This was a very unique stop and worth it for that reason. We paid to enter the farm area and walk amongst the lavender - $8 per adult. Everything in the shop looked (and smelled) amazing, but it is pretty expensive.

This was our first time to visit a working lavender farm and it was truly breathtaking to see all the purple flowers in abundance. However, everything about this place is crazy expensive! They charged $8 each for us to walk in the field and look at the flowers. The store was elegantly decorated and sold many different lavender products but we were shocked at how expensive everything was. I got a 12 ounce bottle of lotion and it was $23 (not even certified organic.) My friend got a small cup of vanilla/lavender ice cream and it $8. We were glad we came here but the price of the whole experience was over our budget. Be prepared to see and hear lots of bees flying amongst the flowers. It’s normal and to be expected. We did not have any problems with the bees and we loved photographing them but we did see a young child run to her mom crying that she got stung. They had several porta-potties in the fields and they were actually clean. They also had hand sanitizer in them. We also noticed they had u-pic available but we didn’t do it and we didn’t see a sign with the cost.

My family and I vacationed on Washington Island for the week during the 2023 music festival. Fragrant Isles was a tourist location we sought to visit. I bought tickets for my family, six (including two children), for $210, $35 each. We have traveled extensively and in the past toured coffee plantations, vineyards, and banana farms from CA to Puerto Rico to Ecuador. The tour guide not only misinformed us, we found the correct information online, but the tour lasted maybe 30 minutes, and there was no tasting, trying of the product she was pushing to sell, etc... It felt overpriced for what it was. The gate fee of $8 would have been sufficient as anyone was welcome to join the tour conversation who was on the field that day. There was nothing special about the $35 dollar, 30-minute tour. I think it is a great addition to the island but they could use some tweaking on the pricing and their offerings, and value proposition.

I last visited the lavender farm in July 2019. At the time, there was no admission fee to walk around the lavender field. We freely walked around the grounds and ate lunch on the terrace overlooking the rows of lavender in bloom. I wrote a glowing review of my visit. However, I recently paid a return visit to the farm and they have now instituted a rather onerous admission fee just to walk around the grounds. $8 for adults. The fee applies even if you want to eat lunch at their cafe. (A visit to the gift shop is still free) I find this ridiculous and will skip this stop on my next visit to Washington Island. There are many more WOW things to see on the island that are free.
