Spend an entire lazy day here. Bring a book , find the hammock , take a nap, have a picnic or explore. Bonus: bring along an art history buff who can point out the paintings the sculptures are imitating

Olga Eps

Awesome way to spend time with your friends / family. Very realistic statues and a lot of stuff to look at. Also lots of opportunities for Instagram moments (if that is ur thing)

When you walk in, it doesn't even feel like you're in NJ. You feel transported to Europe or Asia. There are over 250 sculptures - 35 beautiful acres - peacocks running wild. It's great fun! Read more

Great place to wander & appreciate art . One visit doesn't do it justice, think of what each season is like! Do stop at Rats to eat, drink, sit outside by the water...

Prateek Solanki

The restaurant in the evening is set in a magical setting, lovely place overall. Must visit.

Tomek Grabiński

A lot of wonderful sculptures.The most I like the work of M. Abakanowicz and sculptures based on Manet's paintings.They are so realistic....

Dan

Be sure to try and find a peacock walking around. They make for great pictures!

Selina R.

Excellent French food . Love the whole menu! Love the decor n feeling the restaurant provides. Highly recommend.

Wanderlust

This is a beautiful place. A bit steep on entry fees, but it's free to explore after eating at Rats (which I don't recommend, honestly).

Elysha Johnson

Beautiful little retreat. Friendly people, cool atmosphere and they have PEACOCKS!! Add to your bucketlist.

Mike Fraietta

You see that door that says "No Entrance" near Rats ? Yeah go through that door and don't miss out on Renoir's "Luncheon of the Boating Party."

Mary Stewart

Beautiful all the time but best when the weather is good for walking.

Ruxandra Barb

Fabulous during Holiday Season for the night lights and during all other seasons for the sculptures and landscaping :)

Lucky Monkey

They say "no outside food allowed" but lines at the cafes tend to get very long on weekends. If you aren't obnoxious about it, you most likely can get away with bringing your own picnic .

Marie B

Probably the most fun you can have at a sculpture garden . Has both indoor and outdoor stuff & it's all really good.
