    Beautiful little park hidden right off Military Rd. Its very peaceful with beautiful flowers, trees and a little lake. I love the troll village for the kids and kid at heart adults.

    We do family fall picture here almost yearly. It is very well kept, has a small waterfall and great spots for pictures. There is even a children's garden

    Cute little park. I recently just realized it's bigger than what I thought. They have a little walking trail. Behind the office house. Me and my fiance got some amazing photos together❤️ I think it maybe bigger than that but we just discovered the walking trail last week. We saw a lil snapper at the pond🐢 great place in town to take the kids 💋 I gave it a 4 just because of the small size . The owners keep up with it very well . I can't wait to see what it looks like once spring flowers start blooming 🌺🌹

    This little park is so unique. I don't know who does the landscaping here but it's always clean and well kept. Worth the visit!

    I love that there is a place to sneak away to right in town. Nice place to have a lunch break or sit and read. The upper section has changed a lot the last couple of years. Would love to see some unique native plants added to the end, past the gazebo. The little pond is such a dreamy place to spend the morning, and the fairy garden is enjoyable for all ages. Nice place for little ones to run and play just next to the parking lot so they don’t have to go far, along with a sharing library to exchange books. Thoughtfully constructed little gardens.

    The water garden was the best part. It was super boom boom yeah. Seemed as if they had limited space to fully express their art. Saw a momma deer and a boy with antler growing deer. And two baby with spot. I love them. Paths were nice to walk on.

    The wooded path was nice but there weren't many blooming trees for May. The end was muddy and the waterfall was dry. In the Conifer area there wasn't anything blooming but that waterfall was nice. Small but would be prettier in the summer.

    What a beautiful little place to take some pictures or escape the hustle and bustle, nestled right in the middle of town.

    A beautiful place with plenty of quiet spots. We loved. We saw a doe and three fawns, squirrels and many birds.

    Small but beautiful garden. Would recommend.

    We went pretty late in the season but it was still beautiful and lots of fun

    This place is very relaxing and enjoyable to walk through... I've been to this place several times and I always see something different... A great place for the whole family...

    Very nice gardens in the middle of a residential neighborhood. Quite an array of interesting trees! Cool find!

    7 acre Small park with tons of trees and plants. Most of which are well marked. There is a fairy garden, conifer garden and some other areas. Currently a scare crow competition going on. It would appear that it's an annual thing. There is a smell, touch, taste area in the fenced in area under the big buckeye tree in fenced in area. East place to walk around for an hour or maybe 2 if you read and stop and take it in. Plenty of chipmunks and squirrels playing around.

    A beautiful free public garden and park with short walking trails and beautiful flowers and vegetables maintained by the community and it's garden clubs. Wonderful way to kill a couple of hours with no budget in the Kate spring or summer.

    Wonderful trails, beautiful place for a photo shoot, and great activities for kids. This parkbis right in the middle of a residential neighborhood. It is one Zanesville's best kept secrets.

    An absolute delight every time I visit. It’s best when everything is in bloom, but still lovely in every season. VERY thankful there was a porta potty!!

  • 4/5 Rebecca A. 1 year ago on Google
    This is a really cute little place with multiple gardens.

  • 5/5 David B. 11 months ago on Google
    Beautiful, quiet retreat in the middle of town. Entrance is from Euclid. On a summer day, there is enough shade to keep you a little cooler if you're trying to stay out of the sun. There is a portable restroom available. We found this to be a delightful place to take a walk and have lunch.

    Beautiful spot to just rest and be with nature! Perfect picnic spot! Highly recommend spending some rest and relaxation time here!

    Such a beautiful stop with my girl. Walked through the trails. Everything is kept up, it’s not trashed by the scum of zanesville. I was very impressed by this hidden gem

    This is a small but diverse garden with two main parts. The conifer garden has a lovely pond and small waterfall. The woodland garden has nice tree covered paths and places to sit and relax.

    Absolutely STUNNING! I'd heard about this place but didn't ever think it would be as beautiful as it is. It rivals the Metroparks in Columbus, which we in Zanesville sincerely need to invest in, to enrich our area and the people who benefit from time in nature.

    Cute little park. Lots of signage around the different trees and bushes to identify them. Very cute and quiet

  • 4/5 Debbie T. 1 year ago on Google
    It has been a nice place to take Homecoming pictures The only problem was the pond was covered with duckweed and it was very wet by the waterfall due to the rain we've had. It might be difficult for some to walk down the gravel path. Needless to say there was plenty of places to get great pictures.
