Since there was a frost earlier some of the flowers outside were gone. But the rock gardens and ponds are so well taken care of. Inside they have plants you wouldnt expect to see in Wyoming. Kids love the fairy garden. The store is fun!

I cannot sing highly enough about the gardens. This is a must see. The childrens garden is amazing. It offers something for everyone. Have a picnic. Relax and read a book or just relax. Best of all is it is free. They have the lake near. Wonderful walking paths. Explore the grounds. This is a must see.

A beautiful experience! I went yesterday around 12. I wish I could remember the name of the Lady at the front desk, her attitude and smile made my day, especially when she said they were growing bananas in the Garden! She was so lovely. The place is beautiful, I loved the first floor (Tropical conservatory and water feature), seeing all the plants that grow in tropical environment and the beautiful animals. Thanks for this amazing place.

Staff was friendly and informative. What a neat location! This place is such a neat spot and the kids area is FANTASTIC. Bonus points for being FREE! There was a yarn bombing event when we visited which was an extra special treat! We had so much fun walking the grounds.

The Botanic Gardens are such a beautiful place to spend the afternoon. Its free, and theres a lot to see! There are three floors in the main building, and a couple of outdoor areas to see and spend time in. I think this is a great place to take your kids or whole family. They have great hours and wonderful staff. I highly recommend the Cheyenne Botanic Gardens.

We so enjoyed walking around the gardens. We enjoyed seeing your botanical names of the plants. We enjoyed your hospitality and took much pleasure in how you addressed us as guests first time to the gardens. I enjoyed walking bare foot in the snow on the garden roof. Such a pleasure to enjoy good people and good places.

Stopped here on our short visit and enjoyed it so much! Indoors is pretty with all the plants and water features. My favorite was the grounds outside. The different gardens (rose, plants in urns, variety of trees, meditation garden and small fountain) were really nice to wander through and spend time watching bees, butterflies and birds. Highly recommend... Oh, and its free!

We always have so much fun looking around. The kids love the fairies and the fish! I love that its handicap accessible and the volunteers are always friendly. The water bottle filling water fountain is pretty cool and I love that I dont have to bring two bottles or buy one there! We will continue to visit and support the Cheyenne Botanic Gardens.

One of my favorite places to go when I am visiting family in Cheyenne wyoming. I love all of the different plants and the size of the fish in the ponds! My nephew loves to come here all of the time so its great to enjoy something i love with him. The banana trees had bunches of fruit and the air was very nice. Overall I recommend everyone visit their local botanical gardens. I even got the inspiration to grow a monstresa plant in my house! They have rotating showcases and kids entertainment as well. We saw a bonsai exhibit that was very interesting.

Beautiful childrens garden area--not just for children! Lots of outdoor area to walk around.Inside part that is open right now is rather small during covid and difficult to socially distance. Also access to the bathroom is limited right now due to only one way to get to it, through conservatory.

A beautiful new addition to the recreation areas of Cheyenne. The building is spectacular on the inside and out, as well as beautiful plants on the inside and out. It already looks amazing, and I believe will be better yet once more plants are added.

This is a great place just to relax and to take your lunch to eat. I like the fish and the birds in the Grand Conservatory. I could spend all day here just to escape for awhile.

Great experience! 3 stories to explore inside. The plant life was beautiful! Beautiful layout. Small fairy garden downstairs that our daughter loved. Upstairs, there were a few classrooms that explained how light shines through a claidoscope but only open on certain days. We were there on a Sunday and it was closed. Some beautiful art in the hallways. A gorgeous outdoor area/overlook on the 3rd floor.

What a wonderful experience. Such an exceptional selection of exotics in a small, but beautiful facility. Wyoming can be proud of this garden! A real banana tree with a bunch of bananas and a Choi pond that is perfect. The blossoms scent from the citrus tree added a special effect to our experience. The conversation with the host was great.

Here are a few pictures I took of the interior of the Conservatory at Cheyenne Botanical Gardens. This was my first visit since the opening of the Conservatory and I am impressed. This is a quality facility that all of Cheyenne should be proud of. Congratulations to Shane, the staff and all the volunteers who made this facilty possible.

What a lovely place. I found the childrens garden to be fun. Children are allowed to wade into the small pond there if they want to and seems to be a great learning experience for kids. Interesting living roof. They do not charge an entrance fee but you can leave a donation.

The redone building is a very beautiful place. They’re planning to put a lot more in, but it’s already the perfect place to go for Wyoming’s terribly long winter season. I’d definitely recommend coming here for their lovely fairy gardens, different biomes, and amazing features.

The Cheyenne botanic gardens is really a little piece of heaven in Cheyenne. They have a little something for everybody, from the giant indoor area that houses a large variety of tropical plants with beautiful sculptures to the outdoor Rose garden, or the peace garden. Highly recommended you visit here!

Living in Wyoming isn’t easy. Come escape the cold here. The indoor gardens are warm and the greenery is sure to make you feel better. There is a koi pond. Outside, there are also many attractions. A fine place to visit for all ages.

Beautiful place to go spend time. Was very excited when they finished construction and have been a regular visitor since. There are plenty of beautiful places to sit and enjoy the area. Great visit no matter the time of year. Just wish the hours were open later. It is always hard for me to get there during the day and frankly would love the upstairs balcony at dark in the winter.

I love going to the botanic gardens here in Cheyenne. Its so serene and relaxing.its really nice to every once in awhile stop and smell the roses and recenter and refocus yourself on whats really most important in your life. This is the place to do just that. I come back from time to time when I need to recharge my batteries.
