  This was a fun way to spend an afternoon. It was hot but the cabins you go in and out of weren’t too bad temperature wise. Most of the cabins has people there showing how things are made, like yarn and clay pots, they all seemed very knowledgeable and happy to answer questions. We enjoyed it.

  Nice staff, interesting glimpse at early pioneer life. Historical context somewhat muddled as fort is not on original site nor an accurate reproduction but that's clearly stated.

  Amazing displays with even more amazing people who work there. Very knowledgeable, friendly, and just pleasant in general. Don't forget to buy some merchandise from the store, a lot of it is made at the fort.
