Well ... that was a huge disappointment! No sign telling what went on here! No sign telling when and how it was built! No sign showing what it would have looked like when in use! NO NOTHING!! A few picnic tables, a few rusted out cannons( were they actually used there??) Don’t bother.

Very cool hidden treasure in our own backyard. Great place to take kids to get out and walk around.

Nice place! Small, but nice for a picnic and short walk. Drove by it at first, the entrance is very small and almost unnoticeable. But it’s great here and worth a visit if you’re looking for something secluded and quiet.

Very small but incredibly peaceful and beautiful. Plan to go here as well as the other 6 state parks near by for the full experince. This is a site during the civil war where we took in cargo from the river. There are signs posted for no digging and you can use a metal detector. You have to report anything you find but take tons of pics

This is not a big park (nature trail) but its still beautiful. Great spot for photos and a wonderful view of the dames point bridge. As a photographer i can see myself bringing clients here for Portraits. The trees are amazing.If your looking for any of that or a small walk of nature id go here. Perfect also for quite family picnics very shaded.

A very very short walk. Be careful of the giant ant piles, especially in the parking lot near the main sign. The park is a lot smaller than Google maps shows due to the fencing. Great shade and photo ops!

This is a very small park with a few picnic tables but no other amenities. I was absolutely memorized by the beautiful trees here. As I walked through the park I was surprised by how quiet it was there being so close to the port terminal, you can hear the nature around you. This is a good place for a short walk, picnic or just to sit and enjoy the quiet of nature.

This quiet Park is tucked out of the way but you can feel the history emanating from the old fortifications

Nothing here except a small plaque and a few randomly placed cannons. Surrounded by developed industrial sites from Jax Port. It seems to have lost its significance for being preserved as a state park.

Not every historical site can have a visitor center, bathroom, museum, movie theater etc. This is a nice place to walk around, observe nature and learn some history.
