Seven miles of marked trails through the preserve enable visitors to enjoy the beauty and splendor of the park. Over six miles are available during the winter for cross country skiing as long as we have four or more inches of snow on the ground.

lorri klingenberger: Awesome fun
Laura Bell: Kids always have fun here.
Blake Z: Great Lake, great trails for hiking , love it $2 per person
Zach Parrish: I hadn't been to Fox Island since I was a very young kid. I remember the name but no solid memories. After our visit today we decided to start making this a regular thing. We have a new puppy which was great because Fox Island is dog friendly. She swimmed for her time. A memory that we'll never forget. We had some friends tag along. They enjoyed the day finding frogs while we hiked the beautiful trails. Highly recommend as it's in Fort Waynes back yard.
Tessah R: Props to Julia at the main building for visitors she was really cool and talked a lot to us about the turtles! 🐢 😀 please watch your step so you don't step on the box turtle! He's very chill!
Coleen Miller: great for kids and dogs
Caleb Schmucker: Great place to go birding !!
Ems C: Very fun !
EMILY BURKETT: Love going to the lake and trails!
Kathy Leahy: Great trails, going again to do some others.
Scott Amstutz: Excellent walking trails that double as x country skiing in winter.
Derek Wetli: Park is well maintained/protected and accurately represents what Fort Wayne was before development. Nice beach with clean natural spring fed lake. E-coli counts less than well water in the area. Beautiful wetlands and tremendous wildlife. Staff management leaves much to be desired...
Leena Edgar: We love Fox Island! Everyone there is wonderful except one lady in the office seems to not like children even when they are super well behaved. Avoid her, and you'll have a wonderful time!
Bill: Beautiful trails. Muddy spots after a rain, especially in the marsh area, but that is to be expected of course! Great for hiking and mushroom hunting. Nature Center is a great place for families. Staff were helpful and kind.
Sandy Mueller: Love the hiking trails

Rob Motsinger: This is a great place for many different activities. Playgrounds for the family, a lake, and many deep and twisty trails great for walking and for biking. Keep your eyes out and ears open for other bikers.
Jared Numbers: The park and it's facilities are well-cares for. Beautiful sites. And the proximity to the Fort Wayne Children's Zoo is a huge bonus. Great place to take the kiddos.
nightmare 101: Friend of mine had her wedding reception right next to the water and it was absolutely beautiful.
J Preston: Beautiful area trails. If your on one trail you can easily get off course with several hidden trails. It was pretty muddy for my dog and I the day we went, and I couldn’t get many photos, but we still had fun. Highly recommend.
Chester Tejido (Cham): Nice to walk around if you're bored. It was muddy when I was there though.
layla ahmed: I love visiting the park in Christmas. They had lots of Christmas lights and designs up. I especially like watching the ducks in the lake. I go there often to teach my daughter driving and it is helping her a lot.
Jonathon J: Be prepared - geese run the park around the pond!Playground: Nice playground area for the kids.Restrooms: Public bathrooms on site.Picnic area: 1 open pavilion and 2 enclosed you can reserve through the city Parks and Recreation Department. I don't recall ever seeing other picnic areas there - probably due to the geese duck population.
Arron Declue: Great experience...the lights was top
Laura Mccue: Fantasy of Lights we're beautiful to see
B McMillan: Nice park. The Fantasy of Lights drive through event is a terrific holiday tradition. Next to the outstanding Fort Wayne Zoo.
L W Durril: Gorgeous 🎄
Linda Martin: Lots of beautiful lighted decorations to see at the Fantasy of Lights.
Laurie Hammond: Beautiful park
Amanda Moore: Was fun christmas lights
Tom French: Went to the Christmas event. The grandkids had a great time.
Ellie Neuerburg: So so pretty! A perfectly foggy morning with nobody else around. Got to enjoy a view from the middle of the pond thanks to the available deck, and got to make friends with some of the baby geese. Enjoyed a seat on the waters edge when I got surrounded by the little guys, which was such a serotonin boost! A gorgeous sunrise shining through the flowers allowed for a very pretty photo op and truly added to the experience.
Conner: Fantastic running and biking opportunities.
Samuel Hauptstueck: This is a fantastic park to visit alone or with friends or family. There are many great hiking trails in the woods, as well as the fantastic Fort Wayne Children’s Zoo.
Matt Dietrich: Mountain bike trails were well maintained and had good flow to them. Was quite surprised by the quality of the trails.
Skip Balkenbusch: Lots of people out walking and enjoying a beautiful day!
Alessandra Rainbow: I have loved this park since 20 yr +

Robert Fournier: We have stayed numerous times and have enjoyed every one. Going back this year!! Great City park.
Michael Harding: Very quiet, relaxing parking lot right on river. Will be checking on the camping there
Patricia McReynolds: Difficult to find, loved seeing his gravesite.
Tabitha Ketchum: Kinda blah....maybe it was just this season but bathrooms were locked, kids had to pee and that was the biggest problem for me. Where were the city workers but kids had a little fun with themselves and the snow. Will definitely check it out during summer.Playground: Small but it was nice, for smaller children.
Hailey Perkins: Little weird if a parking set up but beautiful spot.
Terri Lessard: Great dog park. Two large fenced in areas. Plenty of parking.Restrooms: Clean and fairly close see e to dog park.Dog-friendliness: It's a dog park! Poop bags and disposal areas available.
Alissa Doehla: Beautiful little park. Small but fun kid's play structure. Dog parks. Campground. Area along the river. Nice spot in FW!
Andrea Carlson DVM: Lovely peaceful campground!
Joseph Pearce: Great little park. The grounds and bath houses were extremely well maintained. The staff was phenomenal. The RV spots were nice and big and easy to get in and out of. Being right beside Johnny Appleseed’s grave was really neat — I never realized he was a real person until we stayed here.
Jennie Hunt: The playground is cool! And there is a dog park there too. Also scenic lookouts of the bridge and old filtration plant.
William Bennett: Definitely stay there again. Great city camping.
Bill Patterson: Well kept area. There is a nice turn around that just barely allowed our 35ft. fifth-wheel around. - CAUTION - There were some low lying branches that took off our front sidelight lens covers.and A very close tree/branch along the upper inside corner - CAUTION - SWING WIDE
Ingrid Mello: Up on a hill, kind of hard to find. I parked in the coliseum parking lot and walked up.
Michael Garber: Great venue for the Johnny Appleseed Festival. Lord of vendors and period demonstrations.
Natalie Wright: Small for camping but a nice park for walking
Marta Hayes: I’ve been here a week and have paid for a month and I can say that if they gave refunds I’d ask for my refund and leave the same day I don’t have the prettiest or most expensive camper and one of the park host husband has made me feel the poorest and dirties I’ve ever felt my whole life I will not be returning till I have a camper that is from the 2000’s 😮💨😮💨😮💨😭 I have four you g children and do not appreciate being spoken to as if my dollar has a different value then there’s
Robert Howell: It was exactly as described. We learned some the history of Johnny and were able to give him our thanks for the hard work he devoted his life to.We will return during the next event held here.
James Burrows: I've booked this place before, but since last year, it has gone down hill. First, I can not be upset with the location or SOME of the camp hosts, they are great. But when you come back from work and find items from your storage area sitting outside and water lines have been pulled to the point that it cracked the flange leading into the camper, and the bucket the water line was in is now missing. It makes you wonder.Also the first night, the smell of pot being smoked was so strong I had to close my camper up, it seems as though nobody cares what goes on around here.When reporting to staff about the water line and the missing bucket, I got a serious attitude from "Rick", the husband of the campgrounds host, "what do you want me to do about it" in a rough begrudgingly tone..So, keep it in mind that this place has a few issues. I spend 40 weeks out of the year in my TT and this is the first time I have ever had an issue, and rude attitude from a host.Will I return here next time when work brings me back this way? Depends on who is the host and I will be looking at every review to see what others think.
Todd Brink: Nice park! It's nice that it's downtown Ft Wayne, that you can be close to all the restaurants, bars, and things happening around town.
julia j: Only positive memory I have of growing up in this horrible city.
pinkE fam vlogs: It was a great and fun family experience I will be doing this for years and years to come with my three children thank you for a wonderful time guys

Stephanie Neujahr: This was our second time at the Ft. I was thrilled they were actually having a reenactment. The kids were able to see period dress uniforms and the inside of some of the rooms. Take the opportunity to stop and check out the history of old Ft. Wayne
James Lundgren: Volunteer run historical site. Interesting place to visit and learn about different time periods.Restrooms: Open for special events
Cynthia Keller: I love going to the old Fort and walking around. The weekends they are open, LOVE the BAKED GOODIES....YUM
John Davis: Had a great time
Dustin Hart: This place was real and the wood was real. The was no person there to take pay for a tour.
Ericka Williams-glenney: Parking? Construction? No signs to let you know where to go? YES they had all that!
Jeff Jenkins: Their reenactments are worth going to, the feel of the cannons going off is unreal, great family day...
Mike Moore: The volunteers make this place wonderful.
D: Disappointing. I was there for Fright Night lantern tour 2022. Not many lanterns. Walked thru the buildings in the dark so we couldn't see much. This is a very small fort. Not much information provided, very little historical description & stories compared to similar places I've been to. It is a re-creation...but you can clearly see modern materials in the building, like 'tough stuff' foam in the walls.
Piero Pighetti: Nice Place to visit, great for children and adults, many characters and crafts to be able to see. the house are very well kept
John “Wally”: So we decided to check out the fort. I found it to be fascinating. The people were dressed historically and did a great job of giving insightful looks into the life and times of living at the fort. I was especially surprised to learn how many guys share a bunk.... Wow.
Jonathan Fiet: Great staff (go Bob!). Great historical events.
Nancy Eckerman: Always a great place
Edwin Ramirez: Wil come back
Janice Kopriva: Would like to see information at the buildings to tell about the history.
Katie Hicks: I love history and would love others to be able to experience this for what it is but it seems there isn't much emphasis on making it a major Fort Wayne attraction despite the irony of that. If they want to attract more visitors to the fort, they really should make it more interactive for guests. The majority of the structures are blocked off so I can't see many people coming here if they know what to expect ahead of time. Seems poorly managed.
Re Naissance: It was beautiful and the woman who worked there was kind and informative
Christine Spangler: More could be done to interest visitors. Most of the buildings are roped off. You can peek in the doors. Crossing the street to visit is scary. A very busy road with few breaks to make it across. Someone was there to answer questions. Just not much to display
Elizabeth Welty: A great stop with the family! Friendly, time-period volunteers were there talking about things and everyone enjoyed the history and experience! 👍
Daniel Guntermann: I remember when this fort was really hopping in the 70's. People really had pride in our historic heritage at the time. Great to see it still going after all these years.
Jonathan Jackson: Absolutely no charge to visit this 1816 reconstruction of the 5th fort on this site, starting with Gen. Anthony Wayne's HQ during the Ohio Indian wars of the 1790's.
