I didn't go inside the museum however the garden offers a truly peaceful, quiet, and beautiful experience. The timed entry system is great because I rarely encountered other visitors, enhancing the feeling of having the estate's garden all to myself. It was incredibly serene.

This little FREE museum has fantastic mesoamerican, Roman, and Byzantine art and artifacts in a beautiful setting. The attached gardens are not free but are a beautiful designed landscape mix of formal gardens and designed wilderness. Well worth the visit.

Surprisingly well curated museum of Byzantine art and pre-Columbian gold art. Provides a good value with free admission. Similar museum of pre-Columbian gold in San Jose, Costa Rica, is quite expensive for similar quality collection. Since museum opens about two hours before the gardens, I...Read More

It's a truly entertaining combination. I really enjoyed the exhibition, and it kept me engaged...Read More

Always good for a lovely day out, with sweeping lawns and manicured grounds. Some tips: if driving, parking on the museum side is usually a good bet. If you live in the DMV and plan on several visits through the summer, buy the season pass for...Read More

Our guide was so knowledgeable and his appreciation of the gardens was obvious. The progression of the garden rooms goes from formal English to Italianate palazzo. The mastery of Farrand to trick the eye with vanishing points makes the gardens appear larger. Since I visited...Read More
