Most museums create a distance between the visitor and the exhibits, but The Little White House defies that generalization. Seeing the small house and environs where one of our greatest presidents found peace and solace, and which inspired him to create the New Deal, is worth the drive from Atlanta (or surrounding states). After visiting the tiny house and the... More

A charming cottage where FDR relaxed away from the Oval Office. It really gives some insight into him, for it is not fancy like you would expect for a Roosevelt. More

A great tribute to FDR..You can see why the president visited the area 41 times. Not only for the medical treatment in the warm waters of the pool but for the people of the depression he grew to love. Very well appointed and very well kept. For American history buffs, this is a must! More

We thoroughly enjoyed the historic Little White House and interpretive museum. I now have a much better understanding of the personal side of FDR and his amazing role in shepherding our country through the Great Depression. The simple but inviting interiors of the house and outbuildings are especially effective in depicting the humility and gentleness of FDR as both individual... More

I really enjoyed visiting this attraction. It's nicely done - the museum as well as the house and the servant's and guest houses. I great look at how simply they lived compared to today. It's beautifully maintained. It's also a beautiful drive to get to it. Another website listed this attraction as having free admission which it did not -... More

This is truly a nice historical treasure. Touring the Little White House was educational and entertaining as well. The guides were very knowledgable and friendly. The house is small but the added features of the museum made this tour a nice gem. More

We went on a Monday so there were hardly any other people there. The workers were very knowledgeable. Everything was very clean. It was very educational and moving to be in a location where a U.S. President died. I learned more about FDR at this site than I did in all of my history classes in school. I wish the... More
