Ruslan P.Cox Arboretum and Gardens is an absolute hidden gem. The place is beautifully maintained with a perfect mix of open landscapes, wooded trails, and peaceful water views. The walking paths are easy and relaxing, making it great whether you’re just out for a stroll or spending a few hours exploring. The flowers were stunning, especially the pink blooms throughout the gardens, and everything felt calm and well cared for. There are plenty of quiet spots to sit, unwind, and enjoy nature, which made it even better for visiting with family. We had no wait to enter, and the whole experience felt smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. Definitely a great spot to recharge, take photos, or just get away from the noise for a bit. Highly recommend if you’re in the area.

Kathy DeigaardThe owner was so kind despite being busy at the moment. You’ll need a reservation before showing up. It was very cozy walk, even in January. Worth the time and the kids loved it.
