    After reading the reviews on Google and Yelp my fiancé and I were excited to bring our son here to spend some time outdoors and check out the gardens. The woman at the desk who greeted us was very kind and polite. We arrived a little less than 2 hours before closing, so we were expecting to pay a little less than the $15 suggested donation but we were charged full price. No big deal, we were looking to experience something fun and different outdoors. While we did enjoy ourselves, the gardens were a bit disappointing. The lack of signage near the flowers made it impossible to know what exactly we were looking at. The art was very different and neat, but something explaining what it was would've been a nice addition to have there. I also disliked that at one exhibit there was an electric fence surrounding it, but no signs indicating that there were bees inhabiting that area. Having a baby, that was a bit concerning. Overall it was an experience that was unique and it was a bonus to be able to be outdoors, but I don't think we would visit again. The suggested donation of $15 per person is a little bit too much in my opinion for what the site offers. Some areas just looked like there were trash heaps. I also didn't like how the trails weren't marked and the map that was given to us wasn't very detailed. It was cool to see some of the sculptures and the gardens were beautiful, but it was small and not worth it in my personal opinion.

    We hired Scenic Nursery to do a comprehensive landscaping project at our lake home. Glenn Caron and…read moreNate were absolutely spot on with their assessment of what we needed to improve drainage and make pathways, including beautiful granite steps leading to the house. Incredible work for a very competitive price and we were glad to use a local company with an extensive wealth of knowledge. Would definitely hire again!

    Does not stand by their guarantee!…read more All my plants that were already in my yard are gorgeous, healthy, and thriving. The only plants that are dying are the ones that came from Scenic nursery. I also addressed my concerns with Glenn (the owner) within the one-year guarantee period (I have email records of this), and I discussed my concerns directly with him when they were here to mulch. At this point, I will take this as a loss, and you will lose a customer. Edited to say, you should see the emails that I received because he was unhappy that I left a negative review! The owner is unhinged! Regarding those emails..... Friday night I emailed Mr. Caron: "Hi Glenn, Just an FYI. - 4 azaleas & 2 rhododendrons completely dead. Only plants we are having issues with." He responded that he believes a dog is urinating on the plants. As I subsequently told him, my dogs are on an electric fence and UNABLE to go in the gardens. The plants are also in different parts of the garden. What is most concerning is how the owner has handled a customer disagreeing with him. Rather than keeping this about the plants and his guarantee, he began personally attacking my character because I challenged his explanation and left an honest review. These are emails I've received from him: "You feel better now with your lies of omission on the ratings sites? Im not worried we have many other counter reviews and i reply to all none 5 star reviews. Let the people decide! You will eventually pay for your lawlessness and defamation. I had a hunch you were like this" And: "Good bye Enough, Live with your consequences, I am ! I stick with what I have stated and NO it was not all your dogs it was YOU too with your neglect !I also could see very well how you are not all there from when I showed up to see that you destroyed most of the plants that were in your yard without consulting any experts to try and save replace or transplant any of them. You had very expensive plants there and you had no idea what to do with them . Your improper process and plans regarding your own landscape is very evident yet you seem to be the expert...ENOUGH , i have no further need to communicate with a character like yours. ! I DID try and make things right evidenced by what we DID do ! You just dont care about that but only how you feel and what you think happened which is far from the truth . AND AGAIN I SAW your dog do it and i have a witness besides! So deny it all you want as all you have are your own illusions and your unrighteous character ! Your vindictiveness shows by your defamation post on YELP( which is a sucky site anyway) and google of which i have replied for those who will review it. MY work speaks for itself and i challenge you to find anyone better. GO ahead and see. PAY thru the nose too! I KNOW MY BUSINESS inside and out and this industry to the tune of 40 + years. You ARE messing with an expert and telling me im wrong ! Suppose you tell your doctor or your accountant the same ! It doesn't matter you made your bed now Lay in it . It's MOOT to continue discuss as YOUR ACTIONS have ruined this relationship as i am sure you have done to others" This is how the owner speaks to a customer over a disagreement about 6 dead plants and a guarantee. Instead of handling my concern professionally, he chose to attack me personally and make judgments about my character. Yikes! As for "neglect": again, most of our plants came from Scenic Nursery and are thriving. We also transplanted lilies & hostas that were here when we bought the house, and they're thriving. Our soaker hose runs 2 hours a day, plus we physically water. No neglect here! I stand by my honest review of my experience. The owner's own emails speak for themselves. I would also encourage anyone considering Scenic Nursery to read the other reviews from dissatisfied customers -- and, just as importantly, read Glenn's responses to those reviews. How a business owner responds when a customer is unhappy says a lot. After receiving the emails above and seeing how other negative reviews have been handled, I think customers can draw their own conclusions about the professionalism and integrity being demonstrated here.

It's an oasis of green trees, bushes, and grasses dotted with the most beautiful variety of flowers. There's classic statuary, stone walls, an artists cabin, scattered chairs and benches, the stately old home and, of course, marvelous views of the calm Salmon Falls River. If you look closely, you might spot a heron or several turtles coming out of the mud, marching slowly toward the tidal waters as the river's edge fills back in. You can even access Vaughan Woods from a footpath, if you'd like to get a hike in. Of course, you can always bring a blanket, a picnic, and just enjoy the gorgeousness that surrounds you. Bathroom situation: in season there's a wee house-type structure that opens into a single, large bathroom. It appears to be cleaned and stocked regularly.
