Nice little refreshingly, colourful place. An out door which is not too out of city door.It was sad to see how our people are careless about the health of themselves and others. 99% of Garden visitors were not wearing Masks and disregarding. Social Distancing. I just wonder why?

Very small botanical garden. Pretty place. Shows evidence of past input by a professional landscape architect or landscape planner. Has a few special features like the gate with unusual wisteria (available at Calloways btw), the large fountain, a rocky enclosure, and relaxing patio. Several areas need more attention because theyre overrun with groundcover or are too much like someones backyard with common garden plants and little water features. Bats are active at dusk. Popular with photographers in the evening. Best time to go is in the morning if you dont want to walk through a photo shoot. Overall deserves 4 stars because its rare to find a botanical garden in North Texas.

Beautifully maintained little area! Great hang out spot to bring young children as the garden trail is in a nice little loop. There were plenty of beautiful varieties in plants, as well as some pretty insects weve never seen before. The fountain sounds are peaceful and there are plenty of benches and tables to relax at and enjoy the plants and water.Theres also a small playground right outside the garden which is very well maintained too.

It was nice and clean and had a nice little setup for fall. Perfect for residents near by and to take pics but not something a tourist should come from far amd see it. I have seen way better botanical gardens than this one.

I didnt know about this place until we went lol its a good park from what I saw. Well visit another time to see anything we missed this time.It was pretty packed and late so we couldnt stay long. Its a great place for kids but there were mostly teens there than younger children so maybe go earlier in the day to avoid that. Plenty of people had the same idea as us which was to have a picnic which we did by the basketball court on a table. You should go here and check out the flowers and park! I think theres a pumpkin patch down the street from there too.

We used this as a stage for family portraits. It is a beautiful little park and afterwards we took the time to look around and enjoy it. It has a small playground adjacent to the gardens, clean restrooms and plenty of parking. Easy access to 114.

A well maintained garden with lots of space for children and families to spend time. The guzzling of the water fountain and the stream makes it very relaxing. The childrens play zone is good. We noticed a few wedding photoshoots taking place at the location. The background allows for great photography.

Wonderful green space not too far from Dallas. I visit here often with my family to just walk around, watch koi fish in the pond and enjoy nature along with admiring it’s Creator - our Heavenly Father. The playground is great too.

Nice little garden! I would only recommend it for Photoshoots (that’s what most of the people in the park were doing when we got there) - there is lots of shade for great pics, but not a lot of place to walk around. Gets crowded really quickly. Not good for large groups either.

An awesome little getaway place to go hang out and relax for the adults & for the kids to enjoy themselves.Adjacent to Grapevine Botanical Gardens is a park, that Im sure the kids will love. It has a play area with swings and things for kids to climb on. It has a very nice full basketball & tennis court, and for extra bonus, and for individuals that love playing picklball, like myself, there are lines painted on two courts for your picklball pleasure!The botanical Gardens, to me, looks like they are working on some improvements, and not as radiant today, as I remember it, but still beautiful site to see...

Really nice park and great get away from the bustling main street close by. The park is a little small but it has a very nice collection of flowers and a few areas to sit down. Its a little tucked away from the street and easy to miss though so make sure you are careful or you will miss it.They were setting up Dinos this week, hopefully they remain open with everything going on, but it is still a good place to get out and walk with plenty of room to breath. There are improvements to this space in progress, but what is complete so far is much more open and bright than the previous arrangements.A well maintained garden with lots of space for children and families to spend time.

They made an attempt at a butterfly garden but its super duper small and over so quickly that it leaves a lot to be desired. If its the only place youre able to go, its worth it. But if youre looking for a day trip destination for your family, go to Texas Discovery Gardens instead. Worth paying money for a better experience and more things to see.

Pretty place, very small. They seemed to have a nice playground area so it sounds be great to take the kids and have a picnic. I was looking for a nice place to go for a walk with a senior citizen, it was, however, we walked the whole thing in a matter of a few minutes.

Review №52

A beautiful park to walk around in. Its often used for photo shoots so be careful you dont walk into the middle of one. Not as large as the ones in Dallas or fort Worth but free to the public with the beautiful little koi pond. I I think a local fountain company uses it as a place to do some demos because it has quite a few beautiful fountains. Theres also tennis courts, basketball courts picnic area and a childrens play area. Theres a little stream running through the back of the property so I would not recommend leaving kids unattended. There are two pokémon GO gyms and quite a few PokéStops.

The Grapevine Botanical Gardens are a nice quaint place for picnics, fun pictures with groups and for walking around in. I went in February, when all of the trees were dead and it was pretty dark outside but, the park was still pretty. It contained atheistic bridges, extravagant fountains and a few nice paths to walk down. As beautiful as is was however, I did have a couple of problems with the park. The gardens are too close to the road (you can look across the street and clearly see houses, and you can hear the cars) and my other issue is that its quite petite so if youre looking for somewhere with a huge array of flora and fauna, then this place might not be for you. Overall, the Grapevine Botanical Gardens are good place to spend a few hours in nature; picnics with friends, and fun pictures, are all options here.

Pretty cool. Kind of small, be aware that there is not a lot to look at here. This is one of those places where people like getting their pictures taken with high-end cameras. The gardens themselves are nice. Not sure if they look the same year-round since I went on a warm summer evening.

Just beautiful. Nature in the city...everyone needs a place with the right atmosphere to relax in. Birds singing, streams running and beautiful landscaping. Our time was well spent there. Our daughter is at a near by university and this is her favorite place to go. Our 16 year old wants to be a Landscape Architect and he loved it.

In the midst of the business of down town Grapevine the botanical gardens are a great place to go sit, relax and breathe some fresh air. Walking around the pristine gardens is such a tranquil experience. The fountains, koi pond, flowers and immaculate laws are all so beautiful I could just spend all day here. It is a great place for people of all ages to go and enjoy the great outdoors. The kids can enjoy the play scapes while the adults can enjoy the multitude of walking trails. Even the restrooms here are clean which cant be said about most parks. Overall it was a lovely experience comming here and I would definitely come again.

They were setting up Dinos this week, hopefully they remain open with everything going on, but it is still a good place to get out and walk with plenty of room to breath. There are improvements to this space in progress, but what is complete so far is much more open and bright than the previous arrangements.
