Recognition from Visitors

  • "Beautiful place to relive history. Very knowledgeable volunteers reenacting our past and teaching us a day in the lives of what the soldiers went through. Excellent place to explore."
  • "This is an extremely underrated historical site. There is a whole reconstruction of the original colonial village that was there. It's absolutely beautiful, on the way in there's also a floating dock that has a canoe/kayak put in. It's definitely one of the best and most accessible parks in Chester!"

 

  • "Wonderful environment for walking thru the early 1600s here in Virginia. Lots of history. Simply outstanding."

 

  • "Very informative and educational. The kids enjoyed the hand on activities. Really impressive representations of structures."
