Fort Humboldt State Historic Park

"A peaceful retreat into a chaotic past.. some benches and paths around you as visit the historic buildings. Perched overlooking the busy main road it's like a different world.. id suggest bringing food for a nice picnic or a scooter for your little for extra entertainment"

"Was very underwhelming. I thought there would be more here. Half the property is employee housing. The two buildings that are standing were closed for entry. Main hospital building had windows completely boarded off. Couldn't even use the bathroom because it was on a code, that you had to walk all the way to the visitor center to get, then walk all the way back. Not a single staff member in sight. I work for State Park's, and this is one of the most poorly maintained state parks I've ever visited. It's good they don't change an entry fee, because it is wasted potential."

"Good place to get a view of the bay. Big sky to watch the clouds. Big groomed grassy area to walk. Many people walk their dogs here. Has bathroom and old historical information."

"It's a Bitter Sweet experience. As a kid I loved it, the little logger cabin,etc. Now that I'm older and they have recently added plaques around the site explaining what really happened when Bucks Port "Eureka" was founded. I'm glad that they did that it was a long time coming. It's a awesome place to fly a kite and walk Your dog on a sunny day. I suggest it if your from out of the area and want to learn some of the history of Humboldt County. Enjoy"

"A small but interesting oasis in Eureka. Dog-friendly. Strolled around a few times with my dog for our afternoon walk, enjoying the sunny afternoon. Some interesting engines, trains and other miscellany explaining Eureka's logging history. There are also some buildings from when the area was a US Army fort. Definitely worth a visit."
