Location can get a bit crowded during Pokemon events buts adds to charm of place. Love the historical value added and stories behind the fort and people who lived there. With Halloween right around corner hoping COVID doesnt prevent this years haunted lantern tours. The only on site rest room is located in gift shop see websitr for hours and details. Otherwise library is short walk away. There are so many parts to the Fort. Buildings walking paths historical information kiosks. Ample parking in multiple places. Add in all the improvements to Officers row onsite restaurant of Grant house and walking trail that connects to waterfront anx you have a family friendly picnic or outing destination. Check...

Great venue to have an event! The staff was very helpful, prompt on correspondence when we had questions, and overall, very accommodating and pleasure to work with. The feedback we received from the 70 author vendors we had there for our KXRW NW Book Fair was for the most part all positive and want to return next year. The event was a huge success and so fun to see the community coming to celebrate our local literary art scene. Big thanks to the Historic Trust for being such wonderful community partners! :) By Susan Galaviz, KXRW.FM Founder...
