I went with my wife and kids here on several occasions. The prices are reasonable and we all had a great time. Spring is a good time to go when so much is in bloom. They have cool trails, a place to eat and a...

Descanos Gardens is really beautiful. Spend the day there and you can leave feeling renewed. It's usually not crowded and the gardens are well maintained. Try and go when the camellias are in bloom - their...

Tucked in a residential neighborhood, Descanso Gardens is easy to miss if you've never been there. Though small in comparison to other gardens in the area, Descanso is worth a stop (or many). Concrete paths...

My toddler and I really love this place. We got a memebership when he was just a year old and have been going every other week or so for the last 2 1/2 years. There's so much to do there - the ducks, crayfish,...

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THIS PLACE! I like it more than the Huntington, because it's not usually crowded and it's just really quiet. It's so gorgeous. The rose gardens are something out of a movie. Well kept, but a...

A membership here will keep you and your toddler happy for hours at a time, strolling through nature and looking for frogs, fish and ducks!

Although Descanso is amazing during Spring and Summer, it's a peaceful an tranquil place to walk and rest anytime of the year. They're known for their camelias and their roses...and in full bloom the color is...

A wonderful place to experience the outdoors and let the city kids get out in it for a while. You may have to do a lot of running if your 2 year old decides to make a mad dash for it

They take cash. Parking if Free. Admission is only $5. $4 for students with id. I have been going to the gardens since I was just able to walk. Decanso is spanish for rest. That is just what you experience!

It's a nice quite place with beautiful landscaping. During the summer, on the weekends there is live music. I have been there several time and have enjoyed myself each time.

This definitely isnt the prettiest garden Ive been to, but its worth a visit. My husband and I took my parents here and thought it would be a full afternoon. It wasnt. The garden only takes an hour or so to...

Some of the nicest walks and best birding around. For $5 you can walk through a variety of landscapes. One of my favorites is the birding post at the south end. Here you can sit and look over pines and hikers...

They have a model train you can ride that travels through parts of the park. It costs a dollar or two and is always a winner with the kids. Buy a year pass for either Descanso Garders or the LA County...

Quite a bit more laid-back and less formal than Huntington Gardens in Pasadena, but every bit as breathtaking. What you would want your backyard to look like (if you had one). Admission is only $5.
