Beautiful garden. It’s not extensive making it a perfect day outing for those with limited mobility or young children. All gardens are laid out in a way you could replicate at your own home, so there are some terrific ideas to be had. The staff are very knowledgeable and friendly. The children’s garden was the favorite area and the grandkids asked to go back time & again. Loved it so much I bought a membership after my second visit.

There was a Halloween ? event with a scarecrow competition. Our 3 year old loved walking the soft path and looking at the gorgeous flowers, plants, butterflies, and decorations. ? Even in late October the Botanical Garden was well worth the visit. Free entry for 3 & under was a pleasant surprise!

Absolutely beautiful gardens that I highly recommend checking out if you are in Fayetteville and have a free afternoon. It is not super big and is an easy walk around, even for my elderly Dad. There are Japanese Gardens, butterfly gardens, sensory gardens, rose gardens, multiple statues and themed areas, bridges, swings, a greenhouse, water areas, and climbing areas, tunnels, and a sand pit for kids. They have inside bathrooms and a gift shop along with events like yoga, bingo, live music, and festivals. Great for all ages, although I think the prices are a little high compared to other Botanical Gardens I have been to. $13 for adults, $6 for kids. They have summer camp too, but it is around $200 for weekly kids classes. We usually go for special discounted events and they give free passes away for summer reading at the library.

Friendly staff, nice little garden. Even on a hot day we enjoyed the walk around. Some really pretty flowers and interesting plants. I enjoyed the small Japanese style garden, very tranquil and I almost forgot I was surrounded by city. Would recommend to anyone who just enjoys flowers and landscape in general.

What a beautiful set up of this botanical garden, definitely worth the experience. I recommend parents bringing children because our highlight was that spot. Great place to even lounge and have a stroll. Sad we didn’t get to see any butterflies but every section was so unique!

As soon as I arrived, I was greeted by a wonderful employee named Donna who gave me the background/information on the beautiful garden I was about to explore. I was taken back by the architecture, barns, flowers, creeks and butterflys. This place will forever be engraved in my memories of Fayetteville AR.

Fun and absolutely STUNNING beauty for all ages, The Botanical Gardens of the Ozarks is a great place to spend a relaxing day! From educational workshops to festivals to community cocktail parties to simply strolling through the seemingly endless different types of gardens, there's truly something for everyone to enjoy. They even have chickens and one very handsome rooster! Be sure to ask for some feed when you're paying for your entry fee at the gate! This is a really incredible space, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do! I'm a long-time volunteer, and I absolutely love the variety of opportunities that are available. If you're interested in volunteering, please check out their website for more info!
