Kagney is AMAZING! If you need someone to navigate the ins and outs of a venue while being thorough but adding just enough. Great experience!! Cant wait to get married at this Beautiful venue. The ceremony site(s) to choose from are perfect for whatever you are looking for. The reception areas are spacious and can be made your own theme very transparently. The caterers area is spacious. I loved the reception area for the Inn with a Backyard. Its like a log cabin that has a lot of square footage for whatever your heart desires!! Thanks again to Kagney for being sooo great!!

Wonderful place for a wedding! Kagney showed us around and did a great job. Thank you!

We stopped here on a whim while we had some free time. The gardens are absolutely beautiful, what an amazing place to just relax. It’s an oasis from the big city in the middle of the big city and it’s free to walk around and explore. We didn’t visit any of the facilities on site like the Coffee Shop or Gift Shop. We did use the bathrooms and they were very clean and air conditioned, nicer than any parks in town. Plenty of places to sit throughout or have a picnic. We’ll definitely return.

Lovely free place to take a walk, really great in the summer with the flowers . Very simple trails , nice little gift shop. Parking is free but come early .Lots of birds in the ponds, the Monet pond is a great place to sit and relax.

Absolutely beautiful! One of the Denver areas best kept secrets! Always special to watch people get their family pictures every fall. A great place to take your kids. An absolutely stunning place for special events! One of my quiet meditation places.

Love this place. It was beautiful. We had never been. We went for the Denver Walk to End Colon Cancer. We were able to roam and enjoy the artistic beauty. Lovely place to roam and enjoy. Only draw back is not many people tend to smile. Come on Littleton. Your city is beautiful. Smile please.

Beautifully landscaped with distinct areas you hardly noticed the weddings, birthdays and photo ops happening. And all for free!

This place is truly amazing! Gorgeous flowers, foliage, ponds, wildlife! Great place to go for a peaceful walk to clear your head, have a picnic with friends & family, take some amazing pictures, or just enjoy the serenity and the gorgeous sights! You can explore the whole place in about an hour or so, or take your time and make a day of it. And best of all, its easily accessible with multiple entrances and its 100% free!

This place is beautiful. I am super thankful it is free most of the time. I enjoy the benches by the water which are great for contemplation. I encourage people to contribute to this great place so all can enjoy.

What a beautiful place! My kid keeps asking to return! Gorgeous grounds AND IT’S FREE! There are a few climbing structures available for the kids. Perfect family outing!

Wonderful park. Very wide paths allowing you to social distance but still see and experience everything. I love coming here, just wish you didnt have to walk through their tiny entrance building to enter.

This has been our quarantine refuge. Weve been here 4 times this summer, and we find something new every time. Everyone loves looking for the turtles, frogs and fish in the ponds. There is plenty of space to roam and maintain distance from others.

Took my kids here for a quick day adventure. They loved it, especially the frogs! Was very clean and wasnt too crowded, we went on a Monday.

A quiet, peaceful place. Free, but be sure to leave a donation.

What a great place to either watch a concert, take family photos, see Christmas lights, check out the pumpkin patch or enjoy a quiet walk in the rose garden. This venue is full of so many events that keep the family busy throughout the year. The gardens are a wonderful place to walk around anytime of the year, and changing exhibits to the given season. The walking trails are wonderful to walk along with a friend.

This is a nice spot. Coffee shop, ponds (no pool, but the pond is good for you), flowers, ducks, geese. I feel like I already posted this review. Maybe this is a different location, maybe its an alternative universe?

We love going here at least twice a year. Its a great place to take the kids to explore nature. Weve seen great big frogs, lily pads, tons of beautiful flowers, birds. The summers can be really hot, but they have placed water jugs with cups in certain places around the gardens to help cool off. Highly recommend this place!

Very pretty appt right in Santa Fe. Gardens are free to enter. Pretty friendly and very relaxing! Great Sunday afternoon stroll!

Beautiful and serene location to walk, sit, and reflect. You can access it from either Sante Fe or the Mary Carter Greenway bike path (the preferred entrance in my opinion). It is also home to Nixons Coffee Shop where you can grab a drink or snack and then walk the property. Check out the bee hives and nature ponds.

This is one of those unique places that are hard to find and cannot be duplicated. Educational opportunities, weddings, special occasions and concerts are amazing here. Not to mention the free strolls through acres of landscape and rose gardens. Wonderful.Parking is convenient (but come early on big events) and staff is professional. I bring clients, family and friends here often. You should too!

I love Hudson Gardens. So peaceful to walk around, and many interesting things to see.

I love the park! Especially during the sunset. Clean and pleasant place

We like to walk here. The area is well maintained pretty

Its free admission and beautifully maintained. So peaceful!

Beautiful gardens, really well maintained, and free entrance. We had a wonderful lunch picnic in the shade and wandered around the quiet waterways until it was time to head home. Our 2 year old really enjoyed watching all the birds and dragonflies zipping around.

I love Hudson Gardens. Its a great place to take a walk to enjoy foliage around the property; they have beautiful rose gardens and fountains too. Once in a while theyll have live music and at Christmas time Santa sets up shop and visits with children appointment free, you can take your own photos for free.

Wonderfully maintained gardens with walking paths. Such a great thing during this pandemic. Folks visiting wore masks when near others. Best of all it is free!

Nice place to take a walk and enjoy the flowers.

Beautiful setting for events or just a quiet walk. Excellent place for group, senior, family photography. Located next to the Platte River and bike trail.

Its really pretty and peaceful. Perfect for taking walks by yourself or with your dog, biking and reading. Its also a great spot for taking photos.

A close family member passed away recently in Boulder, CO, and his immediate family opted to have his remains planted with a tree at a memorial grove in Hudson Gardens. His wife, who had preceded him in death a mere 7 months prior, had her remains returned to the Earth in a similar fashion, as did her mother many years ago.We arrived early (traffic in Littleton was, predictably, a nightmare) and went to the welcome center, where the representative on staff knew nothing about the memorial grove, or what was going on! This unnerved us, but not for long. We eventually found out that a family member had made the arrangements directly with the groundskeeper to have a hole dug and a sapling tree in place for the remembrance. She kept in close touch with the gentleman, and had even reconfirmed things with him a couple days prior. He assured her that things were good to go, so our group walked over to the grove, which was a bit of a schlep due to some construction goingWe were once again taken aback upon our arrival at the designated place to discover that there was no hole or tree to be found! A phone call to the groundskeeper revealed that one of his kids had had an accident at home requiring an ER visit, stitches, etc., and the excavation and tree planting would have to wait until the following week. This was unacceptable as several people had traveled from out of state, and some from out of the country, to attend this service. A second phone call to the groundskeeper by another family member, stressing the inconvenience this caused, convinced him of the necessity to assemble his team and get the job done as was promised. He made it happen. So, it was a case of alls well that ends well, but after quite a bit of hand-wringing and teeth-gnashing.Hudson Gardens is a beautiful place, and apparently a popular one for weddings, family reunions, etc. As mentioned previously, there was quite a bit of construction going on when we were there, not sure for what purpose, but hopefully a better end user experience will be the result.

Beautiful place spent a good amount of time here and best of all its free and was near our hotel.

Nice, charming, light set up. Easy to walk through with plenty of well spaced welcoming warming stations. Easy access for people of all abilities. This location is especially accessible for people using wheelchairs. Flat, easy, well worn paths which are easy on canes and small children. The artistry looks like it was easy, but close inspection reveals the extremely complex design that was made to look easy. The markings of true master craftsmanship. Well done, bravo. Hope to see it again next year.

Absolutely beautiful place to visit. I enjoyed the time I spent there.

A great place to take the family out for a walk,full of colourful beautiful flowers,large ponds,geese and ducks.A large garden area with a setup for concerts

Open to public, clean restrooms, snackbar has fresh kombucha off the tap, beautiful gardens, plenty of parking. Prefer to park in the lot behind jazz car wash

Beautiful place, the roses were beautiful. Extensive grounds and good variety, we did not spend time around the Lilly pond. Next time we will bring sunscreen and be there for a few hours.

The trailFlowers.snack bar. Mini town. All of it was.fun

Absolutely amazing. We go almost every weekend.

The gardens are beautiful and ever-changing throughout the seasons.

Beautiful lights display for Christmas. A perfect space for little kids to run around! Our 16 month old had a blast, and got to meet Santa for the first time. Bonus that the line for Santa was pretty quick in comparison to other places

Amazing, its like a dream. Our family visited while it was snowing and it was absolutely beautiful. A must see if you are in the Denver area.

The Christmas light display was amazing! I cant wait to make that a yearly tradition.

Great green space, bring a chair or blanket, your snacks and unopened, bottled water and brace yourselves for some intimate concert memories! Up close and personal. Theres no assigned seating but there are lines painted on the grass to form rows and aisles. Food trucks were good, lots of port O potties so no waiting. A very civilized way to be close to your favorite bands, very nice. Take your rain gear, the afternoon showers like to blow through!

We love going here with our kids to walk around.

Great music venue! Grassy slopes seating so bring your comfortable folding chair or blanket to sit on. Beer and wine available along with food trucks. Able to get up close to the stage if you get there early!!

In a world so for of chaos and unsettling times Hudson Gardens provides that peace we are long for.

Such a cool little concert venue! The food truck line up is awesome too. We try and go to as many concerts here as we can every Summer.

Free and beautiful gardens to explore. A gem! Their cafe on the s. Platte bike trail (and bathrooms) are now open, too.

I love this place. Beautiful gardens and a nice place to get married

I always enjoy the many different events they do. We just walk the gardens today oh, it was beautiful

One of the most beautiful free places in Colorado!

This is many times, our turnaround spot on our bike rides on the Platte River trail. There are shady benches with ponds and local wildlife (turtles and ducks). Nice spot for lunch.

A peaceful place to relax during the day and a concert venue at night. Hudson Gardens also has spaces available for wedding receptions and the like. A beautiful spot along the South Platte for all to enjoy.

Great place to go. I love walking around and looking at the nature they have. I would recommend this place to everyone.

Beautiful gardens and local escape into nature!

I would give it five, but I take one off due to staff motivation....it is a beautiful place!

The fun place for holiday season. Xmas was so beautiful and the hot chocolate was a pleaser for the park.

Beautiful, quiet, with lots of shady places to stop and admire.

Ive only been during Hudson Gardens Christmas event. We went last year 2017 and this year 2018. Great place to visit to see Christmas lights and visit with Santa. The staff is really friendly. It also is reasonably priced. The christmas lights around the gardens is very beautiful. Highly recommend it.

This place is near to heaven . if you walk around the water features u will see the preservation of wild and free is captured to be cherished look for tutrtles frogs large fish , a jungle view, for the most rugged . There flower displays , show the talent , and has obvious forethought and planning behind a sympfony of photo opps , with classic views .

One of the best summer venues for concerts. Great line ups, reasonable priced, great food trucks, friendly staff and neighbors. We look forward to the schedule every year.

Beautiful open space with art sculptures and some interesting plants. Entry is free!

The gardens are beautiful as always. The staff is very helpful, understanding, and kind people.

Went for flowers and flutes. It was beautiful and relaxing !

Fun beautiful place. LOVE the Holiday lights!

I walked around the gardens and enjoyed the peaceful setting. The grounds are well maintained and beautiful.

Absolutely fabulous!! Super fun Super Diamond concert and fireworks.

Beautiful place for the Chelsea Hutchison Foundation!

Town Hall of Almost Heaven performance here is marvelous

I attended the holiday lights last month and it was absolutely magical. The lights were spectacular and totally worth the entry fee. The park outside of the holiday lights is very beautiful and peaceful as well.

Great place to hold events beautiful and peaceful

Super nice place, tons of good photo spots to be found here

Nice place along the South Platte River.

Very relaxing walk. The new water areas are pretty.

I LOVE this place. Events or beautiful scenery. Its a must see

Awesome Christmas lights. More a family theme but still fun for couples to go to. I didnt see any dogs which was slightly disappointing for me.

I like going to these scenic gardens especially when the weather is warm. The amphitheater is just beautiful. Definitely worth visiting!

Pretty place!!! Fun to just go relax there, read a book, etc

Absolutely gorgeous any time of the year

Nixons is the place to stop for a cold drink when bike riding on the Mary Carter Trail. Help support the botanical gardens.

I have only worked this venue a few times, but it is an awesome place to get married.

Great in the summer for their concert season and also in the winter for their incredible lights.

Great fun festive time with family and friends. Everything was easily accessible and the entire atmosphere was warm and welcoming. There are plenty of little places to stay warm so your not left freezing the entire time your there.

Nice light ,but didn’t have many activities in Christmas .

Strictly talking about the holiday lights: it was ok. Its an affordable option. However, many people ruined the experience by blocking the routes and doorways and not being self aware enough to realize what they were doing. It got frustrating trying to get around and making sure you see everything. I would recommend they take after the Denver botanical gardens and make it so theres one path everyone goes. By the time I got to the end, I thought to myself: this is it?

Came for the Styx concert.. beautiful place and I love how security kept the area clear

Great place to walk, have a wedding

I attended my very first concert at Hudson Gardens this evening (WAR). What an awesome venue. The gardens are beautiful and the picturesque setting made for a magical evening. Looks like an incredible venue for a special occasion. A different version of the Denver Botanic Gardens.

Went to the Christmas Lights. Beautiful display of lights. However, Hudson needs to rethink their dangerous parking situation. The attendants were not helpful, directed cars back out with no further instructions. Its dark, lots of kids. Not a pleasant first impression. How about some signage, or instructions on your website. Anything to help a first timer figure out where to safely go.

We went to see Chris Isaac as part of the Summer Concert Series. There was plenty of parking and traffic control. The venue was crowded but there was still room for more. The food trucks were all great but get there early before WE Kitchen runs out of Korean burritos. It was a beautiful night and worth the drive all the way across town.

This place is super neat, and with the lights, it is downright magical. They have parking figured out and easy, the tickets are cheap, they have multiple stops within the garden to warm up, they have a hot chocolate stand, and this is 100% something we are going to do next year; maybe well go twice!

Nice place to visit anytime of the year!!!

Every Event and concert has been AWESOME!

Its so pretty and I like all the animals

We enjoyed the Christmas walk through the gardens. Not a very long walk, easily accessable for everyone. Plenty of places to warm up, if needed. Great photo oops, and Santa!

The lights are beautiful at Christmas. There is also hot chocolate and coffee you can buy. There is a free santa where you can get a photo (with your camera) with Santa. There is also a building with a model train to watch which is cool and my daughter enjoyed watching it for a while.

I will definitely be back, its a laid back venue with friendly helpful staff.

Went to the winter lights. It was fun. Maybe should have been $5 or $6 rather than $10 but was still fun.

Very clean and warm environment. The people and dogs are very friendly. The nature is extreme and just on my first visit I saw a beaver. Keep your eyes on the river by the bridges particularly. I promise ;)
