    I had a wonderful experience with 2 friends here the other day. We rode our motorcycles through Pine Mountain, and we saw the little white house on the way, so we turned around to check it out. I'm so glad we did ! It was a fantastic museum and a great time piece of history. I would recommend anyone in the area to stop by with their friends or family !

    It was surprisingly more than expected. Entering the museum offers a look back in time, with rich history and context into the nation's longest serving president. The grounds are well manicured and each cottage further elvoves the FDR story and life. Enjoy with family generations of all ages - it's sure to entertain, educate, intrigue and amaze. See if you can find the marine sentry posts - that must have been an interesting job.

    One of the nicer state parks that I’ve traveled to over the last year. Every single staff member was completely unbelievable, in the amount of knowledge that they knew. Parking was incredibly plentiful and we arrived about 30 minutes after opening with not a single person in the parking lot. The staff for check in with Excellence. The walking tour cost $20 in last about an hour and a half. We did not do this walking tour. The flags of the states are fantastic if you’re a rock nerve. I really did enjoy it. The staff needs to be uploaded for how amazing they were. No complaints would definitely go back. Learned more about the president in one hour than I ever did in school.

    Very good experience. We was driving back home and decided to stop here for a break from driving. Everything was so clean and kept up well. It was very educational and all the employees were very attentive and welcoming. We was able to watch about a 15 minute film as well. My favorite walkthrough was the different houses and how they were kept from that time era. I also enjoyed seeing the vehicles and reading up on the chaplains that served in the military and their stories. I would bring my children back to have a walkthrough one day. There is also a historic pool museum that had a lot of meaning. It was a short drive from the Little White House Museum. Overall, it was a very nice experience and a great place to stop for a break after a long drive.

    This is such a neat piece of presidential history. The area is nice to visit and the surrounding area is nice. The museum and home are well kept. The accessibility is there for those with mobility issues and those who are deaf or HOH. The only complaint I have is that you have to pay for babies to attend. But it's worthwhile and has lots of neat history. The park rangers were very nice.

    While staying at F D Roosevelt State Park we so enjoyed this trip through time. Admittedly, neither of us are very good at history but we learned so much about FDR and his imprint on this world. From the kind and knowledge rangers who spoke with pride of the heritage their small town of White Springs played with the larger than life FDR to the heart wrenching video to the informative memorabilia and signage, we loved it all. What a well preserved jewel and filled with employees that take pride in it.

    This was an awesome tour and well maintained historic site. You get to walk through FDR's Little White House and see where he died and lived when he was away from the White House. There is also access to the staff quarters and you can walk along a side walk which displays all the state rocks and flags. Staff I encountered along the way went over the history of the site and pointed out items along the way that would be of interest. The museum houses several of FDR's cars, canes, household and presidential items, etc. The site is handicap accessible and they have electric scooters and wheel chairs onsite. Service Dogs are permitted entry, but they do ask you the purpose for their support and oral verification they have been trained by service dog agency or trainer. If you're a vet you'll need your VA card to get a veteran's discounted entry. There is a gift shop up front. If you love Tilley's Enduro hats you will find them here for sale.

    Nice Sunday afternoon destination! Very interesting film and museum and guides at the Little White House reveal so many accomplishments of Franklin D. Roosevelt for which he really should get more credit! A true enabler and forward thinker to give Americans the opportunity to achieve the American Dream. Don't miss taking your children and visitors.

    History people will really enjoy this. I am not a huge history person, but this place was very interesting. They have guided tours, but we did not do one of those. We wanted to be able to take our time and look at things in our own time. They did have guides around and through the museums and the house itself for those that have questions.

    Absolutely wonderful place to visit for some wonderful history. The staff is Absolutely fantastic and courteous. Great gift shop and learning experience, I've lived local for 38 years and visited often, our daughter and son in law visited from TN and we took them and had a marvelous time as I've always had through out many visits. We all can't wait for our next visit 😍

    I can't tell you how wonderfully informative and moving this place is, as you should truly experience it for yourself. Such an incredible experience, the museum is loaded with memorabilia!

    The staff there was awesome and gave us some interesting information about the Little White House. The film in the museum was very good. I recommend buying the combo pass if you're going and think you might visit another park within a year.

    First thing: I do think this was a little pricey. That being said, I loved going here! It had a lot of artifacts, the rangers were well informed and friendly, and it provided us a nice distraction while they finished up our cabin. We were told that the whole place would take us an hour and half, but with a 7 month old and the fact that we actually were excited to learn more about FDR, it took us more like 3 hours and that’s without heading down to the pools. Highly recommend! Also stop by his grilling spot, it’s an amazing view!
