Optimum Seasons: Spring, Summer, Fall
This is a small and quaint garden in Nassau County that is great for going on a date and sitting on a bench looking at the creek and pond. There is nothing too over-the-top here to see (except the front entrance is misleadingly very exotic and beautiful). The rest of the garden is just a peaceful place to relax with a loved one. I went here mid September and there were still beautiful flowers in bloom. Tip: Go here during the Halloween Spooky Walk with your children. It should be loads of fun! Or during the annual Kidstock Festival in September.
Kill a few birds with one stone: Visit neighboring Old Westbury Gardens and then head over to Old Country Road for some shopping.
