They had a very large commercial sized fridge/ freezing for your food. All tables were out but if you needed more they were very accessible. We paid in full in advance, we chose to pay for everyone's parking which we paid for at the end. Very easy. The girls loved riding the carousel a million times! Only draw back it's there is no AC abs barely breathable fans. Very hot. Would do it again :)

Various artists perform in their bandshell and they also have movies and other activities; check their summer schedule to see their many offerings. My favorite of the annual concert series is the fireworks night! This is usually scheduled on the Friday either before or after the 4th of July; with a rain date, in case of bad weather. They usually have a concert between 7-9pm, with the fireworks immediately after the concert. If you ever want to see fireworks up close, this is the place to see it!! But be warned:. It can get pretty loud! Lots of fun for the whole family. Amazing fireworks!!

I've lived on this island for 35 years, and didn't know about this park until today. Aside from the…read morefact that the park doesn't open until noon, this was a perfect visit. I've been to bird sanctuaries and went away without seeing a bird, but not here. The park is on two levels, and they have spent years adding magical little features here and there. We were particularly impressed with the vegetable garden for donations to charity and what is literally a "Flower Bed." It's only 20 minutes from our house, so hopefully we will be repeat visitors.

Please note of it's opening time when planned to visit. It's a small garden but has plenty to offer. I like the setup and how they fenced it out for privacy.

You would not be disappointed.

The huge parking lot makes arrival stress-free, and while the pool is under construction, there's still plenty to enjoy. Let's talk dog policy--yes, they allow dogs, but only if your furbaby is running. So if you've got a chill pup who prefers a stroll, maybe toss on a wig and blend in with the sprinters This park is clean, upgraded, and full of surprises. The trail area is perfect for a peaceful walk or jog, and the amenities? Stacked: - Volleyball court - Handball court - Basketball court - Pickleball court - Baseball field (not court--gotcha!) - Skating rink for winter vibes - Seasonal carnival festivities Whether you're here for a workout, a walk, or just to vibe with nature, this park delivers.

Beautiful mix of plants and flowers flanking the entryway. Not that big of a garden but still had different areas to see - ponds and marsh areas, rose garden, lots of trees, small bridges etc. along walking paths - some paved, but a lot were pebbly, grassy or had steps so may be limited for those using a walker or wheelchair. A nice place for a short nature walk.

A visit to Old Westbury Gardens is always a wonderful experience, but it's especially spectacular…read morein June when the roses are in full bloom. The gardens are beautifully maintained, the grounds are peaceful and relaxing, and every path seems to lead to another picture-perfect view. Based on many recent positive visitor reviews, people consistently praise the stunning landscapes, historic mansion, tranquil atmosphere, and endless photo opportunities. I'm giving it 5 stars because it's truly a beautiful place to spend a couple of hours. Whether you want to leisurely stroll through the gardens, take lots of photos, or do a little of both, about two hours feels just right. There's also plenty of free parking, which makes visiting easy. While the current admission price of $22 per adult feels a bit high, the beauty of the property and the overall experience still make it worth the visit. Throughout the year they host great special events, including classic car shows and an incredible illuminated pumpkin trail before Halloween that has become a Long Island favorite.

There was a Lego exhibit with all sorts of creations ranging from a monarch butterfly to hummingbird to snail on a mushroom. I definitely recommend checking Google maps using Google Earth view before you go because we ended up getting lost and couldn't find the entrance for 15 minutes. A lot of local libraries do offer Old Westbury Gardens passes so definitely check out your local library before purchasing tickets to see if they're available!
