Very nice vacation break, we grabbed some pizza at DiCarlos and sat down on the wall and had lunch along the riverbank. Nice view of the suspension bridge, people enjoying the day, more than a few dogs wandering along walking their owners. A nice stop to take a break at.

This is a nice place for a walk. There is also a nice playground for younger kids. Watch out for the geese.

I enjoy the entire set up here, only improvement I would recommend would be building and maintaining a rest room even if its locked at night and having more accessible parking near the port for handicap

I have been staying near the herritage port while working in the area. I brought my dog with me (thinking I was only going to be working in the area for a week, but that quickly changed into 3 weeks. The Herritage Port is a nice walking/picnic/dog walking area in Wheeling WV. The dog happens to love the place and has a blast every evening when I walk him down there after work.

This is a lovely spot along the river, although it was a bit run-down when we visited. The river trail connects here so you can enjoy a long walk, and theres a small playground nearby for the children.

Quiet and clean place to take a few moments next to the Ohio river. Lots of open space for activities, picnicking and quite a few adirondack chairs to sit and relax.

Great place to relax, a bit pricey but well worth the extra cash, just didnt like all the wheeling homeless people bumming for drinks while i ate my meal, but the upgrade in food was great!!

This place seems to pretty much always have something going on. Id highly recommend checking out the Fourth of July fireworks celebration held here and also the Italian Festival. Even when there isnt an event going on here its still a beautiful place to check out. It has one of the best views of the suspension bridge around.

Italian Festival, lots of great food, beer, and vendors. Live music needs updating but its free so there is that. Well secured with police and fire patrols. If nothing else is taken from this review the following two words are the only ones that matter. Elephant Ears.

A beautiful location along the historic Wheeling waterfront. Great acoustics during live music shows in both an amazingly comfortable and spacious location, all accompanied by a stunning view of the locally famous pre-civil war Wheeling Suspension Bridge.On days when special events arent being held, its a perfect place for a scenic bike ride or a casual stroll along the historic Wheeling waterfront ;all within walking distance of several downtown restaurants should the mood strike you.

Great views of the Ohio River, Wheeling Island and the Suspension Bridge. There is a walking/biking path along the park. It has a childrens play area that is nice. They also provide Adirondack chairs along the waterfront that allows you to rest and take in the views.Two complaints:1. The back of the buildings need a face lift.2. There were several sketchy people hanging out at the amphitheater.

Heritage port holds a special place in my heart. From water front Wednesdays to the Italian festival and spectacular firework displays, much of my childhood was spent walking along side the river

On Saturday, the beauty and serenity of this place, nestled above a beautiful section of the majestic Ohio river, was greatly enhanced by a wonderful festival called the Jagganath Chariot festival. It originates from ancient India, and it includes onstage performances of talented dancers, and the chanting of captivating spiritual songs called mantras. Great food, face-painting, and real spiritual energy. Im definately trying to make it next year, Festival of the Chariots.

This is the second year in a row that I have taken my children to the Fourth of July event featuring the Wheeling Symphony and followed by fireworks on the river. They love it and we plan on going again next year. The Wheeling Symphony does the same show in my hometown on the 3rd of July but is a much better experience at Heritage Port.
