Beautiful place for a peaceful serene walk .. take that book which you wanted to read from long time (far away from daily chaos that’s surround the modern world) and come sit next to the bridge or the pond and just read ..
Pretty place to walk around and enjoyed the large lily pad pond. Lot of paths and trails, some elevated. No admission fee was a plus.
Totally recommended. It’s a beautiful place to walk and have an amazing time in nature. Parking 🅿️ available, clean restrooms 🚽 visitor center.
This Garden is so gorgeous, a little loud bc of the highway, but we still have the garden. I read on the property that the association of roads or what have you wanted to build the highway through the garden and destroy it. But Leonard J Buck invited them to come and see his garden.
It is worth it, please visit it. It’s free, you can make a donation recommended 6$ for adults and 3$ for kids or seniors. There are 2 restrooms, made to be ecco friendly, and refilled water bottles station.
A very small, uncrowded park, shady, picturesque. The park uses the rocky landscape very skillfully, rockeries are planted, winding gravel paths with stairs are laid through the park. There are two parking lots, which had free spaces on Sunday. You can get a map of the park at the visitor center. There are also restrooms there. Unfortunately, the proximity of Highway 287 creates constant noise, which prevents you from enjoying nature to the fullest.
