    Beautiful place I wish it could be moved to historic Houma. It makes you think about where did the artist go? I hope they preserve it and redo the damage the storm did to it.

    A wonderful gem in this part of our great country. Individual art expression embraced by the community is always a pleasure to experience. Memories take time to make, so make the drive with your family and have a picnic. Restoration is in process from storm damage. Keep up the good work, going to be worth it.

    Many years ago I had the pleasure of watching him work on this beautiful & peaceful garden. He was very reclusive and kept to himself... I was visiting during the very early morning and he was working on the lighthouse part. Ask him if I could take photo's and his only request was none taken of him. Truly a place where you can sit & reflect. Picture's taken many years ago when he was just finishing up - unsure of year but was in full color and recently done.

    Beautiful and Unique! When you walk in, you feel like you've been transported to a fairy tale. The man who did this had incredible talent! Very beautiful. We went on a Saturday, wasn't very busy at all. There was a student/ park employee there answering questions and telling the story behind it. Absolutely recommend!! I plan to go back. Lots of benches to sit on and just take it all in.

    Quaint, out of the way, roadside attraction. Beautiful setting along the bayou. Very peaceful. Somewhat macabre, as you could tell through the expression of the sculptor that there must be some internal conflicting process going on in his mind. The garden seems to have many themes and tell many stories, however, most are left up to the viewer’s own interpretation. It’s worth the stop especially for the beautiful scenery along the way. Admission is free. Guided tours are on weekends from 11-4. Open every day from sunrise to sunset.
