Little White House is a historic landmark located in Key West, Florida, with a rich history dating back to the early 20th century. Originally built in 1890 as the naval station's command headquarters, it was later converted into a vacation home for the US Presidents in the 20th century. The most notable among them was President Harry S. Truman, who visited the house for 175 days during his presidency.

The Little White House has undergone several renovations over the years, but its original architecture and design have been preserved. The interior of the house features exhibits and displays of Truman's presidency, including photos, letters, and artifacts. Visitors can take a guided tour of the house and learn about Truman's life, presidency, and Key West's history.

The house is surrounded by lush gardens and a picturesque view of the Gulf of Mexico. Apart from the house, there are several other buildings on the property, including a caretaker's cottage, a garage, and a pool house.

Today, the Little White House is a popular tourist attraction, drawing visitors from all over the world. It is open to the public for tours, events, and private functions, making it a must-visit destination for history buffs and those interested in the presidency.
