This is a great place and its right by Pierson's Air Park, a small active airport in Vancouver, WA. It has a Fort used by the fur traders of years ago. Great place to see history and enjoy with the kids.

I live about 10 blocks from these grounds. I love walking all over the Historic Reserve, where Officers' Row houses are situated. Take in the Historic Reserve Restaurant while there. Lots 'O History.

I came upon this street of former officer's quarters while looking for The Grant House restaurant. The homes are well-kept and the lawns all manicured. It was a delightful stroll along the north side of the Fort Vancouver parade grounds!

Take a stroll down Officers' Row and you can't help but be transported back in time. If you are lucky enough to visit when the weather is nice and everything is in bloom you will be happy you came. A perfect place to walk, talk and play with the whole family. Make sure to visit the Fort while you're nearby!

If you like ols beautiful homes with wrap around porches and you can't make a trip to the south this is the place. The trees lining the road are outstanding and the walk along the old fort very relaxing.

Officer's Row is part of the Fort Vancouver site. Lovely quarters turned into offices and some apts. to rent. Lovingly maintained--with the large playing field across the street where many community events take place--like the Annual Fireworks at the Fort on the 4th of July. Nice to drive thru--or walk and have a picnic.
