About Fort Stevenson State Park

586 acres of land sit on a peninsula reaching into Lake Sakakawea, holding a partial reconstruction of the 19th-century Missouri River fort that gave the park its name. The original fort site lies about two miles southwest, now submerged under the lake's waters. The reconstruction stands as the built feature within the park's acreage.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
