It was my first time visiting the gardens. It was beautiful and huge!! The staff were all very helpful, and it was relatively easy to navigate. It was a lot of walking, but there were benches in the shade in a number of places if anyone needed to rest. There was a group of 3 restaurants near the conservatory. One was a sit-down restaurant with table service, but the menu was very expensive. The other 2 were cafe style, with plentiful outdoor seating. We had pizza from the Beer Garden, which was the least expensive option- about $15 for a small pizza, more personal size. You aren't allowed to bring food in, and you can't leave the gardens and return without buying a new ticket, so this was really the only option. It is expensive to get in to the gardens, but worth visiting. The conservatory and European water garden were my favorites besides the general flower garden walk and fountains.
Wow, what an amazing experience! We went courtesy of tickets from a friend and ended up getting the annual membership for 5 since we enjoyed it so much and wanted to share the experience with family and friends. Everything was beautiful even during their winter season. We're looking forward to seeing the fountains in action and everything in full bloom when the weather gets nicer. For this time of the year, it was very busy but didn't feel crowded due to size of their grounds. Very rich with history and amenities galore! Lots of food and adult and child beverage choices as well. Very easy to navigate paths and trails for all ages. Excellent signage and maps to navigate your way. The staff were all very friendly and helpful! Highly recommended!
All of the flowers looked great and were well taken care of. There are plenty of paths all over the garden as well as cool fountains. Entering and getting tickets is easy. The only real downside I saw was the no reentry to the park so make sure to bring everything you need. It was a hot day so I took water in and didn't have an issue. There is a restaurant and drink stands are inside.
Superb!! Father's Day out with the family couldn't be more perfect. Very lovely pre-summer day, hot sun, low humidity, light breeze!! The water fountain ⛲"dance" , very entertaining and being downwind could get a bit misty from the spray. Indoor garden pricey, delightful. So many plant species and varieties and all the colors of summer, wonderful! Plan to do a lot of walking, come early stay late. Food was a bit pricey. Bring your own. It's a great place to spend with good people, family and or friends. Kudos to the staff, always pleasant!!
Beautiful every season of the year. You will not be disappointed. Initially we did a quick trip to visit not necessarily planning to return. However, we enjoyed it so much that we decided to get a year membership. Appreciated that our one time entrance fee that day could be used towards our yearly membership. Quality musician performances are an added bonus when relaxing for a bite to eat and drink at their outdoor restaurant seating.
First time visiting. The gardens were beautiful! I highly recommend. Lots of walking, but plenty of shade for cover. The staff were helpful and plentiful. There were also restaurants since you cannot bring food into the area. They were predictably expensive but otherwise good.
Amazing Amazing!!! 2 hours in NOT enough! Please leave ample time for you to explore this amazing massive 1,100 acre garden. Just so amazing. So absolutely well kept i want to return everyday! Also month to month it looks so beautiful and different. So amazing and so worth it.
Went here on a bus trip and we had the perfect weather to be outside! This place is filled with so much to see, it is just so peaceful walking through rows and rows of plants. Beautiful layout.
As a lover of history and architecture, the Pierre Du Point house was my love! I admire the preservation of this historic building and seeing the history of the property.
There was construction occurring, I did see what it was but I fear it will take away from its history, but we shall wait and see. Cannot wait to return.
