The Hardaway Cottage is a 1933 Georgian style home that was built on the grounds of the historic Roosevelt Warm Springs campus as a vacation home by Mrs. Rebecca Hardaway.

This fascinating home retains its Art Deco cool vibe while allowing guests to enjoy the beauty of a private setting surrounded by the Georgia State Park system. The spectacular views can be a place to relax on the front porch, grill out back, or unwind with a good book. Spend time cooking, entertaining, or soaking up the amazing history of the area. Often you will spot deer, coyote, chimney swifts, or more.

The house has a living room with fireplace, dining room, eat-in kitchen, three bathrooms and four bedrooms. The main bedroom with a King size bed is on the main floor. The other three bedrooms are upstairs. There is a sun porch/solarium with the most beautiful windows that adjust for any amount of light or breeze. The beautiful open porch across the front of the home can accommodate up to fifty guests. The master suite and bathroom on the main level of the home is handicapped accessible. The main level of the home is ADA compliant with wheelchair access to the parking area front and side porches and all rooms on the first floor. The home sleeps 8/10 guests.

This home is unique in so many ways. The history begins with Rebecca Hardaway who represents the industrial revolution. Her husband had founded the Hardaway Construction Company. After Benjamin Hardaway died Rebecca sold original Coca Cola stock to realize her dream of investing in a dual purpose home in Warm Springs. She already knew and love the area, and in creating the Hardaway Cottage hoped to accommodate both vacationers and people seeking treatment at the newly founded treatment center. Some key features that Rebecca designed are the beautiful marble fireplace, the 1930s tile bathrooms on the second floor of the home, and the rope-pulled elevator. The elevator is available for viewing as part of a tour of the home, but is not for use by guests.

After the death of Rebecca the home was purchased by the Charles Glenn family. Ms. Glenn had disabling arthritis and Alexander Glenn had polio. Both benefited from the homes innovative design for the use by people with disabilities. Clearly, the family was taking advantage of the treatment available for Alex at the historic polio treatment center. During WWII Dr. Charles Glenn commuted between Warm Springs GA and Oak Ridge TN the secret city where the Atom bomb was developed. The house was home to three daughters in addition to the baby of the family Alex. During WWII the two oldest sisters resided in the home with their war babies so the house was full of life and hope during this time.



** The Hardaway has a security camera on the garage that makes activity in the back parking lot visible.

    The hosts seemed very available. I did not need them for anything. The house was amazing and the history of the house was extra. Ammenities were perfect even the Christmas tree and decorations. Lovely trip and will consider again!

    We visited to tour Callaway and The Biblical History Center and the house was an extra bonus. The homeowners offered a tour of the home. Staying in the home is like staying in a history museum! Well Done.

    While this majestic home sits with so much rich history one could be taken back in time to imagine the dinners with FDR and the laughter and fun times. Unfortunately this home is in need of some TLC. While these things didn’t keep us from enjoying our stay. Some basic repairs (replace broken window panes, mildew removal on porch furniture and outside of house)would only enhance the beauty of this home.

    We were in Warm Springs for a small family event, with family and friends coming into town from the Midwest and from the coast. The Hardaway Cottage was perfect for us!

    If you want to stay in a home that comes alive with history, this is a good bet. It's like staying in an antebellum home with modern amenities, such as wireless internet. Additionally, the porch views are quite relaxing, set against a rolling hill forest. The owners were very responsive and even gave us a private tour of the house, sharing its history with us.

    The pictures on website are not what the actual place looks like. The entire front porch is completely falling apart. The roof has green moss all over it, holes the size of animals in all the outside doors especially the sunroom. Glass broken or missing out of the windows. The pictures show a pristine home, but when you arrive it looks like a house used in a horror movie. The entire ceilings in the bathrooms are peeling away. I have pictures to prove that what is advertised is not what you get.

    What a treat it was to stay in this beautiful, historical home! It was a perfect location for our trip to Callaway Gardens and Pine Mountain.. We had a fully stocked kitchen that was a great asset for preparing our Thanksgiving meal. We hope to return!

    Beautiful property. Has a very historic feel with updates to make your stay comfortable. We loved that the town of warm springs was just down the hill but it felt secluded. We went to enjoy the fantasy of lights at Callaway gardens. Callaway gardens is about 25 minutes away. Nice scenic drive along the way.

    The owners were wonderful. The house is so interesting with a rich history. Loved the opportunity to spend time here. Kitchen well equipped. Good bedding and plenty of towels for a houseful. Easy location for access to warm springs. Only 20 minutes from callaway. Very quiet location. Loved it!!!

    Beautiful historic home. Hosts were very attentive and informative about the history of the house. Location was perfect. Close to town, but in the woods. Many original features (so remember it’s an older home). Loved sitting on the sun porch in the mornings and on the front porch in the evenings. Even saw a few deer. Plenty of room and comfortable beds.
