Greenwood Gardens

"Love love love these gardens. I was there for their creative day and did Plein-Air painting in oil and lots of ink drawings. The gardens are beautiful, well maintained and the staff is very friendly. It's a historic site, so please be respectful of their rules and enjoy the beautiful space."

"Upon arrival, I didn't know what to expect but I was thoroughly surprised by how unique and whimsical the garden truly is. Along the estate's winding path, you are gifted with these breathtaking moments that inspire imagination. You truly need to soak in all of the details to truly appreciate all of the intention and craft that went into this garden. Whether it's comical stone statues, colorful ceramic chunks in the walls, or the crowing of a rooster in the not so distant background, you feel like you're in a totally different world. I absolutely loved the fairytale-like structures of the Summerhouse and Teahouse. I felt like I was on an adventure, finding new secrets tucked away in every corner. The estate itself is very well maintained, and the staff were very friendly. Even as we entered the parking lot, the staff member said how special this garden was and they were right. Although it isn't necessarily historical, it does a great job at transporting you to another world. The significance of the space is the space itself as it tries to weave together all these aesthetics and ideas. Reminders: There is a bathroom on the premise near the Main House; there are no bathrooms along the path. There is a modest gift shop with local honey, and horticultural themed goods. As you walk from the parking lot to the Main House don't forget to look at the cottages and the ceramic numbered tiles on them - they're super cool!"

"This place is a hidden gem in our busy world. The gardens are absolutely beautiful and serene. Taking a walk down the stone steps and towards the pond and around the ground buildings is very peaceful. Highly recommend visiting this place"

"it’s a pretty nice place overall and good staff too. just not overwhelmingly mind blowing as i had expected it to be. but it’s not bad. i wouldn’t go again just because i feel like i wasn’t blown away by it. but nice to see the ducks on the pond. also no access to the building some days so we couldn’t see the living spaces which was a bummer."

"Pretty cool place! Nothing mind blowing to see but the garden is well maintained and very clean. The staff was wonderful and extremely eager to explain the history behind the place. Reasonably priced and worth the time to check out if you have nothing else going on for the weekend. Lots of pretty scenes here for photography and portraits."
