About this place
A twelve-acre Japanese garden in Rockford with streams, waterfalls, winding paths, and ponds stocked with koi. Families can walk through the landscape, explore the different areas, and visit the on-site café for breakfast or lunch. The garden hosts seasonal programs including live music events and parent-child story time activities. Private tours of the historic Guest House and Frank Lloyd Wright Laurent House are also available.
