A-MAZING! That's what this place is. Whether you're a tourist or a local, this is an incredible place to visit if you're a fan of art. We were completely surprised by the vast size of the place and the sheer number of excellent sculptures. We visited with our teenage children and they all enjoyed it as well...recreating poses and interacting with some of the sculptures. There are many animal sculptures - horses, wolf, bunnies, fox, octopus; some really excellent people sculptures - the potato man, some cowboys, a grandmother in a chair; children's sculptures; and some abstract sculptures as well. They're really all very well done and the park just goes on and on.
The materials - largely bronze - are as fascinating as the sculptures themselves, to see the textures and techniques used to create one of a kind pieces of art. One unfortunate drawback to the park was that part of the park was closed off and tented while we were visiting. That was too bad. The other unfortunate part was being confronted by people asking us about various Pokemon-Go figures. I had no idea what they were asking me about. Please, go play your games at home and leave the sculpture lovers in peace.

We could have easily spent a couple of hours here walking the paths and enjoying the art. Give yourself plenty of time to visit and take them all in. It's truly an amazing sight. Kudos to Loveland for creating...

Read moreI love this place! There are so many sculptures and different pathways to choose from, you can literally walk up and down the corridor an endless number of times without exactly repeating the experience! It is whimsy, talent, and nature perfectly interwoven in the most idyllic of settings. The south end of the gardens provide stunning views of Lake Loveland, and cross into the North Shore Park area with playgrounds and even a miniature train while hosting many of Loveland's beach events and a huge outdoor stage and amphitheater. The northern 3/4 of the gardens are on the north side of 29th Street, and also feature both land and water sculptures blended into the landscape.
