Dale's Right is a historic home located near Cambridge, Dorchester County, Maryland, United States. It is one of the few houses which falls under the strict definition of a telescope house, where each section is narrower and shorter than the previous one. Each of the three sections appears to date from the first third of the 19th century, about 1830 to 1840, and they are two, one and a half, and one stories, respectively.[2]

Dale's Right was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.[1]
