Great Botanical space

Lovely public garden with free parking and no entrance fee. Lots of beautiful flower. Abundant birds and other wildlife. Nice walking trails. An Oasis in the middle of suburbia. I was so impressed I went to their website and made a small donation.

I've seen the other reviews and I'm sorry they didn't have that great of a time. My family went with little expectations - just an arboretum, but we got so much more. The walk around ponds gave us great viewing of local birds. The walk...More

underwhelming but nice stroll

It's not that big or interesting. It's a good stroll on a nice day. Walking the entire thing will take about 20-30 minutes. If you are a tourist I would advise against coming. It is not spectacular enough to warrant the drive out. There aren't...More

What a joke!

Not a single flower in bloom! No signs. Trails not marked. Everything overgrown. Boardwalk falling apart. We left when we saw the sign warning of poisonous snakes in area.

Viola N

Can I take a wedding photo shoot here? Not a wedding ceremony, just a photo shoot. Is there any rule or do I need to ask for permission before I go?

I think you can. There's a pretty trellis with pretty flowers around it. It's on the left side after you enter. Also has a little courtyard with some statues that would be nice:)
