  Practically anytime of the year you visit this site you will be rewarded. Easy to access just off I29 on the East side of Brookings.

  We went to the McCory Gardens open house in early August, and we were amazed at how much bigger and more beautiful it is. Many plantings have been added, and more structures have been installed. There was also a beautiful new fountain. Worth a stop if you enjoy the natural beauty of the Gardens.

  McCrory Gardens is wonderful in any season. They have a straw bale house and visitor center that emphasizes sustainability. End of August ice cream social features SDSU ice cream, creator of "cookies and cream" ice cream.

  These gardens were spectacular this summer due to lots of rain & great plant choices by the students/staff. There is a wide variety of flowering & green plants as well as some fun features like the cottage & waterfall. The new Visitor's Center is gorgeous. There are weddings going on every weekend. It's a very peaceful place to walk around & enjoy. There are plenty of benches if you want to bring a book & read.

  If you're in brookings in the summer or late fall when the gardens are in bloom this is a must see! Definitely one of the best landscaped gardens I've been to.

  We live in Brookings and visit MG every so often. There is the "main" part, and then more area in back for a longer walk. Nothing stunning, just a nice place for a walk away from people and traffic.

  I love the variety of flowers and it is well kept, many places to sit down and enjoy the beauty, and there is a lovely new visitor center that has rooms for rent for various events.

  Growing up in Brookings, McCrory Gardens has a lot of sentimental value. Every time I go back to visit, weather permitting, I take a walk through the gardens. The horticulturists and planners go a great job arranging the plants/flowers so that there's something to look at every season. There are beautiful grassy areas where people can just sit and relax, pack a picnic, or whatever else. It's long been a popular place to get married and have pictures taken. It's a free garden to walk through, but if you enjoyed your trip, there's a freewill donation box.

  When you need some inspiration and quiet this is a great place to go from May through Oct. especially if you love gardening, flowers, trees, landscaping ideas. The welcome center has lots of great events and workshops.

  Well labelled plants, tastefully designed, used to try new varieties of plants & shrubs, showcase All-American selections. Great way to see if the glowing seed catalog descriptions grow like that in SD
