Had a wonderful Saturday ride leaving Willits. The train crew are pleasant and knowledgeable. All the staff are friendly. Am looking forward to trying one of their themed rides like Halloween or Christmas.

We have been to Fort Bragg several times and this was our 1st trip on the Skunk train. We were lucky enough to be here for the Days of Steam! It was so fun to have the train pulled by a steam engine.

It is a beautiful trip. I just wish the restrooms were not full to the top and cleaner. It’s a long trip to town.

Such fun! We took our adult children and our grandchildren. It was the first time for our grandchildren and we all had so much fun! We especially loved the new and beautiful recreation area that the train stops for 45 minutes. It’s a trip that everyone should experience at least once!

My mom and I had a blast and we can't wait until till we can go on the longer Skunk trail with the tunnel. They told us maybe 3-5 years but we will sure be back for that one. The games and trail was nice. Our two dogs even enjoyed the ride.
