Very cool place! We enjoyed everything about our visit. The grounds are welcoming with the beautifully manicured flower beds. The staff is warm and friendly. They are very knowledgeable and informative... from the flowers to the working street organ to the windmill. A great place to visit!!

Stopped here for a quick visit on an RV trip. Beautiful grounds, lovely windmill, and enthusiastic staff who are eager to engage and teach about Dutch culture and the grinding process of the windmill. The gardens were well manicured and gorgeous. Kids enjoyed the carousel which runs every 30 min at no additional fee. The only downside was for as much as it cost to get in there wasn’t much to do except see the windmill, organ, and carousel. Was still worth the visit just thought it was a bit overpriced.

It is a very beautiful place with some aroma of Nederlands. The windmill is beautiful, you come into it but it has no stone so it is uncompleted. The country is peaceful. From my point of view, this place needs a restaurant to have lunch, brunch or just a coffee. If not, once you have turned it around, you have nothing more to do there.

This is a beautiful place to come and stroll, they have a marsh with all kinds of wildlife. The windmill is very fascinating to tour, the historic street organ was beautiful, just to see this historic gem and to see the inside and how it works was amazing and a wonderful learning experience. They have gift shops and a carousel that gives free rides every hour. I enjoyed my walk through this Netherlandish replica. I loved the women walking around in classic Dutch clothing and shoes. I recommend everyone take their family at least one time. You don’t have to go during the tulip festival I believe it’s something you can do all year round.

Hi Kristin. Yes, dogs are welcome in the park everywhere except in the windmill and shops (both buildings produce food products.) We do ask that furry friends are on a leash and their owners clean up after them. Thank you!

Are their any Dutch pastry shops at Windmill Island? If so, are they open during tulip time?

Ang Reviews | Apr 25, 2019
Windmill Island Gardens (Owner) | Apr 26, 2019

Hi Angela, our shops carry many Dutch goodies but not fresh made pastries if that is what you are looking for. Plenty of cookies, banket, candy, etc. but if you're looking for a Dutch bakery your best bet in Holland is de Boer Bros. Bakkerij. During Tulip Time we will be hosting 2 Dutch food options - Tante Nellie's kitchen in our pavilion (closed Sundays) and a Dutch food truck on the weekends. Both do have dessert options! Hope to see you soon!
