💬 What Visitors Say
- Visit in Spring to experience the vineyard section when grapes are ripe and ready to eat directly from the vines—a unique seasonal highlight not available year-round.
- The venue is perfect for ages 1-5 with free play and exploration opportunities, but older children (like 9-year-olds) also love the storybook-themed houses and interactive creek. Plan accordingly based on your child's age.
- Book field trips well in advance to secure your preferred date, as the venue offers structured educational programs and the gardens are popular for group visits.
- The venue allows visitors to wade in a small creek on the grounds—bring water shoes or be prepared for wet feet, especially appealing for younger children.
- Contact Kaitlyn or the staff directly with questions or special requests—reviewers specifically praised the staff's responsiveness and helpfulness in customizing visits.
