Great Place to Visit

A great place to visit. I pushed my disabled husband through the grounds on a mostly-paved path. We both appreciated the ambiance and beauty of the foliage and enjoyed the Japanese house.

Beautiful Thanksgivingtime

This is my first visit in the fall! It’s a beautiful walk even in a rainy day. The new gift shop is a destination visit. It’s worthwhile to have an annual pass if you choose to visit a time or two.
