Airlie gardens is a gorgeous, tropical, photographers paradise. There is always something in bloom no matter when you go. VERY reasonable price to get in and something the whole family can afford and enjoy. A 400 year old oak tree welcomes you as you enter and just beckons you to see what lay ahead of you. The kids will enjoy the butterfly gardens. A must see !

We had a great visit last summer. Beautiful gardens with lots of interesting nooks a crannies. Famous for the azaleas, but if you can't get there during the few weeks they are in bloom it is still worth the visit.

Airlie Gardens has beautiful scenery. It is full of azaleas and other local plants. One can get beautiful pictures here. Our children had a blast, and they really loved the chapel that is made out of bottles, it's really cool.

Airlie Gardens is hands down one of my favorite places I have ever visited! The flower gardens are absolutely breathtaking when in bloom! I could spend all day just wandering around, taking in all of the beauty from nature. This is a one of a kind place - truly inspirational, especially if you are a photographer. My absolute favorite spot on property is the Pergola Garden - its enchantingly beautiful! Highly recommended!!!

Most people enjoy Airlie in May and June when the Azalea Festival is in full swing. However, one of the best time to visit is late March. I enjoyed the tulip and daffodils and the opportunity to enjoy the grounds without big crowds.

We went here for the Christmas lights. It rained and rained. But the experience was well worth it for the wonderful and created lights they have here. This year we are going to the gardens which are also supposed to be very special.

Like the color green?Got the winter blues? Then shift into green!Stand anywhere in the ocean creek boundaried county park and experience 360 degrees if gree . -- love oak, pine, camellia, spruce, azalea to literally name a few! For five dollars wander for hours. Wrap yourself in the visual green!

We have a group of 7 couples that go twice a month during summer for their concert series and it is a great way to end the work week! Part of our Christmas celebration each year involves the Christmas lights which get better each year! Magical!

A must for the flower/ plant/ and tree lover, especially in the spring when the azaleas are blooming. Nature photographers would love this also.

Good for a pleasant outdoor walk in nice weather. In each season there are always interesting seasonal plants.

A tradition for us to attend Enchanted Airlie. Beautiful lights and good time with friends. Stroll around the gardens, see the beautiful lights and even stop and see Santa.

Pretty light display throughout the park during the holidays. A nice tradition. The lights are not excessive, do not expect "clark Grizzwolds".

Regardless of the season, Airlie Gardens does a fantastic job of having something to delight you all year!

I'm from PA, it doesn't compare to Longwood Gardens near West Chester if you are a frequent garden viewer, but its a fun afternoon with nature near the water! First Sunday of every month is a free tour

I love Arlie gardens. My favorite time is when the spring flowers are in bloom. Tranquil, they don't allow bikes or joggers. It is a great place to reflect and we take visitors there year round. The first Sunday of the month is free-otherwise there is a charge. Love all the turtles!
