Been here a few times now. It's very quiet and peaceful.
Great staff in the office and kiosks.
The model train area is great (even as an adult I find it neat).
When you go in bloom or end of season, there is always something nice to see. Great place to just go for a walk and admire nature. Plenty of statues, structures, and bridges to keep your walk interesting.
Went out to electro glow the other night and it was great! The new set for the arboretum is incredible! The lights were beautiful as always ans the gnome and fairy house were in point! Such a great place and fun thing to do before winter really hits!
This is a real gem. The perfect place to take a casual walk and enjoy flowers, view the bronze sculptures or immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the KC area on hiking trails. The arboretum is great for all ages, from beer and wine tasting events to miniature trains and play areas. Get outside and touch grass at the arboretum.
