Cox Arboretum Review

Very well kept up, and beautiful! Lots of people usually.

Beautiful well maintained park. Lots of folks here taking photos. There are nice little nature trails too

I love this place it's so peaceful there. We bring our clients there when the weather permits.

Love this place. Great park to walk around, always have beautiful landscaping.

Great place to take your women too! Great for kids too!

Walked around the park and climbed the tree house. It was beautiful. They also have a butterfly house.

Beautiful landscape. I love to walk around and take nature photos. Great for events, too.

Having spent a summer working on staff here, it is always nice to see it getting better and better every year. Truly tax dollars well spent!

We came for the butterfly garden. It was tiny and there were two butterflies in it. No cafe or gift shop. Not a great place in the summer when it s hot as there is very little shade. Especially skip if you have small children or elderly people with you. Definitely a waste of a drive.

Great place to get out for a walk and enjoy a but of nature. Nice easy walking trails.

The grounds are very well kept and peaceful. The butterfly house is a must see esp later in the summer when they are in high quantity

Excellent park!! So many trails and flowers and wildlife to see. Loved the ponds and the tower!

Really beautiful and if you are looking for a way to give back they have a ton of volunteer opportunities

One of my favorite Metro Parks in the area to go visit. Many trails (paved and unpaved) around the park to walk around on. The tree house is one of the characteristic features that sets this aside from other parks. A great spot to take portraits or photos of nature, and the grounds here are very well kept.

If you enjoy nature, seeing different plants, flowers and trees, this is the place for you. They have hiking trails and walking paths, in addition to special events that they host.(most free)

It s well kept. Reminds me of my neighbors yards. Just a pretty place for people to go walk around. If you like a park with natural plants and trees that s cookie cutter and looks like someone s yard then it s for you. They did mark the plants and trees and had a sign marking a tree that was killed by emerald ash borers to inform public which is a plus.

Paved and unpaved paths give a nice mixture of walking options and points of interest. The welcome center is beautiful and the staff is very friendly.

I love it there. There is a tree tower that I climb every time I go. Beautiful flowers.

Great walking trails and places to take nice pictures

What a well maintained park. Plenty of space and beautifully maintained flowers.

Such a beautiful tranquil place for walking, or having lunch, or for hosting a wedding. I just had the pleasure of officiating a wedding in the beautiful Edible Garden. I have officiated many weddings at Cox Arboretum in several different locations and it is always perfect.

Wow. . I love this place. Very nice place to walk.

wonderful place for the whole family. I enjoy taking my kids here just wish they had a little more for younger kids.

Very pleasant experience. Loved the cleanliness and overall layout of the park. Very relaxing and beautiful.

Gorgeous park. Great handicap accessible trails. Good parking. Well worth a visit.

Great place. Quiet. Can commune with nature or learn about it. Lots of classes available.

I absolutely love this place. There are so many different outdoor things to enjoy. Bring your family and make this an all day outing, on a nice, sunny day. Or if you want and need to just take some time out for yourself, come here and take a little walk around. It is very peaceful and has a beautiful scenery.

What an absolute gem of an area! A true "naturalist" playground. Open fields, fantastic well-marked trails, a butterfly haven and a pond teeming with turtles and fish. Treat yourself to spending some real time here!

A great place to take photos. Professional photographers: please get a permit! It's not too expensive and it helps all of us to work well with the park.

This is such a beautiful park! We love to go and walk the trails with our kids, bring food and have a picnic, and also look for new plants to add to our gardens. Our favorites are the butterfly house and tree tower.

I've practically raised my family at this park. I love everything about it.

Absolutely beautiful park. My favorite place to walk my dog.

Best place for pictures! Sooo many different places you can use for absolutely beautiful set ups. Lots of wonderful trails for hiking too.

So many opportunities to watch nature. Family friendly

This place is awesome! Has a cool tree tower, small ponds with turtles and fish, flowers, a butterfly house. Just a lot of cool things. Great place to take the kids too!

Very nice park. Picturesque and quiet with exceptionally well maintained paths.

Although a little disappointed everything was closed except one bathroom... Seen lots of turtles

One of the best metro parks around. Many wide open spaces for running around with kids and family picnics. Beautiful views from the tower and a wonderful koi pond.

Love it!!! So peaceful and Beautiful there. GOD created everything and such the greatest artist! GLORY BE TO GOD! Blessed Mother in Heaven and PRAISE be to JESUS CHRIST

Very nice and clean park. I would highly recommend it.

Walking in nature. Education specialist from Kincaid's music.

Very beautiful and lots of people and things to look at

The grounds were beautiful and we enjoyed visiting with family as we strolled through the various areas of the park. The visitor center was still closed according to covid safety precautions.

It's very pretty and good for talking walks around the park and there are trails to take too.

Very nice complex and a good place to picnic. Visitor center also nice.

Is a nice park, but it can be very crowded during weekends. Certain parts of the park have been left unattended and are full of weeds. The butterfly garden is not kept up.

My ultimate favorite place to be regardless of season. Lots of trails, critters, and flowers! It's just so peaceful; it's a great place for photographers!!

The trails are wonderful if u go in the spring and summer. Nice place to play pokemon and enjoy the weather

Always a beautiful place to experience the outdoors. Sometimes a little confusing following the trail map, but you can figure it out. Lots of room to maintain social distance once you're on the trails. Overall a great break from quarantine.

I wish I knew to bring a picnic! I really could have spent ALL day lounging in the different parts of the gardens if I had snacks with me. It is a beautiful place with tons of walking and can hold events from birthdays to weddings. It was very dog friendly and had plenty of space to spread out form the other goers. We will be back for sure.

Beautiful park. Butterfly house. Great place for an outdoor wedding.

Beautiful park with beautiful gardens, ponds, watch tower, butterfly house, visitor center, convention hall, hiking trails, bird watching areas. Great place for occasional photography like wedding, prom and so on.

A beautiful spot near Dayton. Amazing trails and parkland

One of my favorite places. Great photo shoot location

My daughter fell in love with this place. We will be coming back soon.
