  • What a great way to spend the day! Everything from the video history to the tour itself was fun, informational, and extremely interesting. Garland, Lana, and Ann really made it into a whole experience, not just a simple walk-through. I highly recommend visiting, you will not regret it.
  • As listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Very interesting and very friendly, knowledgeable staff. Worth the trip...watch out for rattlesnakes!
  • From the welcome to the history told by the personal guide Brett Fort Chadbourne Museum was a rewarding family outing.
  • Great place. Do yourself a favor and learn some regional history.
  • Great historical fort and friendly owners that are proud to show the history and property.
