No matter the time of year, there is always something beautiful and unique at Meijer Gardens. My grandson used to keep me there for hours, and he and my granddaughter still enjoy a long visit.

This was a great place that we visited but we did not allow enough time to see it all. We toured the front gardens and the inside plant exhibits and part of the sculptures before we ran out of time. The grounds were beautiful with the flowering trees and scrubs and the tulips. What a great place.

This park for the most part is set outdoors among beautiful landscaping. We took a tour, initially to find out about the different sculptures.

We took the trolley from downtown out to the Gardens; it was in October, so besides the Artfest displays, they had a great fall display. Small admission price, reasonably utilitarian restaurant on site, with walk-up, check-out service, but nice!

Was not sure what to expect when we planned to add this attraction. We were not disappointed. The Winter weather held on in Michigan a long time. So the Blooms were scarce. The people of Grad Rapids are lucky to have this place near buy.

Went to a gala here last week and the facility was spacious and very elegant. I've coordinated a few events here in the past and the facility and workers are accomidating and professional and really know how to help.

This is a great place for anyone! My husband and I were greeted by very enthusiastic volunteers, which was a fantastic way to begin our journey. We went to a little desk just inside for a map and general information about the facilities. A few butterflies were still flying around in the conservatory so we decided to visit there first....

It was busy but worth the price. It rained so we had to ride a tour bus to see the gardens. Would like to go back when flowers are in bloom. Think it would be beautiful.
