Built in 1758 to guard a strategic port along a major transportation route, today this national site maintains an extensive archaeological collection and a nearly complete reconstructed Revolutionary War fort with interpreters.

The log fort is a wonderful reconstruction of the Revolutionary War fort. The Vistor's Center has very interesting displays and excellent films providing a good background to the history of the fort and the area. The Park Ranger was very helpful. Even the rain did not diminish the visit.

The Oneida Community is a fascinating historical location. The communal living concepts, silver products and residence, return the visitor to the period. The entire operation is well done.

... as in Ripley's Believe it or Not. It's on an island in the middle of a pond. There isn't a congregation, but I'm told the occasional wedding has been held there. Some entertainment value in its uniqueness, to be sure, but it won't take longer than 5 or 10 minutes even if you insist on getting the perfect selfie.
7. Fort Rickey Discovery Zoo
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 35 reviews
Fort Rickey is a special kind of zoo with a focus on fun and interaction. We understand that children learn best and remember best when they are actively engaged. We offer feeding and petting areas, a maternity ward with baby goats and animal shows featuring wolves, otters and snakes. A giant tube and tunnel maze with ball crawl and slides compliments the hands on approach.

We just traveled to the Fort Rickey Discovery Zoo for a day trip from Syracuse. There were two adults and seven kids ranging in ages from 2-16. We began our adventure with the noon snake show featuring a python snake. Our young snake keeper arrived with the snake around her neck and waist. She told us all about the habitat and eating habits of the python and answered most of our questions. Each child/adult was able to pet the snake and then take a picture with the handler and snake if they chose to. After that 20 minute show we took advantage of the picnic area they provide. They allow you to bring in your own food and coolers which saves so much money for families. We had just enough time to eat to make the 1pm opening of the maternity ward which is a fenced in area of baby goats, mothers and some sheep. After a quck run down of the rules, kids are encouraged to hold the animals while seated so as to not cause any harm to the animals. We all loved that! Then off to feed and pet deer in another fenced in enclosure. How many times can you ever pet to pet a deer? They love the feed filled ice cream cones, 3 cones for $4.00. We saw wallabie;s, ostrich,, goats, tortoise, spider monkeys, bunnies, porcupines and beautiful white wolves. The owner/trainer gets inside their enclosure and the animals respond to him like a favorite pet. They licked his face and allowed his to pet them. They certainly love their trainer. The Zoo is small and walkable for all ages. All of our 2-4 year olds had no problem walking the entire zoo. The staff is very friendly and willing to answer any questions you might have. All areas are clean and well maintained. Be prepared to share your lunch with some chickens and peacocks who are very use to human interaction.

.Very nice little bistro. Nice specials and good atmosphere. Ordered on Omagang beer and it was out. Ordered a mushroom burger with NYS Swiss cheese however was not asked how I would like it cooked. Burger was very good. Fries were very salty, perhaps a bit overly so. Drank my water and it was never refilled. Waited an exceptionally long time to have our plates cleared and check presented. Only two waitresses and one took off during prime time. The owner had to clear tables and serve plates which was a good thing. Overall the long drawn out experience took away from a very nice meal. Hoping this is constructive to help improve the service.

Replayed this course in another NYSGA tournament. Unfortunately, it was pouring rain and had been pouring for at least a day in advance. However, despite the adverse conditions, we did play the course. The fairways were very wet and water did pool in low areas making the course play very long. The positive news is that the greens drained very well and although they were much slower than normal - there were no unplayable areas on the green. Bunkers also drained well. I will continue to play in this event.
