Reviews
I visited the center today with my family for the first time. I was impressed with the beautiful, well-maintained variety of gardens. Walking trails in the woods are easy and pretty. The buildings and statues were historic and lovely. The peacock roaming the grounds was a bonus. Lots of butterflies and birds. Currently, they have a special Lego display event that is wonderful to see—plenty of parking. The staff was friendly and helpful. The price is very reasonable. We spent about 2 & ½ hours there but could have spent more time in the mansion (main house). The website is very detailed.
Longwood Center Garden is a wonderful place for all ages and mobility.
There is a great children's area, along with a story book trail, which is paved.
There are plenty of shaded areas.
Those in a wheelchair have plenty of access to areas. (I'm trying to remember if there was any area that was stairs only. I believe one way might be by stairs, but another would be accessible through the grass.)
Every area was clean - gardens, greenhouse, cafe, restrooms and gift shop.
We strolled for about 3 1/2 hours and will be returning to see a few things we missed.
Entry for adults was $8, which is more than reasonable.
Lego display was fantastic, but be sure to check the website as I believe it is leaving this month sometime.
Highly, highly recommend!
I took my two young boys here along with some of my HS friends. It is so beautiful! Everything is well cared for, and the staff is super friendly. The mansion was open for self guided tours, and the summer exhibit was massive Lego structures. There were also two peacocks roaming. Admission was only $8 too. We will definitely go back if we’re in the area again.
Perfect spot for our picnic! We brought our own food in and found a shady spot to eat lunch. The employees are very friendly and the gardens were gorgeous. We had fun meandering around and looking for the peacocks. Also loved the special lego displays.
This is one of the best estate gardens in the region! A fantastic house with numerous garden rooms, but the greenhouses are the icing on the cake! I love visiting this garden in all seasons!
If you are into gardens and going through mansions, this is okay place. It's a lot of walking. If you don't like walking, this might not be enjoyable. As of now all the floors are open in the main house for you to see and you can take your time and stroll through. You can take as many pictures as you want. They also have a lot of Legos sculptures all around the garden and in the main house
Absolutely loved it! We went primarily to see the Lego sculptures by Sean Kenney, but fell in love with the whole estate. The gardens are simply gorgeous. So many flowers and plants. The trails and walk ways around the estate are well tended to. There is an amazing Storybook trail. The ponds were lovely. The greenhouse was so amazing with all the different plants. And the actual house/museum was really neat to walk through. Overall, a stunning place to visit. The Lego sculptures were super neat and fun to see as well. A nice little gift shop and a Cafe on site as well. Plenty of benches to sit throughout and a few restrooms as well.
We stopped in on our way to Cleveland after seeing great reviews on Facebook Ohio Road Trips. I have a 9 and 7 year old. Not only did they love the mansion, lego exhibits, and fairy gardens, but my husband and I insisted we come back when we had more time. They have a nice gift shop and a coffee (which we didn't eat).
