What parents say
Love this place! We spent several hours here a few months back! Every time we got too hot, we took a walk thru the rainforest and cooled off in the wonderful misty rain (mist machines set up in a bamboo rainforest).
My family have spent few hours in the garden. I was pleasantly surprised. It’s a unique garden for sure. It has that antique vibe; old gardens somewhat forgotten. The place is very clean ( maybe except the bathrooms, need a little TLC). The gardens have lots of shade so it’s perfect even on those sunny days.
I cannot begin to tell you how magical this place is! It is a beautiful piece of land tucked away downtown. There are gorgeous mature trees and vines providing the perfect amount of shade and sunshine. The first place you come to on the property after check in/gift shop is a dress up room with an amazing selection.
What a magical place for small children 1-8 to go! Our small daughter that is 1.5 years old had a blast running around and exploring. She did not want to leave when it was time to leave (stayed to close). She absolutely loved the pirate ship, and the sand area and dragon!
