Beautiful place, great place to for a walk. The Pumpkin Trail was fun, with lots of craved Jack-o-lanterns donated by the community.

Disappointed! Loose dogs in the park, overgrown displays, un-edged paths, lake full of vegetation. Apparently the city doesn’t spend much time on this “attraction “. Saw several plaques about the tireless volunteers and most of those seem to have passed, according the the signs. There was one older lady trying to clean up one of the completely overgrown planting areas, and she could use some help. I am glad there was no admission fee, but maybe they could do that and hire some folks to make this place the gem it could be.

The forlorn expression on the widowers face with pruners in his hands standing in the ROSE GARDEN, will keep reminding me of the EFFORT, DEDICATION, & PASSION of the WONDERFUL VOLUNTEERS! My wife and I have been ENJOYING the quiet beauty of the lovely variety & arrangements of flowers, shrubs, trees, & the mowed grass several times each year for the last 6+ yrs in LBK. THANK YOU! ️

I was surprised by how well everything was maintained, this proved to be a pretty nice evening. We went around Halloween, and they had a huge pumpkin walk. No, no -- there was not a large pumpkin walking around but rather hundreds of local people/organizations carved pumpkins. so I enjoyed seeing the hard work of others. I appreciated the work put into the grounds and loved the seclusion

Beautiful area to take the family, plenty to see and lots of areas to walk around, just dont forget your camera and bug spray. My kids loved it here and the sensory garden was really awesome.

My daughters love the sensory garden, the gorgeous roses, the little church, and the wide open space here. the poppies are always a big hit, as well. This is glorious natural beauty framed in perfectly manicured lawns, and picturesque scenery that is so rare in this flat, brown wasteland. I highly recommend watching the sun set from the banks of the pond.

My favorite place to go for a walk! Lovely rose garden, full of seasonal local flowers and herbs, as well as fruit trees. For those of you who play Pokemon Go or Harry Potter: Wizards Unite, this is a good place to fill up on pokeballs/energy and do gym/fortress battles. The abundance of gazebos and trees means that its not too hard to find a shady place to rest. Its a great place for photoshoots.
