Do not choose this cemetery. What a horrible place, you're much better off choosing Holy Cross!…read more Still local family run. Here is why: Cypress Lawn bought and took over Olivet Cemetery...and more, cremation businesses and funeral homes. It's now being run like a large for profit operation. It's like a car lot where some people are working on commission trying to make the most money. You are assigned a young sales person depending on your last name. Gone are the warm, friendly, mature adults. The first young man I spoke with after Cypress Lawn took over told me my mother couldn't be buried with my father, though she was assured of that right when she bought the plot. This is a different story than what the people at Olivet Cemetery told me before the change. My mom died in 2022 and I was just waiting for the house to be sold so I could bury her. Cypress gave me misinformation. They tried to upsell me. They did not follow through on their word (the chairman of the board included), nor on the commitments made to me in writing though I wrote a letter to the entire Board of Directors and the chairman - who finally wrote back and made promises and commitments they did not bother to keep. I've reached out many times and my dear mother, a well-known Dolger Senior center cafe volunteer and a respected public servant still remains unburied despite her right of internment. My father was a decorated war hero. This place is all about the money and as long as you have lots of money to put out to go along with their service model they will fawn over you.. My parents bought a plot at all Olivet cemetery in 1996 before it was bought by Cypress Lawn and new management has implemented new and changed policies. This is such a wrong and deeply upsetting situation for my family and I. I just want to honor my mom's final wishes. I shouldn't have to call multiple times, receive different stories, take the time to write to the entire board of directors and chairman of the board... Be made empty promises by the chairman of the board only to have to carry it further, next step is to find other entities, talk to the Better Business Bureau and whatever governing agency there is over cemeteries. This has been one of the most frustrating experiences of my life... We just want to honor our mother's last wish and for the cemetery to provide the necessary information and schedule to get her placed with her husband as she wanted.

This location is RIGHT ACROSS FROM LUCKY CHANCES CASINO!!…read moreIt's huge, clean and COLD!! Parking sucks just like other cemeteries when it's Ching Ming and getting out is a pain in the A$$! It's one entrance and exit, however, they added new road few years ago that connects to Olivet Cemetery which is next door, but it doesn't help either because during Ching Ming, it's just the WORST TRAFFIC EVER! Restrooms? Forget it! There's a small restroom cabin toward the lower left side (when facing toward the hill). Expect a line, and bring your own tissue wrap. That's why it's minus 1 star. The pro! It's huge, the roads are very smooth to drive thru. Lots of curves and turns but clean ones. They have all around maintenance staff to care for the facility and grounds. They don't have trees around, so no leaves, branches or seedlings, so it's really clean! You get a fabulous clear view looking over Daly City/Colma. They have name location place stones for each section so it's easy to find your loved one and each section have their own row letter. Along the lawn edges, there are faucet heads for ppl to wash their hands. There aren't bugs that crawl on your offerings (BUT BE AWARE OF SEAGULLS!!) We were at the highest hill, definitely worth the price my uncle paid. (As I mentioned above, you get an amazing view) Today's weather was high winds and chance of rain. Luckily, it was only sun and high winds. I didn't dress warm like you're in Chicago, which I regret because I was shivering!! Last week, I got semi sunburn on my t-zone and chest at the other Cypress Lawn & Chinese Cemetery, I came prepared today with sunscreen & scarf. We burned our Joss papers like all Chinese families do, there's no hiding or avoiding the smoke and ashes. But it's all part of the festivities. Another pro! So for those Pokémon Go fanatics, they have pokestop & pokegym!

The workers here are amazing from the front office folks to the groundskeepers. They all take pride in working for the cemetery and keeping it running very well.

There is seating for about 100 people and HDMI hook ups to use a large screen TV for a photo show if that is what someone wants. It's also a beautiful cemetery up on a hill with a nice view.

You would think after 15+ years of coming, I would know where my great grandmothers headstone is. Nope! They need to add location lettering or sections to make it easier. And parking is no joke. People double park and still park hella out where they make it hard for bigger SUV's and trucks to get through. There's no line indicator for car spots so cars park bumper to bumper or take up 2 spots. And some families don't leave for a whole 2 hours, they literally set up like it's a picnic at the park with umbrellas and tables. Sigh .. Considering it's a Chinese Cemetery, you would think they know our traditional by now. We like to BURN money! But it's always so hard to find a burning dumpster. And when another family is using one or almost done, we don't want to rush them because we want the money and prayer paper to burn throughly so it reaches are families. I have seen families bring their own burning tins. These past 2 years. They have removed a lot of trees and flatten out the ground for more plot. My grandpa's plot is on the upper right side (newer plot) and it's quite hard to walk there. There's a small incline ground walkway from the middle plot, it would be a good idea to add a small stairway, so it's easier for my Grandmom and other grandparents who have a difficult time walking and less dangerous. Even tho, all these 'negative' things I've mentioned, I still give it 5 stars because this is where my family is buried. Where the rest of my alive family comes together and visit and share memories.

My family was so appreciative of how Annette helped us get through this very difficult time. She was patient, empathetic, gave great suggestions, guided us through the whole process and was so caring. They allowed us to decorate the chapel a few hours before, had ample seating and parking and a huge projector screen for slideshows and great speakers. I would definitely recommend Garden Chapel to my family and friends. They are not only in it for financial gain, but they truly care about your experience with them. To put icing on the cake, we were sent a card in remembrance of my Mom's one year death anniversary. It was such a nice touch and really encouraged me to write this review.
