"Outstanding holiday display... This was a great way to end the season and start Epiphany, Three Kings Day. We're looking forward to visiting these gardens later this year (to see the actual gardens)."

"Wedding venue was the reason for my visit to this great place!! As you drive to get to this destination, you'll drive down this quaint driveway that twists and turns!! At the end you get to the parking lot that seems adequate! There was a wedding going on so I'm sure there's more than enough parking for the usual crowd of people!!! There's an entrance fee for people to see the attractions... I'm not exactly sure how much but I did overhear some decent size amounts but not sure what you get when you pay admission. As far as this place as a wedding venue it was awesome plenty of beautiful places to take pictures!! There was a tent set up and that worked perfectly! There was enough room to put down a moveable dance floor and still have enough room for all the tables and food!! If you are reading this and you enjoyed this review please do me a favor and like this review. If not that's cool too!! I hope you are reading this and doing great and feeling good!! I hope you are having a great day and have a even better upcoming weekend!! If it is the weekend I hope you are enjoying it and you have a great upcoming week!! Thanks for reading!!!"

"This was a beautiful piece of property! It is very natural-looking and has lots of native plants. We were a little underwhelmed by the Japanese garden, but loved the variety of ferns we saw. We would definitely return, just for the chance to grab one of the many seats and catch up on my reading. We found a swing inside/under a large tree; it almost was not visible from the walkway."

"We visited this beautiful garden on Saturday and were impressed by the sensory garden, and the train garden with 3 different trains running at one time. The autumn crocuses were in glorious full bloom (see photos) and the blue bottle gentian (photo) was also lovely. We had lunch at their cafe and the carrot cake drizzled with a caramel sauce was delicious! Our second visit and we will return:"

"Beautiful gardens filled with bright flowers and wildlife. Exceptional place for both adults and children. Everyone enjoyed seeing the model train going through a very elaborate miniature structure of mountains and bridges. An inside viewing area lets you watch wildlife from large windows, this was comfortable and amusing."
