Fun place to visit any time of year, but in the summer on friday evenings; there are free movies projected on a big blow-up screen in this park! Bring a blanket or lawn chairs and have a great evening strolling through rose beds and watching a movie.

My sister had her outdoor wedding in the rose garden, and it was beautiful. It was on the most perfect, sunny July day (though pushing it temperature wise) that helped capture the beauty of the garden in the pictures. Most weddings from what I gathered have the ceremony in the gazebo they have right near the water (gorgeous background for... More

Roses are my very favorite flower. They are not only beautiful but their fragrance is unbelievable. There are so many different varities of roses, but I never knew that they came in so many beautiful colors. How gorgeous and to have stunning views of Lake Superior as the back drop is breath taking.

The park was pretty and had nice views. The viking ship is kind of dumpy and not really finished. Since it is fall, the roses are gone so it wasn't nearly as pretty as it could be. We did get to see the train pass under us when we were on the bridge. Nice area to get down to the... More

What a gift the Rose Garden is to the community and the traveler. Thank you to all of the volunteers and staff who make this such a beautiful place. It is truly eye-candy for anyone who stops to visit. Do stroll the rest of the park for great views of Lake Superior. [If you want to take pictures, early mornings... More

It is so pretty and so peaceful. I like the walkway that goes through it and walked the whole thing. It is not a long walk but I liked that I could go at my own pace without being in any one's way.
