- Josh BrennanJuly 4, 2015I love how it's literally in the neighborhood, it would just be a 10 min walk for me, but when we drive it's only a 3 minutes! Such a beautiful place, don't forget to buy tickets for the mini train!!
- Took my son here to see the place and we ended up becoming members. It is absolutely worth it to be members especially if you have children. It's a place where they can run around and enjoy nature.
- Dorothy Jean ChangJanuar 1, 2016You'll enjoy it more if you absorb the original 1957 mission statement (as posted in the Boddy house)
- K12 IncJuly 5, 2011Did you know? The gardens are home to the largest camellia collection in North America, with more than 34,000 plants. They were first planted by E. Manchester Boddy, who built his estate here in 1937. Mehr erfahren
- Wonderful gardens with lots of winding paths. Membership more than pays for itself by getting in free at other gardens all across the country.
- Rachel KDezember 1, 2018Get your winter tickets to the Enchanted Forest light show walk early. Sells out quickly.
- Kirsten AlanaApril 6, 2019Always arrive early if you want good photos any time of year otherwise the gardens become mobbed with people.

- BeanJanuar 3, 2010Grab a water at the front gate. You'll need it when you're half way to the Boddy House. Great place to let kids run free. Go after Noon to capture the "golden hour" for the best photos.
- Reggie HammondDezember 4, 2009Walk to the Bird Observation Station where hundreds of bird species have been viewed. My favorite are the Canadian geese, ducks and turtles. It's next to the rose garden. Don't miss the camelias!!
- ElizabethDezember 22, 2009Find a quiet spot, and start reading. Best day ever. Come on a free day, even better. Usually it's six bucks, which isn't bad considering you'd otherwise be getting a latte for similar price.
- The ambiance, angus burgers and great for taking a stroll 🚶
- one of my favorite shady places to walk on hot days.

- Mary Slagle EdwardsMai 16, 2013We were told to come in late march/early April to see most of the plants in bloom.
- Natalie MetzgerAugust 29, 2010Not a great place to visit in the summer. Everything is pretty dead. But I imagine it is absolutely stunning in the spring.
