Even though I went when everything was in winter mode, the place was still maintained very well, and marked well. They were doing work on some of the path's but there was still plenty of places to walk and just sit and enjoy the birds. I will defiantly come back in spring when more flowers are blooming.

So much to see! Many paths to follow. All plants looked well maintained. Multi-level areas added dimension and depth to the surroundings.

A great place to wander for an hour and enjoy the gardens. The memorials to the armed services are an additional attraction. The whole place is restful and invigorating.

Whether you are interested in horticulture and discovering the names for the variety of plants in the gardens... or just enjoying the pretty flowers currently blooming, Glencairn Gardens is a downtown gem! A fun place to spend a few quiet hours exploring, walking, reading, or just having a picnic lunch with a few friends.Or maybe, like a niece of mine... a nice place for a garden wedding next to the reflecting pool. The Garden is much larger and somewhat changed over the last three decades, but still a community treasure! And the garden can really be enjoyed year round for a variety of activities, weather permitting,

This location is great. good benches for sitting and reading, Swings are nice, walking paths are good and areas for pictures are excellent. Ducks and fish are fun to watch. Veterans memorial is very nice.

Glen Cairn is a quaint town park with a lot of history and volunteers to maintain the park. It is a favorite for prom goers to have pictures taken. There is a big pond with lots of Koi to watch and if you look carefully, you can spot dragonflies resting in the bushes near the pond. The other newer ponds seem to be in a bit of disrepair. The park has been expanded over the last few years. After we go out to eat, sometimes we just go to slowly walk it off.

Such a beautiful park and so many venues for an outdoor wedding. It is expensive but we will see how everything goes next summer when we attend a wedding here.

This is a park that any bride would love to be photographed in and it's big enough to handle several wedding parties. Rolling hills, beautiful seasonal vegetation and flowers. Recently almost doubled in size so it's rarely crowded. Not a destination, but if you're here, it's a must see.

Large municipally-maintained garden. Includes many water features, a veterans memorial and a children's education center. Best viewed in the Spring when azaleas are blooming.

I've grown up and rock hill and have visited this beautiful garden on many occasions. This is where some of the high schools take prom pictures and other events happen. Great place to visit!

Visited with family. Interesting areas including sculptures, cascading fountains and pond. The walking paths are paved or lose stone, so would make for a nice walk even after a rain. Especially liked the veterans memorial wall and surrounding areas. Great place to take pictures. Plenty of swings and benches if you just want to rest and enjoy there outdoors for a while.

I found this attraction through TripAdvisor and glad I did. At the top level, on the south side, there is nice little garden of flowers. Then heading down the stairs onto the path, one is lost in the trees and various water features. One of the things I found unique about this gardens is the various benches that is surrounding the area, both wooden and metal. There was a couple water areas that the elge had grown over too much, where one could go "ew". Also, there are various animals wondering around, including a raccoon that had something going on with bottom end. Yet, the overall peace and quiet of the town and this garden is worth the pause in a day to visit it.

I visit this park regularly & am never disappointed! It is very well maintained with lovely paths, beautiful flowers, ponds, swings, and a community garden project. The facilities are clean & well located. The people are friendly & helpful. Great place to take a stroll with family members of any age. Take pictures, have a picnic, get sunshine & fresh air, or walk your pet! You won't be disappointed!
