Visited the Fort on a previous visit. Definitely worth the time. You come away with a flavor of the people and the trials of the early settlers and of army life in this area in the mid to late 1800's. More

The exhibits and buildings of Fort Davis were an informative addition to our understanding of life in the 19th century when life was more difficult and uncertain. It is well presented and, if you take the nature hike, you get a wonderful view of the whole fort and the parts of the old San Antonio- El Paso military road. More

I liked the trail more on the National Park site than the State Park side, but both were interesting, but challenging for a 64 yr old. of only average fitness level. The exhibits were very well done but don't miss the museum in the gift shop. More

My kiddos love getting to see the old western stuff More

The park service did a great job restoring the buildings and associated ruins (dating from the mid 1800's). The museum is very well done with great displays and artifacts.

Walking the grounds is going back in time. The Parks Service did an excellent job of restoring many of the buildings and giving visitors a sense of the history that happened here. A highlight for me was visiting the hospital and learning about how the various illnesses were treated - and seeing the instruments used. This Fort was very important... More
