Fort Stanwix National Monument

Built in 1758 to guard a strategic port along a major transportation route, today this national site maintains an extensive archaeological collection and a nearly complete reconstructed Revolutionary War fort with interpreters.

Reviewed By C0rgiL0ver - Alton, United States

The log fort is a wonderful reconstruction of the Revolutionary War fort. The Vistor's Center has very interesting displays and excellent films providing a good background to the history of the fort and the area. The Park Ranger was very helpful. Even the rain did not diminish the visit.

Fort Rickey Discovery Zoo

Fort Rickey is a special kind of zoo with a focus on fun and interaction. We understand that children learn best and remember best when they are actively engaged. We offer feeding and petting areas, a maternity ward with baby goats and animal shows featuring wolves, otters and snakes. A giant tube and tunnel maze with ball crawl and slides compliments the hands on approach.

Only open on the weekends in the Fall, we set our Sunday aside to visit Fort Rickey. With children ages 18 months, 3,7,and 12, there was something for each of them. The 3 and 7 year old loved riding trikes and pedal tractors through the while zoo! The "baby" and 12 year old loved the Maternity Ward and holding the baby goats. The middle two loved the hay maze. The ball pit and tunnels were loved by all. We all enjoyed the scheduled educational talks at various animal exhibits. If you're looking for a state of the art, modern zoo with tons of exotic animals this place is not for you. If you want a fun memorable experience, that the kids can run and play at and you can get up close and personal with many of the animals then start planning your trip. Some of what we saw...ferrets, capybara,wallabies,alpacas,snake,ponies,giant bunnies,black swan, white swan, ducks,pig,peacocks,lemurs,otters and tortus(away for winter),deer white and cute friendly brown.
