Despite the sold-out crowd on Mother's Day, things never felt TOO crowded. The fountain shows were beautiful, as were the various themed displays. I'd love to come here every season.Full review by RutherfordB

Ticks! We’ve been going to Longwood for years and we will go again… I hope! But, today, we came home loaded with ticks. The one thing we did differently today that we usually never do is take a walk …Full review by Larry H

This is a beautiful property with manicured grounds. The Tulips were in full bloom when we visited in late April. Very nice walking trails made for a pleasant visit.Full review by line10

The evening is when the lights of the gardens come on. They have spectacular decorations both outdoor and inside the atrium. There are several structures with a few levels which are decorated as well. It will be difficult to choose just one...Enjoy!
