- LeeApr 26, 2024Great time!
My border collie and I had a great time. The gardens were quiet and had many different sections to explore. There was plenty of shade to rest in and plenty of things to see and sniff. Great exposure to new sights and smells for my dog.
- KateApr 17, 2024Good Alternative to Airlie Gardens
Our first stop was Airlie Gardens where we discovered No Pets. The Aboretum is nearby, free and dog friendly. It’s a small area but very well kept with signs naming the plants and whimsical sculptures.
- AmyJul 14, 2022Small but nice little Garden
Free Arboretum that allows dogs. Good for a respite from the heat. Our dog enjoyed watching the carp.
- MelissaMar 31, 2021Beautiful in early Spring!
4.5 bones: Azaleas, cherries, and more were blooming gorgeously. Gift shop closed due to COVID19. Found the cleanup bags on our way out. Nice walk around the grounds.
- EmilyOct 19, 2020Beautiful!
We loved it here! Free admission to the gardens and you can bring dogs as long as they’re leashed and you pick up after them. Lots of space to walk around as well as various places to sit down and relax while enjoying the scenery. The (human) kids enjoyed feeding the koi fish and we all got a kick out of watching the dogs’ reactions.
- LexiMore than a year agoBeautiful
The gardens were beautiful and my dog had fun playing peekaboo with koi fish!

I only called this morning and found out you can bring your dog there as long as you pick up after them.
