For anyone who enjoys gardens, easy walking paths with a great variety of plantings, almost all labeled for easy identification. Fun and interesting features throughout the garden from formal gardens, vegetables, a kitchen herbal, to spots of whimsy.

Plan to visit just the gardens as the mansion will be under renovation for over a year. But the gardens and grounds around the house are worth the visit.
