I visited the William Paca Garden during a guided tour of Historic Annapolis. The William Paca House & Garden is a National Historic Landmark, restored by Historic Annapolis to its colonial-era splendor.

Perhaps my expectations were too high. After all, we visited near the garden end of August. (I should note that we did not tour the house, only the garden). There's a $5.00 charge per person to enter the garden. It took us perhaps 30 minutes to walk through it. Described as a British formal garden by the lady working there, aside from the design of the garden there wasn't' much else that resembled the formal gardens that I have visited in England. There was little colour. Summer flowers were sparse. It was disappointing but as I mentioned we visited near the end of August; I expect that in the spring and early summer more colour from the roses would make the garden more vibrant.

Enjoyed the guided tour of the house and strolling the gardens on our own after. Always love to see history preserved and commend their efforts to do so. The gardens seem like a beautiful place to have a wedding. Lovely place to spend a little relaxation time, too.

Visited this home with some friends while visiting this beautiful city. Leaned a lot on the tour. Our tour guide was Miss Jenna. She was exceptional.

Just to hear about the heroic restoration alone is worth the trip. Excellent guide. Knows a lot about the house and answered all questions. But the gardens are unbelievable. Wonderful. Worth the eight dollar admission.

Enjoyed visiting the William Paca house and taking the tour. The gardens are lovely and we enjoyed our time strolling through them.

This garden was a real little gem. It is a beautiful recreation of Paca's original garden, in a formal 18th century style. Just lovely!

Beautiful gardens although the heat of the day kept us from too much wandering there. Nice little gift shop, well priced. Mansion tour was excellent and interesting. Good attention to period detail. Well trained, articulate and friendly docent -- great job Rachelle!

Our tour of the William Paca House and Garden was a delightful experience. The tour guide for the house did a wonderful job of explaining how the house was used when the Paca family lived there, and how the house and garden were restored from their earlier existence as a hotel and parking lot. The garden is in the old English style with its tiered gardens. The fish shaped pool is interesting. The house was restored to it original Georgian style when the Paca family lived there.Our tour guide had many stories (whether true or not is up to you) of events and happenings that took place in the house and in Annapolis during the period in which our country gained its independence. It was a very enjoyable tour. The house tour is about 30 minutes. The gardens you can tour on your own.

The ladies were very gracious when asked questions, even though they were very busy, the grounds are stunning.
