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 privacy and 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. 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. In fact all areas of the home are ADA compliant. 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. Yes, that is right! and it has been restored to its original working condition.

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.
