The grounds are very large. There is a lowlands circuit, paved road with many pull-offs, that goes through several type of habitats. It is a great place for birding in spring and fall. Then there is a highland swamp, the Fern Glenn, that has two different types of swamp in a very small area with pitcherplants in one area. Plants are well pointed out. There are maps to explore the trail system and to see the flowers and animals living there. Both places are highly recommended, the Fern Glenn area particularly with children 4 years and up. There is also space for long hikes through pristine woodland for adults. This place is not well known, so you wont run into large groups - but you might encounter a brown bear! It's truly peaceful.

Landscape Architecture at its finest. The Innisfree Garden is a beautiful and relaxing journey through a series of outdoor spaces. A walk through the property presents scenic views across a small lake, small constructed waterfalls, art tucked in the landscape, old stone bridges, and a variety of wildlife. There is a lovely picnic area near the entry to have a snack or lunch. The property includes one long trail around the pond and a few side trails to explore. Every turn presents a new space to explore. While the entire site has a natural feel, there is an influence of Japanese garden design throughout. The property lends itself to a relaxing stroll or a quick hike.

Really amazing winery at tail end of the summer. Great tasting . Little bit disappointed with many customers bringing unruly dogs. If they are going to attack the wine stewards keep the furry four leggers home. Nice wines great history with I ❤ NY. The jazz band and nice food fixings were delicious !!! Would be back again. Bought a few bottles for the memories. Awesome scenery. Thank you
