“Absolutely stunning garden grounds - would definitely recommend coming back in summer.”
From the reviews
We really enjoyed our visit. The trolls were a lot of fun to walk around and find. So many different flowers and plant varieties. Meditation garden was peaceful and stops along the water were great views. Well worth the price and a must see in the area.
Love the peaceful walk, the rivers, flowers and the trolls. My first visit with my partner on our first year anniversary. Most staff were friendly. I really like the trolls and nature. The native rocks are very inspirational. I would visit again.
Absolutely stunning garden grounds - would definitely recommend coming back in summer. We mainly came here for the trolls so staff were still planting and weeding as it’s not prime season yet. The trolls are a must see! We love hunting for the Travis Dambo trolls. Plenty of parking, even handicapped parking.
Getting married at Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens
Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens is a public beach or park, so a ceremony here almost always needs a permit from the managing city, county, or state parks office — and the rules matter: many public beaches cap your guest count, set ceremony windows, and restrict what you can set up (some ban chairs, arches, and amplified sound entirely). There's no on-site coordinator, catering, or weather backup, so you'll bring your own vendors and a rain plan. The payoff is a stunning setting at a fraction of a private venue's cost. Start with our public-beach permit guide, then call the local office to confirm this season's rules.
