Reviews of Historic Fort Steilacoom
"Cool historic museum of the military fort from the 1800. To see most of it, you need to do one of the guided tours. You cannot see everything on a self guided tour. There are four buildings you can see on the tour, each with different themes showing what activities would have taken place in the past. The tour guides were great, giving detailed explanations of the rooms, activities, and history of the fort and the people of the time."
"The fort straddles the road to it and the south side of the fort had walking paths, ball playing fields and picnic areas, good parking. The north side has a number of historic buildings including the state mental hospital. No tours. Open areas, well kept and neat. Worth a day's outing. I rate it a ten."
"This Museum consists of three, of the original six, two story buildings that at one time contained officer's quarters and was called "Officer's Row." Alongside officer's row is another original building, all of which date from the 1850's, that served as both an Army Chapel and Quartermaster offices. There is an interpretive center with an incredible diorama of the complete fort complex plus loads of historic artifacts. You can take a guided tour of all four buildings which is super cool! Everything is set up exactly as it would have appeared during the American Civil War."
"This park is amazing. There are tons of trails up in the hills, around the lake and through the woods. The trails around the lake are paved. The paths in the trees are pretty easy, the trails in the hills can be very steep. The view is unbelievable."
"Small but fun. The historical society members love what they do and will gladly walk you through the historical daily activities of military life in the pacific northwest in the 1880's."
