A fire has destroyed a cabin built 20 years ago as a recreation of the home where Revolutionary War figure George Rogers Clark spent his retirement years in southern Indiana.

Firefighters called Thursday evening to the Falls of the Ohio State Park found the building fully engulfed in flames, said Clarksville Fire Chief Brandon Skaggs. The cabin's roof collapsed and only a portion of the exterior remained standing once the fire was doused.

“We’re sad that we lost that cabin, but right now there’s no injuries reported, firefighters or civilians. So that’s the positive,” Skaggs told The Courier-Journal.

Several agencies are investigating the fire’s cause, including the Indiana State Fire Marshal’s Office.

Skaggs said the fire at the park's George Rogers Clark home site in Clarksville was reported along with three other brush fires, including one about 150 yards (137 meters) from the cabin.

The cabin, which overlooked the Ohio River just north of Louisville Kentucky was built in 2001 with the same dimensions as the home where Clark lived from 1803 to 1809, according to the park’s website. The original home was destroyed in 1854.

Clark was best known for his Revolutionary War role in leading American soldiers who defeated British forces in 1779 and captured Fort Sackville in Vincennes, located in southwestern Indiana along the Wabash River.

The site of Clark's home in present-day Clarksville has been known for nearly two centuries as “Clark’s Point.” It overlooks a sharp curve along the Ohio River and offers commanding views up and down the river.

The site is also where Clark’s younger brother, William, met Meriwether Lewis a year before they embarked in 1804 with a group of men to explore territory west to the Pacific Ocean
