Tower Hill Botanic Garden Reviews

Beautiful place to bring a picnic and relax outside

Beautiful place and my first of many visits you come.

Small but beautiful gardens, I arrived a little early in their season so things weren't fuuly in bloom as yet. That said, with walking around, I will definitely be back.

Great gardens. There's even trails into the woods. I didn't venture to far because there were bugs and I didn't have any big spray . Benches and overlooks of the pond as well to just sit and listen to the peacefulness.

I absolutely love this place. It is so beautiful especially during the spring/summer time when the all the plants and flowers blooms. It's absolutely such a beautiful place to visit.

Great place to visit if you can get in with a senior when they have a special. If not it is 16$ & a 7$ charge for your 4 legged friends... The trails are endless and wild metal structures are very unique. I do not recommended buying lunch at the little cafe. It is extremely expensive... average quality, minimal choices on the menu, 10.50 for a and$5 more for grilled chicken...I didn't see the grill, portions were extremely small. The bread on the sandwich was very good and sliced turkey wasn't anything fancy... but the price was..kinda out of this world.. Flowers were very pretty and very well maintained. The atmosphere was very warm, friendly and a great place for a work function or wedding. I hear it's a steep price ranging in the 6-7k dollar mark. A few areas were closed for viewing which was unfortunate but understandable these things happen. One of the exhibition areas (that was closed, but doors opened) had a beautiful aroma of Jasmin. It was such a beautiful sent and brought me back to a memory of being in Sicily. It's a great day for a walk, and picnic lunch. The trails have many benches along the paths for you to take a break and soak up the sun or ''stop and smell the roses''

Beautiful place. We had a great time at the night lights! Cant wait to go back during the summer!

Very beautiful, well maintained garden. Nice place to visit in every season.

Wonderful place to spend the day, great staff and well kept grounds

Beautiful gardens with tons of little details that require multiple visits to take in. I enjoyed my visit as a family outing and everyone was pleased to explore the grounds. I mistakenly sent off trail and ended up partially lost for a few minutes before finding my way back to civilization. The visitors center and gift shop were nice and we'll stocked and offered great views of the area from some strategic seating areas.

What a great hidden oasis in the heart of Massachusetts. Trails and gardens to walk in the summer. Christmas lights and trees in the winter. In door gardens. Classes for all ages. Great place to visit multiple times a year.

Beautiful grounds, gardens always changing and a nice getaway. Restaurant food is good but service is slow. Try to get a patio table for the view.

This place was beautiful!! I have heard of this place over my many years living in NE but, thought it was probably too stuffy for me...I was wrong!! I thoroughly enjoyed my visit here! I came with my Son and grand daughter for my Mother's day treat. We had lunch at the cafe (it was delish and all local and Organic foods)! I never right reviews but felt I needed to this time!

Went for a Christmas light show, it was awesome! Definitely want to check this place out once Spring/Summer rolls around again.

We are members and go fairly often. It never seems too crowded. Always something nice to see. Very nice view and paths through the woods as well as the indoor areas.

Great place to visit and always something happening.

Highly recommend visiting Tower Hill this Holiday season.

Went for the Christmas light display. Cool use of very pretty spaces and the gift shop is great. A little on the tiny side overall

Tower Hill is a beautiful place and I am so pleased that they have a free Friday event on occasion. The botanical gardens are full of information about species native and exotic, and the staff is very friendly.

Beautiful trails and landscaped gardens. Great for sponsored get together. $15 admission per person if visiting individually.

It was our first visit and it absolutely won't be our last. It's a stunning endless garden and it looks like a perfect place for elegant photographs. Weddings, engagement, senior pictures. Absolutely stunning.

The new exhibit, Wind Waves & Light is amazing, I have been to Tower Hill many times before, and enjoy the grounds immensely, but the wind blown moving art installation fascinated me. They made me think, and isn't art supposed to do that. The installation is included in the price of admission.

Really beautiful place with an amazing view of Mount Wachusett. Go for any of the festivals, especially the Winter Reimagined festival in December and January.

How peaceful and exquisite the sights are! We will be back

Beautiful gardens. Nice walk g paths. A do fearful day to spend the day if you love gardening and nature.

Just a magical winter wonderland! A must see for every age! Everyone there was in awe! So much work was put into this by many people, just so beautiful!

Great variety of flora across several acres of gardens. Nice overlook view for al fresco lunch. Not a large menu, but tasty.

Wonderful grounds, lots of woodland paths and great views.

Always a great place for scenic views and wuiet time

What beautiful displays all in natural settings. Loved everything about it.

Went during winter for a concert. Beautiful buildings. Nice little inside gardens.

Winter limits outdoor plantings on large grounds. Christmas / Solstice lighting is fantastic, worth the visit.

Magnificent, since the foliage and sunlight were brilliant. The view from the dining patio was outstanding.

Place is absolutely stunning! A great way to get some fresh air, see beautiful flowers, and be one with nature. Very simple entrance process during COVID with the purchase of online tickets. Definitely will be going again.

Beautiful grounds, every caution taken for safety, and very friendly staff.

Great place to go to take your busy life down a notch.

The Christmas Lights were Beautiful however, The price was a bit step to see

SO MUCH FUN. You should go. It was so nice to walk around outside and even though it's been a late spring, it was beautiful. Finding all of the little sculptures and structures (some great gazebos and an excellent swing) was really fun. There doesn't seem to be that much "to do" that gets you out in nature but this definitely fits the bill. The greenhouses were amazing and it's so interesting to see the different climates that they recreate for the plants. Really lovely time and a great gift shop. I am pretty sure you have to go through a time warp to see the moss steps, but they are worth it. If you have a chance to go, you should!

This place is great for a spring day! There are beautiful flowers, trails, and green houses. You can even bring your dog to take on a walk through the trails!

Winter Re-imagined was spectacular. A little cold this year but its a great place to bring the family or the special someone.

Beautiful indoor and outdoor gardens, lots of water features. Focuses on native and pollinator supporting Flora.

Great place for kids field trips. Even us adults enjoyed!

I cannot recommend this place enough. It's a cure for winters relentless judo-chops to your gentler side. The indoor gardens, the arborium is filled with the hidden smells and calming sights of spring. The gift shop is spectacular and the restaurant is first rate. They offer terrific menu choices and the prices are very reasonable. We can't wait wellspring and summer to enjoy the outside gardens!

Fun. Beautiful Christmas tree displays. Went on a frigid day but the outside walkways were still a delight.

We went to the winter lights event and it was absolutely amazing! A great time to walk around inside and out. You don't go to this event to look at the flowers or plants, you go to look at the lights, which are done very well and are magical! If you're an amateur photographer like me, you will probably expect to spend about 2 hours there. There are some excellent places to take portraits and artsy photos. Overall a fantastic place to go!

What a wonderful place to be. Tower Hill is a lovely public garden to simply be. If you're looking for a plethora of activities and stimuli, then this is not the place for you. It has wonderful walking trails and beautiful plants. Occasionally, there are events, such as food truck lunches or concerts. The food they sell at the in-house restaurant is amazing and very well priced. If you haven't been, going would be a great idea.

Wonder gardens and walk ways. They also have a great activity room for children. Their wind and reflections exhibit is fantastic.

Beautiful nature at its finest. Great place for rest and relaxation

Such a great place to walk around and enjoy nature, indoors and out

I went here for their Christmas lights display, and it did not disappoint. The staff was friendly and the event was very well managed.

We love Tower Hill! Absolutely beautiful gardens and wooded paths. Views of Wachusett Mountain and Reservoir.

During Covid you need to make a reservation. The yearly pass is really worth it, as you will want to go back during the different seasons to see the blooms and plants.

Went for gnomevember. It was super cute! I am bummed that I didn't get tickets for the Christmas event.

Nice place for those who appreciate plants. You can visit it in 1 or 2 hours.

Nice green place. Nothing too fancy but worth visiting if you're in the area.

We love the Botanic garden, the Holiday season brings out an awesome light display and the infamous igloo. I'd recommend getting passes from the library first to save some $$$.

We've been here many times over the years, we're also members. They have many events scheduled throughout the year, and the grounds are always clear and plain. It's a beautiful place for weddings, and it takes photos. The employees are normally friendly, and helpful. Be careful if you come here during annual event however, because the crowds can be challenging.

The Christmas lights display is always fantastic - an excellent family holiday activity!

Winter Reimagined - beautifully decorated. A great experience for the whole family!

This place is beautiful. A great spot for a wedding or other event!

Went to see the holiday lights. It was impressive! Truly a lot of hard work went in to the displays. A great way to spend the evening with the family!

Beautiful, breath taking gardens and views. Easy walking paths and place to sit and just enjoy the gardens

Beautiful lights display, went just after it snowed.
