Wonderful quirky shopping experience. Lovely people. A pleasure to look around the grounds. A cosy little glass gazebo/house structure to so and have a coffee. Great experience. I'll definitely return.
Ok - so this one is a little difficult to rate. If you're into the sort of things that they sell, then it's probably a 5-out-of-5 because they have a lot of 'interesting' things for sale. If you're not into the things that they sell, then it's probably about a 2-out-of-5. To give you an idea of what the business is about, their own web site uses the terms 'unique', 'quirky' and 'enchanting', and I think that it if you go in with expectations along those lines, then you won't be disappointed.
Very quirky and interesting place. It's small but cute. It's free to look around but they do ask for donations. They also have a store with fairly decent prices. If you want a day of adventure I'd say start here and explore the area. Sparta is a pretty cute town.
I can certainly see the appeal of the store for those who like knick-knacks, novelties and country market-style gifts but the whole experience was missing something for me. The folk art in the gardens was varied but not as fun and beautiful as other installations I have seen elsewhere. Given food isn't allowed I would have expected a nice tea/wine garden and and baked goods for sale but none could be found. All in all likely a great activity for those who enjoy harp-playing and handicrafts in the forest but just not my cup of tea and not sure how you could spend more than an hour here. Important note: no food or smoking is allowed on the property and pets must be left in cars (excluding service animals).
Had a fabulous day. Spent 2 hours exploring and thoroughly enjoyed the whimsical art of various sorts. Disappointed to find that bringing food is Not allowed. Hence, the lovely picnic lunch we planned after our 2 hour drive from Toronto had to be hastily packed away. But a Lovely day anyway.
A totally different garden type setting in very large and tall trees. Various displays made from recycled materials. The store sells a variety of goods, wood carvings, bird houses, clothing, candles etc all at reasonable prices. No charge to walk around and view the gardens
Beautiful, whimsical relaxing place. I enjoyed it very much.
Great place to find that special gift no one would expect
Quaint place. Loved the lovely things they sell. Bought a bird house
One of the best road trip stop off points in the windsor-toronto 401 corridor. It's a bit off the beaten path in Sparta ontario, but we'll worth the detour. We find something new there everytime we visit. Whimsical, relaxing and magicaldon't miss this place!
