It's interesting to go if you can picture a lot. I wish more would have been preserved

Great education back to the beginnings of our country. Amazing defenses and complete town fully functioning! Also, a historical center and movie with good historical background.

This is a National Monument, which is always a good reason to go check it out. The first settlement in Coastal Georgia, with a town, and a fort on the river. The town did not catch on, and there are no intact buildings left. The site is absolutely gorgeous, with giant towering oaks all over, and the river is a short walk away. The history is well documented with many information plaques on your walk. If you are in the area this is well worth the time visit.

Very fun and educational. It's easy to get the feeling that you have stepped foot back in time also the gorgeous views are breath taking. Plenty of memorable photo opportunities.

Free to enjoy which was nice.
You have a choice to take a tour or view the grounds on your own. My husband and I decided to just walk on our own. It was very interesting and I thought the grounds were lovely.
We didn't get watch the movie because of technical issues but we had a good time.

Great historical park. They do a fantastic job mapping out where people lived, what their jobs were and it helps you get a sense of what life must have been like. I had no idea the Scottish played any kind of military role back then in our early history but it makes sense. Lots of fun to learn about it and be able to see the remnants of the past.

Very surprised, this was a lovely afternoon out that I hadn't expected. For a free outing, you can't complain! Very informative although lots of spelling mistakes on information panels and quite a lot of bugs and mosquitos, but probably just this time of year anywhere around here. Very nice.

This is a place with so much potential, both realized and forthcoming. With a fresh infusion of support, this spot would be among the preeminent historical stops to learn about English colonialism in the South. A few reconstructed homes, and it would feel like a smaller, coastal Williamsburg. As it is now, it feels more like a historical park, with some very interesting ruins, history, as well as a lot of shade for hot southern afternoons. Definitely worth a trip or a picnic, and a donation, if you can spare one. It's a gem that's hidden from many, and yet worth all of our attention.

What an excellent historic site! The archaeological work done here is excellent, with a whole historic city laid out with markers and street signs. Signs informing guests on site usage and residence is great! A must see for any history buff or those interested in historical archaeology.

Expect to be there an hour or longer. The live and pin oaks are majestic! A great place for a family picnic. No admission fee. Pets are allowed on the grounds, just not inside the buildings. Rangers had even put out cool water for my dog!

Historical park with monuments, and signs depicting the era gone by. Hut, vegetable garden, street signs where streets once were, The Fort remains. Markers and shadow boxes indicating archeological finds and information pertaining to that particular site. Beautiful trees, moss, visitors center. Be sure to watch the short video before touring via a guide or self-guided.

Fort Frederica National Park also was enlightening about Robert Abbott who was born to a former slave.He later went to college and graduated as an attorney but he was considered too black. He then moved up north where he started
the first black paper Empire and became a millionaire. He even funded musicians and other black entrepreneurs and their crafts financially. It was awesome to read about his life and I was impressed that the Fort Frederica National Park payed tribute to our black heritage.
