    This is a nice place to go if you want to spend a couple of hours at a couple of decent museums and some short outdoor walks...It's a nice break from the bustle of the strip if you're visiting. Of course some of the museums are geared towards the younger set, and the gardens you can probably walk through in about 10 or 15 minutes, but it's a nice place to sit and relax and view the beautiful plant life. The museums are geared mostly to kids under 10. But the state museum is quite good...

    These gardens are beautifully maintained and have such a diverse array of plant life growing here! Weren’t any crowds in the early afternoon, and a food truck was parked in the courtyard area inside the gardens since the cafe was closed. Highly recommend!

    It's a wonderful place to bring the entire family. The kids will have fun, the adults will learn about the history of how the pioneers settled Las Vegas. Very interesting and lots of things to see and show.. 1 day maybe won't be enough to see..

    Loved this place!!! Originally went just seeking a botanical garden but found sooo much more. Spent about 3 hrs here and there was still so much we didn't do. Definitely going back. Not bad for the price!!!

    Forget the casinos, this place is fantastic. It has hiking trails, a butterfly garden, two museums, an amazing Cafe, a recreated 1905 town, and a whole building dedicated to water conservation. You'll learn a lot. A great place for kids and adults. Lastly if you have allergies the cafe has plenty of options. We did not park but it looks like they have ample parking. You can also uber/lyft from the strip.

    Kids love the rotating exhibit, butterfly habitat, splash pad and small animal area. Two children's playground - small toddler size with splash pad and big kids. Train around the park is more for adults as they give history if the area that kids may find boring.

    I love the butterfly exhibit when it is there. I hope they have the "Trunk or Treat" this year, my kids love it! Season pass is so worth the money, this place gets my kids out and walking! Photos are from various visits😍

    A very large botanical garden, featuring cactus and plants that flourish in Nevada. Lots of walking trails and beds of flowers. There are volunteer master gardeners to answer questions. Even in the winter it is interesting. When I was there, we happened upon a rodeo beauty queen photo shoot.

    A beautiful garden in the literal heart of Las Vegas! Went on a cloudy summer day but there was plenty of opportunities to take a moment in some shade. The butterfly exhibit wasn’t open but I’ll definitely be going back once it does! It costs money to enter the springs reserve but this is free to check out once inside.

    This is a wonderful facility. You can't even tell you're right by the Las Vegas strip!

  • 5/5 David O. 3 years ago on Google
    The people were awesome, kind and helpful. Talked to five different people they all smiled and were really caring people. This is on top of the awesome garden paths and trails. We joined because it is a great place to walk and we want to be part of their club.

  • 5/5 Jess K. 1 year ago on Google
    Beautiful gardens and a couple of nice small museums. Spent 3 hours there easily. Would recommend if you have some time to kill. Will be going back just to walk the park.

  • 5/5 Jackie G. 2 years ago on Google
    Excellent day, great for all ages, a couple of discovery museums, I suggest going to the Nevada state museum first. Water park, butterflies, train ride.

    Yo, the Gardens at the Spring Preserves is quite beautiful. I recommend a walk through if you need to decompress. It's a very therapeutic atmosphere. Pretty flowers, plants, birds, insects and other wildlife surround you as you ponder the meaning of life. Take a step into the unknown and visit sometime✌😎🦗

  • 5/5 Christine V. 4 years ago on Google
    Nice peaceful place to visit if you need some downtime in Vegas. Easy to get to and beautiful desert gardens!

  • 4/5 Reyna M. 4 years ago on Google
    Kids had a great time at the dino exhibit.

  • 4/5 Mark P. 4 years ago on Google
    Part of the overall complex is a botanic garden with several themes, wetlands being the most surprising among them.

  • 5/5 Haylie A. 4 years ago on Google
    Fun place to spend the day. Learned a lot about the Las Vegas desert wildlife and history of the city. Very interactive and lots to do. They had a butterfly exhibit while we were there and it was one of my favorite parts, as well as Boomtown.

  • 5/5 Leif S. 2 years ago on Google
    Gorgeous garden but you need to get there early in the Summertime. They stop running the train if the heat is over 105°F. We'll be back.
