Most of the walks through gardens have ramps. There is an elevator in the main building and one in the parking area. The Japanese garden doors have steroids but you can view from above. It's worth going!!

How long does it take to see everything?

Victoria O'Tool | Jul 9, 2022
Steven Damo | Jul 9, 2022

2 to 3 if just strolling around without the tour guide

Jessica L. | Nov 7, 2019
Dee Star | Nov 7, 2019

I am confused... Is there an actual "admission fee" of $18.00 or is it a "recommended~donation" starting around $18.00 but please feel free to leave less if one so desires or simply can not afford such a steep amount??? When I show up @ this dump I plan on being broke + I can't wait to see how much loot I can panhandle while roaming around the grounds in search of lost wallets!!!

What is the refund policy for inclement weather? I have six tickets for the garden and it looks like it’s going to be a rainy afternoon.

Matt Poggi | Nov 7, 2018
M. Nuñez | Nov 7, 2018

It depends if you are a member or not. You should call the Hillwood Estates an inquire with them. However, you should know that many of the exhibits (the Hillwood House, greenhouse, etc) are indoors.
