This place is beautiful. I enjoyed the tranquility, the nature trails (Willow Pond Nature Trail) the grounds, and the views of the fort. The beach stroll was equally delightful. The highlight for me was the stunning wildlife. For the first time in my life, I saw white-tailed deer grazing and enjoying life. I’m happy they have a safe space here. I also saw a big, cute turtle. The beach wasn’t crowded, so I was able to relax, take in the sights, and listen to the water crashing against the rocks. The drive up to the parking lot is amazing too, with a tree canopy covering the entire road.

Interesting and inexpensive way to spend a few hours in the area! Park entry was $6 with two adults in the car and fort entry for us both was $5 total. Lots of natural beauty to explore and plenty of coastline to hunt shark teeth!

Very awesome place to visit! All of the staff that we met were friendly and helpful. Great experience for people who love history! When we visited, they were doing some work in a couple of areas but nothing that hindered our touring of the grounds. I highly recommend a visit if you are in the area!!

Beautiful Fort. Like walking into a movie set or a novel that has come alive. By that I mean it was set up like the forts in books I have read but have never seen except in my mind. This is not just a single rectangular brick building it’s an entire community inside the walls. The museum has set the rooms up with home goods, and other items in the Quarter Masters Warehouse or store to give a view into living there. The fort was so fascinating with all of the tunnels and stairwells between the inner and outer walls one could imagine protecting it. Say hello to the lone soldier, in full uniform, guarding the fort itself. Tip: bring your water bottle out with you so you can linger longer and look past the cannons to the view of the ocean beyond. The museum itself also has interesting information and artifacts.
