  • Really well organized outdoor botanical garden. Several spots to park to get into this section of the park. There's really only two main trails that get you through all the sections of the gardens, with 14 main stops/highlights.
  • Deceptive. Upon first entering the Botanical gardens, you will come across the Mixed Perennial Garden. When you go past that, it kind of felt like that was it. I had a slight sense of disappointment until I saw the sign pointing to more. In order to see everything here, you would most likely have to spend an hour or two as there are so many trails and hidden gems. Make sure to bring bug spray though. The future sites if the kids garden and rose garden don't seem to be moving forward though as I could see no work either being done or that had been done. Even so, a great place to either bike through fairly quickly, taking photos along the way, or a nice walk and picnic for the day. You can even BBQ in the lower part of the whole park, technically in O'Dell Park (which is in the same wooded area).
  • Beautiful place to visit, there are benches you can stop and grab a seat. More than one to be exact when you walk in the trail down towards the garden at first. There's so many trails. And beautiful flowers if you're coming bring your camera.
  • Lovely garden. Lots of new garden beds added in the last 2 years. Lilacs, lillys, rhododendrons, peonies, and an Acadian planting near the frog pond. A great place to visit while walking in Odell.
  • Great place to go for a walk. Lots of different flora and fona. Well kept.
