Yup. (Scroll down.) It was called "The Little White House." (I don't know if the springs are actually on the property, but my guess is yes.) My Mom and two sisters toured it in the 1950s. Someone's holding the camera -- so maybe my Dad, too.

As a child, I *hated* stops like this but did a lot of them just the same. There's absolutely nothing of interest for kids. My oldest sister (shown) didn't know who FDR was. She was born after the war. He was long gone.

...Franklin D Roosevelt was president and he liked to go to warm springs ga for the mineral water (naturally heated) He would soak in it for hours. The place fell into disrepair and the cost to fix it up was a couple hundred thousand bucks. Congress Balked.
