The grounds here are very nice, and this place does have a cool history to it. I have to say I was a little disappointed, I ve heard a lot about this place on tv and online, but it was fairly small compared to other botanical gardens I ve been to, and didn t have as many species of plants as I expected. I thought I would be here for hours, but I was done in a hour and a half and that s me taking my time.

I absolutely loved our time here. Our kids got to go on a sc6hunt that kept them soooooo entertained so we could actually look around at everything. The fairy garden was so cute. We even found d a secret little garden to have a picnic. We will definitely be coming back!

It is relaxing to see all of the beautiful foliage and flowers the Lord created for our enjoyment. People who work in the gift shop are always very friendly. I am so glad we have such a place close by so we can visit.

This place is absolutely beautiful. The paths are all covered with gorgeous vegetation and everything is meticulously landscaped. The buildings are charming and perfectly situated. I could visit here daily. I highly recommend visiting.

Beautiful grounds to take a walk around. They had live music when I was there and it was borderline magical. I would totally go again. It was a bit smaller than I expected, but there are 1.5 miles of hiking trails available. The slower you go, the more you see! Seems like they have special events on Thursday nights in the summer, check it out!

Beautiful garden! Admission was $9 and I was a little disappointed the buildings were closed but the desert greenhouse was open and was incredibly beautiful and had some impressive cactus. The art and visual flow was very peaceful and you could easily spend several hours here. Theres even a mini nursery where you can buy flowers and plants you see along the trails.

The people here are amazing and very friendly. The gardens are beautiful and well worth a trip to go see. I am confident that events hosted at this location would be something to write home about.

Beautiful garden. Only issue is my wife got inspired and had me stop at two green houses on the way home. Now I'm planting two trees and making a new flower bed lol. So enjoy at your own risk.

It was later into the season, and the place was still beautiful with flowers blooming all over. Cant wait to see it in spring next year. This was our first time coming. But definitely wont be the last

There are so very many reasons to love this place. From the little fairy house to the many cacti to the stray cats. Absolutely amazing place even in the bitter cold. I plan on writing a far more extensive review once I can feel my fingers!

Beautiful grounds, beautiful architecture! Great place to get inspired, visit with family, and have a relaxing day. And their event schedule looks great, so it looks like we'll be returning!

Tranquil and relaxing gem. Lovingly tended flowers and trees are on display. The castle is a must see for any visit. We are members, and it's worth it to see all four seasons in this peaceful garden.

Yew Dell is a lovely garden! They showcase the beauty of native plants by aesthetic arrangement. The structures are on their grounds are equally charming and make a great backdrop for photos or weddings. They often host events that include: dog-permitted days, plants for sale, and horticulture seminars.

Yew Dell was gorgeous! My daughter and I had a great time. The Fairy Forest Scavenger Hunt was so much fun. There are ample places to picnic. The staff was friendly and sweet. I'm looking forward to my next visit.

A very well known Botanical Garden on the international scale, but one of the best kept secrets of Oldham County. What is it like? BREATHTAKING!!! Even my three-year-olds can't wait to go there again, and I share the same sentiments. Become a member, but if you can't, then the admission price is well worth it.

This is one of my favorite places to attend and coordinate events. The beautiful gardens, well planned indoor facilities, and terrific staff make for lovely events.

What an absolute treasure of Kentucky! 60 acres of some of the finest exhibits of native as well as imported plants and trees you'll find anywhere in Kentucky and beyond. Almost every species has a tag or plaque so as to be able easily identify which plant you are enjoying. The grounds are clean and well maintained. Admission is very reasonable with children and senior rates. There is a large pavilion and facilities that may be rented for receptions and other social occasions. We'll return with our hiking shoes and walking sticks to explore the outlying hiking trails, although much of the main areas are handicap accessible and easy walking. This is an absolute treasure for anyone who loves the outdoors. Can't wait until spring to enjoy the more than one thousand tulip bulbs planted in many flowerbeds!!!

Nice landscapes and quirky gift shop. the receptionist and grounds crew were all pleasant and friendly hearted. Located not to far from downtown lies the beautifully maintained garden offering wonderful architecture mixed with wildlife and unique ornaments. My time of visit was around Christmas and they offered a seasonal exhibit for kids and families. If you ask the gift shop to participate in a scavenger hunt you can keep the little ones busy while you have time to escape big city life and Take in the sights and sounds of nature. Enjoy.

This place is a real gem that many people do not know about, but they should. The grounds, history and botanicals make for a very enjoyable afternoon. On Sundays during parts of the year, they have "Hounds on the Grounds" where you can bring your dog.
