Grant Cottage at Mount McGregor, New York
On Mount McGregor, a few miles north of Saratoga Springs, NY, an
important piece of American history has survived intact. In this house in
June and July of 1885, General Grant fought the
pain and weakness of throat cancer as he raced to
complete his memoirs and provide financial security for his family. The
furnishings, decoration and personal effects remain just as they were in
1885. The cottage is owned by New York State, and the tours and
programming are provided by the Friends of Grant Cottage.
Please consider becoming a member of the Friends and help us keep
open this memorable and fascinating site. Please write or call for
