Traveler reviews
Robert Sawyer
★★★★★4 months agoThoroughly enjoyed our experience. Felt as if this was a private garden as we walked the grounds. Tranquility. Silence. Our visit was during the offseason so I could only imagine how beautiful it must be when the flowers bloom. Recommended with enthusiasm.
Theo Knights
★★★★★2 weeks agoLovely space to sit down and relax, lots of shaded areas. Lots of nice coffee shops and bakeries nearby. Be sure to come for the market, lots of affordable and handmade crafted goodies. Also a bunch of cute dogs and a nice view of the city. Definitely worth a stop!
