They have plenty of other houseplants and succulents as well. Being on the Central Coast these plants are so healthy. So many to choose from and pricing is fair. Staff is always so helpful and knowledgeable whenever I am here. They also carry all the supplies you need for both indoor and outdoor gardening projects. You can even pick up a gift for your gardening or plant loving friend. What I love most is they are a non profit so every dollar spent here supports mental health services here in the SLO community. Easy to find right on Chorro Street across from the mission. Parking is a challenge since it's all on the street or nearby garage. I highly recommend a stop here if you are a plant Mama or Papa.

Amazing what a difference pruning and trimming makes when done by someone who really knows what they're doing! I highly recommend Dan's for any landscaping project.

This 8 day leisurely drive to and from SF was beautiful and stopping at will and experiencing this farm in San Luis Obispo was so peaceful and fun.

A wonderful and warm Manager Olivia who lives in the area and loves what she does. A lovely store with Halloween Knick knacks and jars of honey and other delicious items.

As far as I am concerned, this is the best place to have a wedding in San Luis Obispo ... ever. In…read morefact (if you didn't guess) this is where my husband and I got married. This is why I loved it, and why all my family is still talking about how ours was the best wedding they had ever been to: 1 - Really beautiful garden, and it is SLO, so you know the weather is going to be beautiful. There are lots of pretty benches and places to take photos. 2 - None of this dumb "all included package" junk, so you can have whatever you want! We had friend's as the musicians, DJ, photographers, bartender, officiant, and Mo's catered. Mmmmm .... Mo's. 3 - CHEAP. It is a city park, so you go pay a relatively small fee at the Parks and Rec. department to rent the area (I think it was $600ish), and then a $99 one day liquor license. 4 - It is roughly across the street from the Travelodge on Marsh, so you can reserve a block of rooms for your guests, and they can WALK to your wedding. And if not ... there is ample parking. 5 - It is close enough to downtown to go to bars and stuff after, but far enough away that there is little noise from traffic. So yeah, maybe it isn't great if you have a HUGE family (ours was about 130 people, which was just right), and you do have to get all the tables, linens, your cake, and everything there and set up ... but really ... grab a few friends, and family members. We started at 8 am and had the place set up by 9:30or 10, which left plenty of time to get ready for our 3 o'clock ceremony. I wouldn't have changed anything about the day. Everything was perfect, and we didn't spend tens of thousands of dollars.

The reception was easy - the usual stupid liability forms to fill out - otherwise its nestled in a grove of trees and surprisingly quiet given how close to the road it is.

Definitely relaxed us before the relaxing massage and a relaxing hot shower afterwards. You just didn't want to do anything after that. A great experience and well worth it.

In a way, I was actually relieved to read some of the other recent reviews and realize that we weren't alone in feeling disappointed. I'll start with the positives. My daughter and I stayed here as part of a special graduation gift, and we were in Building F. While it is an older building, the beds were very comfortable, the air conditioning worked wonderfully, and our room was nice and quiet. The owner of the Secret Garden was absolutely fabulous and a bright spot during our stay. Unfortunately, the other employee we encountered there was not nearly as welcoming. Sadly, I agree with several other reviewers that the overall experience simply does not match the price point. Our check-in experience was awful, and overall we found the level of service from several employees to be very disappointing. The property itself is beautiful and has so much potential, but for the price, we expected a much higher level of hospitality and attention to detail. The hot tubs are also in serious need of updating. We visited the spa as well, which was just OK, but unfortunately found some of the young women working there to be surprisingly unfriendly and rude. I truly wish our experience had been different, especially since this was meant to be a special mother-daughter graduation getaway. It's a beautiful setting, but based on the service and overall value for the price, we would not return.
