Must see. 1st Presidential Library built next to where FDR was raised. The home is like a step back in time with all its original furnishings. His resting place is in the Rose Garden .

The ranger tour was outstanding. Dan was a great guy who really brought the importance of the president and the home to life and really made it a enjoyable experience .

House is interesting in its simplicity. Library Museum is a great look at the president and the times he and his wife lived in.

Such a great place to learn about FDR and his incredible wife. Such a beautiful house. The tour is wonderful. Don't go on a rainy day...

Keep your eyes out for the letter from Einstein. There’s a lot to read, so give yourself plenty of time. It’s well maintained and sparkling clean .

As I visited the home of Franklin D. Roosevelt I can't help to imagine what it was like when he lived there. I walked down a hallway where he had been. An interesting piece of our history.

I enjoyed the tour, and museum. The grounds are beautiful. I’d recommend bringing something to eat, because they have picnic tables on the property. Tour & museum will take approximately 3 hours - The Traveler

A great place to visit. Very well put together, the library is full of so much information of FDR's presidency. Everyone should visit the home and the library of one of the most beloved presidents - Liliana Repollet
