Fort Robinson State Park visitors can choose lodging from rooms in the 1909 enlisted men's quarters or "cabins" ranging from sleep 2 to 20 in the former officers quarters that date from 1874 to 1909. All "cabins" have kitchens, baths, living rooms and bedrooms. Several sleep 6 and all larger units have living rooms. Cabins are full housekeeping units furnished with blankets, towels, stoves, refrigerators, silverware and cooking utensils.
On the west side of the state park on the main highway is a marker honoring the "Outbreak". Several hundred yards to the west of that placard is the memorial shown here. It is about 100 yards north of the highway. It is well worth the visit.
This is a beautiful historic cavalry Remount fort that caters to horses. There are nice stalls, overnight hookups for trailers, and the riding here is unsurpassed by anywhere else I have ever ridden. When the Fort is open, they have an excellent restaurant located on site, as well as other activities like a Playhouse and chuckwagon ride. It is peaceful, quiet, and away from the hustle and bustle.
