From the reviews

This is a kid-friendly venue. The kid's garden is a MUST for little explorers. It has a willow tunnel and a creek that you can play in. The gardens are natural and informal. Beautiful and fragrant. I visited when lilacs and peonies were in bloom and the scent of lilacs filled the entire gardens.
