Fort Hunt Park is of more historical significance than many realize. I highly recommend that everyone visit at least once. There are several pavilions around the park where people can have parties as well as fields to play various sports like baseball and soccer. There are also public restrooms (though not very clean). The playground is being renovated and should be ready soon. Perhaps I am partial because I grew up next to this park, but I never grow tired of going to Fort Hunt Park.

Beautiful large park with a new kids playground, beach volleyball, concerts area, restrooms, and lots of spreadout picnic areas. Its a large loop thats great for biking too. The Summer Sundays free concerts are always enjoyable and lots of fun.

I didn't know this park is here. I am so glad I stopped by. The fort has been neglected and people drew on the walls. Therecare some historic markers/signs. Seemed lonely and quiet. There weren't anyone here checking out the fort but me. It's incredible how many sacrificed and are sacrificing for this country, and we have so many who are so unappreciative of what this country has to offer. The direction we are heading is going to make many look back and remember the "good days when we had freedom". Sad time we are in...

We recently rented lot D for my daughters 2 year old birthday party. It was such a cute place. The process to rent it out online was quick and easy. Their system automatically has reminders and noticed before your event. You have to get a license if you want to rent out a moon voice but other than that they allow beer and wine without an ABC license. There is so much park space around the gazebo that we set up a soccer field and had so much fun. The lot has a driveway up so you can drive up and place your grills or unload. They allow you to decorate and also placed a port-a-potty close since the neared bathroom facilities are pretty far away. There is also lots of parking. Great time and would love to rent it out again.

Bathroom were not clean. The park seems poorly maintained. Our group made sure to clean up well. Considering such a beautiful location, its a shame to see apathy among users of the park. Perhaps the Park Service could do some community outreach, develop a mission statement, and create something that everyone could enjoy.
