On the second floor of the Eisenhower home
there are 13 rooms, six bedrooms, five
Bathrooms, a sitting room, and Mamie's
dressing room. The first one you
encounter at the top of the stairs is
Mrs. Doud's room. Mamies mother EliVera
Carlson Doud used this room when she
stayed at the farm. After her death in
1960 it served as a guest room. Although
ninety-five percent of the furnishings
throughout the rest of the home are
original these in Mrs. Doud's room
are replicated from the rooms original
pieces that Mamie gave away to
relatives.
Note how the room and adjacent bathroom
are painted and furnished in the first lady's favorite color.
