  • Great historic place! House is beautiful, the trail that goes along the river offers a shade on a hot day. The small parks good for littler kids.
  • Beautiful historic area. Great guided tour of the Mansion, $8 for adults, $6 for seniors and children, and $4 for students. My only complaint is that you can not go inside any of the other buildings.
  • Love Ft. Hunter! I take my girls here to the play ground all the time. WE go for walks and look at the river. My husband even plays pick-up soccer games here. Feels safe.
  • Having a wonderful experience with the kids. May bring them here again.
  • A place to visit when in Harrisburg. Scenic and historical. Covered bridge.
