Historic Rockwell House

The Rockwell House is available for events, weddings, or stays.

Immerse yourself in history and grandeur while visiting Milledgeville, Georgia's 19th century capital. The Rockwell House (c. 1838) is a recently restored 14-room Federal/Greek Revival house that was once home to a Georgia governor. Relax and entertain with a delightfully fresh interior design blended with breathtaking historic architectural features and antiques. Enjoy the peaceful sounds of the self-playing grand piano or take a quiet moment to explore the fenced 12-acre grounds and pond.

With 14 ft ceilings and 20x20 rooms, the scale of the Rockwell House is awe-inspiring. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, each room features historic hand-crafted architectural details. After being greeted by the show-stopping spiral staircase in the main foyer, you'll find ornate touches throughout the home including custom hewn wainscoting, hand-pulled plaster cornices, and marble fireplaces. Complementing the historically accurate restoration are modern amenities like 5 new bathrooms, a new luxury kitchen with Viking appliances, and all new heating, air, and electrical – the best way to experience a historic house! Individual guest rooms are also available if you do not want to rent the whole house.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and 5 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with 5 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine and a fireplace.
