Very nice. Unfortunately, southern Illinoisans are too stupid to understand the car lengths per 10mph reaction time braking physics which makes the drive there hell and the police refuse to enforce traffic laws, but the garden itself is nice.

The Gardens have many pretty areas of plantings, especially the butterfly garden. The lake with the fountain is picturesque. There is lots of shade in the summer, pretty color in the spring, and the colors are amazing in the fall. In the winter they have a tree walk, with information on interesting varieties around the property.
