing remains on the interior of the house, despite the application of paneling to the walls.^[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.^[1]
