Reviews
"I love this spot. Our boy scouts live camping here"
"This place is a gem. A great place for history re-enactments. Watch for the Fair in May, Trappers Day in September and Independence School Sessions in June. Follow them on Facebook and check the website calendar."
"Ft. Lupton is a hidden gem in Ft. Lupton, Colorado. It is run by volunteers and offers a wonderful historic trip back to the mid-1800's. Google "special event dates and visiting dates/times" because you just missed the Trapper Days Rendezvous. It had many authentic trapper vendors set up, a black powder muzzle rifle range, spinning wheel demonstrations, blacksmithing, blade sharpening, and wood carving. The Buffalo Soldiers did an amazing routine that drew quite a crowd. The trading post was also open for business and really busy. This is a perfect place to leave the 2000's behind and enjoy the past."
"Great historical replica fort, we were there for US Flag retirement ceremony. Definitely a great place to visit. Several events thru the year, Trapper days in September, civil war re-enactment, rendezvous."
