Grant Cottage State Historic Site, Presidential historic site on Mount McGregor, Wilton, United States.

The cottage retains its original 1885 furnishings, including the bed where President Grant died and preserved floral arrangements from his funeral.

Ulysses S. Grant completed his presidential memoirs at this location in 1885 while battling throat cancer, securing financial stability for his family.

The Grant Remembrance Day in July features presentations, ceremonies, and educational programs about the life of the 18th United States President.

Guided tours of the cottage operate every 30 minutes from April through October, with adult admission at $12 and senior tickets at $9.

A parlor clock in the cottage remains stopped at 8:08 AM, marking the exact moment of President Grant's death on July 23, 1885.
