点评:NOT AS ADVERTISED!!! DO NOT WASTE TOUR TIME OR MONEY FOR A TOUR OF GROUNDS!! This is really just a wedding venue grounds. Yes, it has beautiful buildings. It is WAY OVERPRICED for the value of a self-guided or any other tour! Gardens were OK, but most of the plants were in planters, which was beautiful, but if you would like to go to a premiere Gardens and pay an acceptable price, I would suggest the Frederick Meijer Gardens, which are absolutely beautiful and very large grounds.
We arrived around noon and they said they close at 2pm. We paid the $34 (yep - that’s the discounted SENIOR RATE for a “Self-guided tour! Wow!). We were done walking the grounds within 30-45 minutes. There was a wedding about to happen so I’m assuming that’s the reason they closed at 2pm - but they could have told us that too. There was also a rehearsal luncheon too and people all over so it was difficult to take any type of pictures of the buildings.
DON’T STOP HERE IT’S NOT WORTH THE MONEY. IT’S NOT A PLACE I WOULD EVER GO TO AGAIN - SO RIDICULOUSLY OVER-PRICED FOR THE VALUE!! They can do much better if they really need to charge for walking their small grounds.
翻译:与宣传不符!!!切勿浪费时间或金钱来参加园区参观游览!!这里实际上只是一个婚礼场地而已。确实,那里有一些漂亮的建筑。但就自助游览或其他任何形式的游览而言,其价格实在高得离谱!花园还算不错,不过大部分植物都种在花盆里——虽然看起来很漂亮,但如果你想参观一个真正一流且收费合理的花园,我推荐弗雷德里克·梅杰花园,那里的景色绝对迷人,园区面积也相当广阔。我们中午左右到达,工作人员说下午2点就闭园了。我们支付了34美元(没错——这就是针对“自助导览”的老年人优惠价!真惊人!)。我们只用了30到45分钟就逛完了整个园区。当时有一场婚礼即将举行,我猜这就是他们下午2点闭园的原因——但其实他们本可以提前告知我们的。此外还有婚宴彩排,到处都是人,因此根本很难拍到建筑的照片。别在这儿停留了,根本不值这个价钱。这绝对不是我会再去的地方——就其提供的服务而言,价格简直贵得离谱!!如果他们真的要为游客参观那不大的园区收费的话,其实完全可以定个更合理的价格。
