Pleasant and very nice hilly garden with good sculpture art. Parking places can be tight on a busy day, plan accordingly.

This is a great arboretum. Walking paths, water features and enough variety to make every season interesting. A deer fence was recently added and a few new paths created. I'm looking forward to seeing new plants thrive! There are also programs like the Chrysanthemum show. It was amazing!!

This is such a lovely place to spend 15 minutes or 2 hours (as we did on Saturday). The walking paths are well maintained, a good amount of benches to stop and sit, wonderful sculptures and beautiful plants and trees. A hidden gem!

Despite my visit being during the winter season, the beauty and charm of this place were undeniable. The arboretum's serene paths were adorned with beautiful artwork, creating a captivating fusion of nature and artistic expression.

One of the highlights of my visit was the dog-friendly atmosphere at Laurelwood Arboretum. It was heartwarming to see furry companions happily exploring the trails alongside their owners. The arboretum provides a welcoming and peaceful environment for both humans and their canine friends to enjoy the beauty of nature together.

However, it's important to note that parking at Laurelwood Arboretum is limited and tends to fill up quickly. To ensure a stress-free visit, I recommend arriving early or considering alternative transportation options.

Families with children will find Laurelwood Arboretum to be a fantastic destination. The paths are easily accessible, making it a breeze for little ones to explore and enjoy nature. It's a great opportunity for kids to connect with the outdoors while appreciating the fascinating artwork scattered throughout the arboretum.

As I left Laurelwood Arboretum, I couldn't help but eagerly anticipate my next visit in the spring. I am excited to witness the transformation as nature awakens and reveals its vibrant colors. Whether you're a nature enthusiast, an art lover, or simply seeking a serene escape, Laurelwood Arboretum offers an enchanting experience for all.

Such a beautiful location! Even with a decent amount of visitors you have moments of feeling so secluded. The trails are all cleanly and the nature is nonstop throughout the arboretum!

What a beautiful surprise this arboretum is.
They created cute trails and beautiful spaces. From statues to beautiful trees and landscapes to ponds creeks and wildlife.
You need 2 hours to enjoy it and take time to follow every small trail it might lead you to a charming spake created with good taste .
For the small size of this arboretum it offers a lot!
If you visit and if you enjoy it don't forget to make a donation there.

Exquisite park with sculpture walk and garden stops along the premises. Very well-composed with audio self tour. Visitor's center very well-appointed witb maps and botany info. The greeter we met was an absolute delight and fountain of knowledge. Will visit again especially wjem rhododendrons are in bloom as it's a garden specialty.
