    Beautifully cultivated and designed gardens. Worth multiple trips. The cafe has very good quality, all natural, locally sourced food (and it is delicious). Many of the greens are grown on site.

    Beautiful for a day out. They have a free preview weekend at the beginning of spring, but be prepared for crowds and taking a shuttle bus to parking.

    It’s a nice place to walk around and just relax. Bring a lunch because there are several spots to just sit and enjoy nature. There are a lot of hills so be prepared. Overall a nice experience

    A beautiful area for children as well. Could spend all day here reading, playing in the sand, and watering the plants.

    Worth the drive to see. Lots of lights! There's traffic getting in but once you're in there's plenty of space to move around.

    This place is beautiful...book most of the day if you want to see it all and take lots of pictures. The cafe is great too! Expensive, but delicious!

    On the pricier side for a Botanical garden but there's a lot of variety to see. Check out the Fairy Village for fairy houses made of sticks, I'm not sure which one is Tinker Bell's.
