Harlem Plantation House is located on Louisiana Highway 39 between Davant and Phoenix, Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana, on the east bank of the Mississippi River about 5 miles (8.0 km) upriver from Pointe à la Hache, Louisiana. It was built around 1840 and added to the National Register of Historic Places on October 26, 1982. It is a raised Creole-American plantation house.

It was substantially renovated around 1910.[2]
Like much of the area, the house was damaged by severe flooding when the levees were over-topped during Hurricane Katrina in 2005.
