Tranquil setting. Quiet, winding paths. Spring fed ponds. Colorful waterfowl in abundance. Beautiful flowers (of course).

We visited earlier this month,right before mother's day. The garden is beautiful,with many paths but not so big that we felt overwhelmed. I agree that a map would be nice so we could know where we were going in the park. Only a small fee. More
