It's a very good place to enjoy nature as they have managed to create different type of environment like prarie, forest, wetlands etc. Tram tour not worth it. Also entry fee is little bit on higher side.
Beautiful place. Every time we go we find more to explore and see.
We visit the arboretum several times a week and walk the trails. It's quite a relaxing atmosphere. We also enjoy eating at the restaurant.
Illumination lights are outstanding. Entire place is a treasure
If you love the outdoors and plants, this is the place for you.
They have a massive collection of the world's plants and a huge plot of land full of fun places to explore.
There are usually some awesome events going on at all different times of the year.
Good for all ages.
A friend recommended I visit this place for the trolls after hearing about my daughters recent obsession with giants. We were not disappointed! This place is massive, we were here for several hours and did not cover everything. The children's garden alone took us several hours to go through. We loved it all! The natural playground was awesome! The kids loved it all, too. We had a lot of fun walking around and seeing the lego exhibits and going on a troll hunt. We live in a neighboring state and it was well worth the 2.5 hour drive.
A true gem. This place has evolved some I came to look at the trees back in high school. This is a full fledged nature center with information and exhibits for all ages, not to mention the wonderful greenery and walking paths. You went even know you're in suburbia. A bit on the pricey side though.
A green area super well maintained, with very old trees, a beautiful library and a good restaurant.
Beautiful place. They have a great area for children also. Highly recommended.
I love the Arboretum. We have been members for several years and especially enjoy seeing the seasons change. The children's garden is fun, but there's so much more to explore.
Pleasant visit, liked the trails and tree udentification
For families with kids, the playground is probably the best attraction. We enjoy it immensely. Overall it is very nice place to take a stroll in the forest and the ginko cafe is very good.
Probably the best outdoors location in Chicago Metro area. At least one that's easy to get to!
We loved hiking the West Side today; Lake Marmo was beautiful! So thankful The Morton Arboretum is open again. We had a wonderful 2 hour hike as a family!
Love the Arboretum! Did a running tour, which included some history and tree education.
I fell in love, literally, fell in love with my soulmate at this place. The view is enchanting, the people are amazing. So much to see and enjoy. The air smells amazing and it'll make you never want to leave.
First time there. Sad of rest room in disrepair, had to enter other bldg for access. People i met said have seen more light displays previous visits... Paths could have been more salted...
Beautiful place. The Tram tour was very informative and relaxing. Nice family activity!
An escape from the hustle and bustle of modern life. The arboretum is beautiful in every season. Plan on spending the day here, there's lots to see. There's a cafe for lunch. It's worth the price of admission. Get a membership if you live in the Chicagoland area and visit anytime.
Had a magical time hunting trolls with my son. We sure love our beautiful Arboretum!
Very nice and large park. Plenty of things to do. Good scenery.
This is a wonderful place to visit. Friendly people. Great place for a picnic
Beautiful and well-managed park. Loved the origami exhibit currently there.
Went to see the Enchanted Railroad! Awesome display!
Beautiful experience! I have been enjoying the Arboretum since 1955, every time my experience is different.
Have been trying to renew my membership on line for three weeks. Sent messages to the coordinator, website master and anyone else that would listen. I would think a 501C3 entity would have a better system to take donations.
I always love visiting the arboretum. It is always changing! They always have awesome summer art displays.
It's a good place for trees lovers, but they don't have many blooming trees and flowers. Nice and big place for walk and jogging, but I like Botanic Garden more. But if you live in he Western suburbs, Botanic Garden is far.
Love it going to get another pass for the year !! I ve never road bike out there but certainly this year God willing
Extensive collection and many events. Great gift shop.
Not sure why I paid $50 for myself and my family to walk in the woods.
Great place to get away and have a long walk in the forest while also learning more about the plants around you.
Many attractions. Excellent volunteer opportunities!
Surprised by live music in visitors center! Troll exhibit by Danish artist was fun, intriguing, and time well spent. Great message behind the work. Children's garden and water was amazing. Played for hours.
This place is the paradise on the earth. I fell in love the first time I visited it. No words, to describe it, I can only say God is wonderful.
Beautiful and well kept. Very friendly staff. Lovely visit. Did the tree light walk. Was cold out, but warming stations that sold hot drinks and fires through out the walk was really nice.
My daughter loved the troll hunt. Lovely area will come back again.
Great place to spend a nice relaxing day at. get out and enjoy the hiking.
Beautiful art, Great place to admire Nature's beauty.
Always awesome, with lots of activities throughout the year, good cycling, picnic and walking
Went to the light show and had a good time. Would recommend seeing the light show when there is snow to get a better effect
Lovely nature establishment... can spend a whole day here with the woman.
Probably the most beautiful place in illinois. You could easily spend days exploring this place and getting acquainted with the beauty of nature that is quickly fading in this state. Staff are always knowledgeable without being overly visible to distract from the main attraction, which is the beautiful landscape.
Saw the Christmas lights which were ok. The hugging trees were great. Surprise gift for children who spotted the "glowman" were light up bracelets which did not work. When we asked for ones that did, the folks behind the counter were very rude and said no.
Great place for nature lovers, runners, bikers, hikers, families, and sight seeing!
There is never a bad season to visit, and the adult only activities they have are fantastic for those who are not family oriented.
Lots of activities, year round fun. A bit expensive for one time visit, but get a membership and visit a lot, it's worth it. Hiking, biking, troll exhibit currently, lots to do, huge area.
Man made forest with plants and trees from various parts of the world. Good experience to watch it
It's a really good place for family and to bring the kids they have a lot of things to do it's a really good place to bike ride exercise run and walk and they have a nice cafe and a gift shop
I love this place. Year round events and beautiful paths to follow. Come here for an hour or stay all day, you can't go wrong. Currently the origami exhibit is there and it's unbelievable.
Great place to see nature and the light show is great!
We went during pet day, and it was great to see all the dogs enjoying the beautiful weather. The Giants we're well worth going to see as well.
Be prepared to walk, bike or run. Very quiet grounds. Expensive if you are just visiting the Childrens area. (Childrens area fantastic, closes early, has a very cool maze). Research if you are going for a particular reason (i.e. to see flowers blooming) because its nature certain items blppm at certain times.
Huge Arboretum with the best kids section I have seen. Kids can do rope walk through the trees and view beautiful plants throughout.
Went to illuminations. Beautiful place with a lot of extra perks.
