Home of Freeman Walker, outstanding citizen of early Georgia. Born in Virginia in 1780, he came to Richmond County in his youth and studied law.

He reserved one acre as a family burial ground, known as the Walker Cemetery. He was the father of Maj. Gen. W. H. T. Walker, CSA. Admitted to the bar in 1802, he followed a life of public service; City Attorney for three years and Mayor of Augusta 1817-19, being the first to hold the city´s chief executive office under the name of Mayor, and Brigade Inspector of Gen. Valentine Walker´s brigade in 1813. He represented Richmond County in both branches of the State Legislature and represented Georgia in the U. S. Senate. His speech on the Missouri Compromise attracted nation-wide attention.

He died in 1827 and is buried in the Walker Cemetery.

3/5 Okay

"we had an issue with housekeeping on the 2nd and 3rd day of our stay when she took all towels and did not replenish and left the trash cans on the desk and counter, then another time i ran into her in the morning to find out what time she would be coming in to clean, she stated around 4pm but she never cleaned it. I addressed it with front desk and manager and was assigned a new housekeeper who did a wonderful job from 4th-8th day of our stay."

5/5 Excellent

"This place makes you feel like you’re in your own home away from home. The Owner is very respectful and everything was truly amazing. If I ever need to stay up in Augusta again I will be booking this place again. Thank you for the lovely stay!"

2/5 Poor

"I was disappointed that the property did not include thoughtful touches such as tissues, sugar, creamer, or throw blankets, We had also asked for an instruction or welcome book, The furniture throughout the home was quite uncomfortable, which made it difficult to relax. In addition, the listing did not clearly disclose that there is a second rental unit located approximately 40 feet from the back entrance of the main house.The television setup also requires guests to use their personal streaming logins, with only limited apps available."
