Alfred B. Maclay Gardens State Park

Yes, we went kayaking on Saturday and they were blooming.

Ok

They are allowed before entering the garden park. As mentioned by the others you can have a picnic/grill. But once you enter into the garden park, no bottled waters are allowed at this point.

Depends on how much depth you want to go into. There are many trails to be explored. A quick visit is also possible if that's what you're looking for. This beautiful park can keep you entertained for a few hours or an entire day.

It's a state park tended by state caretakers.

Yes they do

Yes there is a nice Lake to swim in

The entrance fees for the park: JUNE-DECEMBER $6 per vehicle (Limit 2-8 people) $4 per vehicle (single occupant) $2 per person (pedestrians,bicyclists, extra passenger) JANUARY-APRIL 30 (Blooming Season) $6 Adult Garden Entry $3 Children Garden Entry (ages 2-12)

Yes, but there is one part where they're not allowed, the garden

Not in gardens but they are allowed on hiking trails.

Hi Jared. May-December it is $4 per car with only one person, or $6 per car with 2-8 people. Pedestrians and cyclists are $2.

Hi Stacy! Dogs on leashes are welcome at the Recreation Area and on the hiking trails. Dogs are not allowed inside the formal gardens, even on leashes. Service animals trained to perform specific tasks are welcome anywhere in the park.

Hi Carol! Dogs are welcome in our Recreation Area and on the hiking trails. Dogs are not allowed in the formal gardens.

I would visit the park. I'm not sure the cost of a wedding but the park employees are extremely helpful and I'm sure they would let you tour that area.

Nope no camping

I really don't know what dirt bike is but MTB definitely yes ^^

Fishing is allowed with a license. we haven't personally encountered snakes or gator. Yet, since it is a natural habitat they should be there...

Yes there's a place to kayak , there are snakes and Gators however they typically don't show during the day

State Park enterance fee is $6/car; in the spring it is also $6/person to enter the gardens. Lots of shade and pretty places for a picnic.

Yes, even "crowded" days aren't that crowded. But if you really like being alone, Monday would be better.
