Beautiful gardens, plenty to see and lots of room to spread out and read a book or have a picnic. Don't forget to take the kids to see the hundreds of pumpkins. I've never seen so many different kinds

The garden is beautiful. If you want to secure a parking spot, make sure you get there early. You can also reserve a spot on their website, which is only $8 instead of $15.

Absolutely beautiful, should visit. Well kept, seasonal displays. It is expensive & you must pay to park. Lot does get full when busy. Great place to practice photography. Try the afternoon tea.

PERFECT place to walk around, enjoy the scenery and take that perfect photo. I took my engagement photos here and still find myself in awe at how beautiful the backdrop. Check the calendar for events!

I love every season at this place - always something going on at the Arboretum. They allow outside food & drinks, so make a picnic of it. Check out details for Cool Thursdays or the children's area.

OMG Amazing!! One of the few places in Dallas that is open on Sunday morning and one of the highlights of our trip.

Best to go in the morning. Feel free to bring you kids and lunch, and plan to stay for a few hours! If you go on the weekends you will probably get to see some wedding photos being taken.

Need to come back for the plants. The digital hunt for Pokemon on these lovely grounds was amazing.

My family and I had a great time doing the gardens last weekend. We also went to Jimmy's meat market for fresh authentic Italian food...it's worth the trip and $$$ go and visit!!!

Off the shores of White Rock Lake lies the garden of a lifetime. The lush, perfectly manicured landscapes hold a treasure trove of trees, bushes & flowers that are sure to make anyone green with envy.

A wonderful venue for a private event. The staff is genial and professional. The In house caterer is wonderful to work with and the food is delicious.

Took about 2 hours to walk it. Come after 1pm...field trip kids were everywhere. Everything was gorgeous. Loved all the waterfalls and water displays.
Sue YoungOctober 20, 2013
Just opened Children's Garden is awesome! Does require an additional fee though. 40,000 pumpkins, glorious hues of fall and children watching as the parents snap pictures. What a treat!
Sigit PrayogaMarch 23, 2015
I came here in the earliest spring, but with $15 fee, the garden is huge and full of flowers. Colorful and peaceful

You can't find many places in Dallas that beat the beauty of the Arboretum. It's so peaceful and restful.

If you plan on walking around, do NOT wear heels. We came for a photo shoot and, of course, wanted to explore the garden after. My God I wish I had put my flats in the diaper bag.

Well worth the price especially when Spring has sprung. Also if you want to spend more time without the cost you can become a volunteer.
