"Even though the interior museum is currently closed the grounds are still a nice peaceful place to take a walk."
"Great visit to the Fort but unfortunately it was under refurbishment but the grounds were nice to walk around."
"If you love history, you will like this place."
"There is so much history here. We were showed all of the fort's compartments, pole barns, hallways, and underground walkways. Alan was our tour guide. He is so full of knowledge and you can tell he truly enjoys sharing this with you. I had the best time with my sister and niece spending a few hours with Alan."
"Home schooling day out -- world history day. Live actors to take you back to that place in time, along with a guide to share some facts and history with us. We loved it! We even did the pledge of allegiance, since it was a school day. They take donations and I strongly advise to donate."
