The Creole House is a historic residence in the village of Prairie du Rocher, an old French settlement in present-day Randolph County, Illinois, United States.

[2]: 2  One of these is the Creole House, built around 1800,[3]: 2  which was constructed in the French Colonial style by an unknown English-speaking immigrant from the eastern United States.

[3]: 2 Although it was built by Americans,[4] the Creole House is a typical example of a French colonial style known as poteaux-sur-sol,[3]: 2  which is otherwise unknown in present-day Illinois.

[6] Such houses were constructed by erecting a palisade of logs on top of a stone foundation, rather than using horizontal beams or studs like more modern designs.

Because the shallow gabled roof extends past the western front of the house, it forms a large overhang that has been adapted into a long porch.

[3]: 2 In 1973, the Creole House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places; it was the fourth Randolph County property to gain this distinction.
