Fort Pocahontas- the Fort

Below are images of the fort from a previous reenactment weekend. The reenactment is generally held on the first weekend in June yearly, see their website for details (link). There is plenty of parking. This is the only way to see this well-preserved fort as it is on private property. There is a small admission fee.
