Easy to use and useful . Helpful to have this app available for a first time visitor to the Denver area. This enabled us to arrange for our admission at a convenient time for us and to be able to get admission ahead of groups.

The whole place was amazing. There were so many trees, flowers and bushes. We were in awe. We especially lived the bonsai garden. We were amazed by how many different trees could be bonsais!

More shade than expected so it wasn’t too hot even in late June. A good way to spend time with my teen.

Friendly and well maintained Probably May is a better time for a visit There was a wedding and a retirement farewell which did it affect the visitors

The Gardens were very...

Ron_D, Nov 2025
The Gardens were very good even though many of the outside flowers were dead due to the time of year of our visit. We would like to visit the Gardens again during the Spring or Summer.

Not insanely crowded and very clean. Part of it might have to do with the weather but my wife fell inove with the place. Well done!

A perfect weekend activity!

Have plenty of time to stroll and look . It’s beautiful and takes time to take it all in. You can’t rush it att all

This place can change hours daily. I tried to go three different times while staying in Denver for my birthday trip from Chicago, and unfortunately was never able to go in. I’m very disappointed with the experience especially because I couldn’t get a refund. It put a real damper on my birthday plans!

Lovely Evening Date

Ami_P, May 2025
So lovely. My partner and I went on an overcast, chilly day and it was still a wonderful time. There are so many paths to meander, and there were constantly bird calls all around us. I also love how much water there is on the property. Felt like it was worth my money, and I’d certainly recommend to a friend.

The place in so beautiful...
