This place is pretty cute, especially around the holidays. They have lots of cute little shops and little places to eat or get treats. Halloween. It has plenty of places to sit and people watch as well of you are into that. Halloween though is a complete madhouse. Tons of people, not many places to park so people park on the sides of the road or places they shouldn't, too many people in the shops and places to eat. It is fun though if you are willing to brave the crowds.
I didn't shop the entire village because I was there for a spa appointment. The village is very cute. They had Christmas decor up. There were families taking professional photos using the village as background scenery. It is a family oriented place.
What a great place! Cool little shops with all kinds of goods and a very good restaurant to. We have a tradition to take Grandma Cary during October to see the witches it's a good time for all. December is also a good time to visit. There is a great little candy store that has excellent fudge and candy that you can't just find anywhere. Historic Gardner Village is a great place to visit.
I'm not sure exactly how to describe this place but I'll try. This is original the location of a mill from the 1800's that has been revitalized to commemorate the history of the location and added a new age twist to a pioneer theme. Complete with restaurant, even center, catering, quilting and home furnishing shops, petting zoo and much more. Located next to the Jordan River walking path, there is plenty to keep you busy. Oh, and did I mention the duck pond surrounded by fun shops? This place has a little bit of everything for most interests!
Attended Breakfast with a Witch for my first time and it was great! I'd only been once before during some other time of year and it was pretty dead. But at Halloween/fall it was hopping! Tons of little boutiques to wander through and the ambiance is well worth it. Bought some cute children's books at the book store.
We come here every year for the Witch events. The atmosphere is very quant and inviting. The shops are all local and unique. There are really good restaurant choices, and plenty of different stores for everyone in the family to enjoy. If you are around in the month of October, they have really cool activities almost every day for the kids, with face painting, booths, games, witches wondering for pictures.
Gardner Village is one of my favorite little places. It is quaint and charming. I love just walking through the village and seeing the shops and displays. Everything is well-maintained and easily accessible. I definitely recommend visiting during the Halloween season for a particularly fun experience.
This is a beautiful and delightful shopping "village." It is made up of small, old, quaint homes that have been relocated from elsewhere and turned into shops. The attempt is to recreate the feel of an old village before modern times. The landscaping is fantastic--anywhere you turn there are great places for pictures, including bridal/engagement. Great shops, focused mostly on clothing, furniture, decor, children, soap/lotion. Good eating options. Especially awesome in the fall "witchfest" period.
Took our daughter to the farm next to Gardner Village. She had been asking to go to a farm for a couple of months. So we did a quick research on Google. Super cheap, you only have to pay for the kids. It includes a pony ride. Our daughter really wanted to ride a horse. She loved it, won't stop talking about it, and wants to visit again. This is a rescue farm and only temporary. Here family's can feed, pet, and love the animals. The workers were very nice and friendly. There were baby bunnies that were so cute. You can adopt them when they are ready.
I always love going to Gardner Village around the holidays. They have such cute events. Like the witches around Halloween, and the elves during Christmas. It's a great family fun place. The village is comprised of historic building restored and hosting cute boutique shops.
Gardner Village is a unique experience and should be a stop for anyone visiting the state. And anyone living here to visit if they want a fun wholesome family night, or date night.
Came here with my wife and son. There are a of various shops to walk through. There are some fun unique shops such as just socks or yarn. It makes it fun to just explore. Plus the whole place is great for pictures.
A little old style micro village in the middle of a bustling city. It's a charming little group of stores. You can sometimes find ducks to feed and walk across the wooden bridge over a little pond filled with fish or you can ride a horse around for a fee. Fun for kids and adults. Specialty stores and adorable boutiques make up part of it along with a bakery and a candy store where you can watch taffy being pulled if you come at just the right time. One of my favorite places.
This is a fun place to visit. I haven't gone to the spa here or been to any of the restaurants, but the shops are cute although they are fairly overpriced. They do fun activities around holidays that kids and adults can enjoy: witch, elf and fairy decorations to name a few. The candy shop is top notch with a good variety of confections and an old fashioned taffy pulling machine that is fun to watch. They also frequently have free samples.
I love coming here with my daughter. Her favorite part is the farm. We come to feed the animals and go on pony rides. I love their witchfest event during Halloween, a lot of people go all out with their witch costumes and it's awesome to see their creativeness. Theirs tons of little shops and boutiques and during any one of their events they have face paintings and balloon animals. Archibalds is a great restaurant with great food. It is a really great place to take the family.
I love going to Gardner village for the atmosphere. But unfortunately when it comes to there furniture. The quality appears good, but it dose not last long at all. I purchased a table that cost me $2000. It has been less then 3 months of having the table and there are beep scratches in the chairs and table top. The veneer they have on the table top and chairs is made with very soft wood. I have had two others tables that cost far less and never had this problem. It is just me and my husband. We don't have children at this time I could not even imagen how bad the damage would be if we did. We have called Gardner village and we were just given the run around. They don't stand by there products. If you are looking for good long lasting table do not go to Gardner village for it.
