About Sagamore Hill National Historic Site

Sagamore Hill was Theodore Roosevelt's home from 1885 until his death in 1919, and it served as the Summer White House during his presidency. The shingle-style house is seen on guided tours by advance reservation, and almost all of the furnishings are original. The grounds are free to walk, and the Old Orchard building on the property houses the Theodore Roosevelt Museum and its exhibitions.
