Adam AshleyMay 21, 2017This is one of the greatest places in Los Angeles County. Every film or tv show that you can think of has filmed here. The peacocks are gorgeous too.
Greg DronenMarch 5, 2017Very pretty place. It's divided by continents and they have a free shuttle that goes around the whole arboretum. And the peacocks just roam around giving you plenty of opportunities to take pictures.
Joseph CAugust 27, 2014Queen Anne Cottage was used in the old TeleVision Series Fantasy Island with the late Ricardo Montalban & Hervé Villechaize from 1977- 1984 on ABC & was reprised again from 1998- 1999.

- Los AngelesOctober 30, 2013The main attraction is the 1885 Queen Anne Cottage, best known for its role on TV's Fantasy Island and as the Florida home of Dustin Hoffman and Barbra Streisand in Meet the Fockers.
Lupe LoopsFebruary 23, 2011Free admission the 3rd Tuesday of the month otherwise $8 for adults, $6 for students.... Its very beautiful and scenic. Nice place to hang out all day and feel like you are in a magical place that i- @socalwithkidsAugust 6, 2011Take a walk on the paths, off the paved road. You'll see (and hear) a lot more of nature off the road. If you go with little ones, it's easy to navigate a jogger on the dirt paths. More at link below. Read more
Well Today l went to help them by giving back to the community it was great by helping them with the Thanksgiving distribution for the families.
nikkiAugust 12, 2017incredible selection of climate-specific gardens and greenhouses, integrated with sculpture and wild peacocks
Ross SheingoldSeptember 14, 2014It's like your own private garden if you visit in the morning on a weekday. Beautiful, underrated place in LA County- Joseph CAugust 27, 2014Katy Perry filmed her music video Roar here. Destiny's Child filmed their Survivor video @ the waterfall area. Also filmed here: Tarzan, Jurassic Park, Murder She Wrote & more http://www.arboretum.org
- Well Today l went to help for the Thanksgiving Distribución by giving my time it was great to help them their food boxer in their car.
- It's really great to go and get involve with the community at the event.
- @socalwithkidsMarch 9, 2011Be sure to visit the Fantasy Island house on the grounds, and wear comfortable walking shoes, as there's a lot to see!

Trina BeanaJanuary 27, 2014Originally the home of Hollywood actor and writer Chief Buffalo Child Long Lance. He committed suicide in 1932 in the parlor of the home after a reporter discovered he wasn't really a Native American.- I always love to help out every year in November for the food distribution.
After summer is the best time to go, especially in the afternoons on weekdays! Not as crowded and very peaceful.
.Rlene RamirezOctober 21, 2015It's so nice and peaceful. If u live in the city. And wanna kind of get away but don't wanna drive to far. Then go hear. So tranquil. Love it
Juston PayneJanuary 9, 2012Oh, sure, it's a lovely garden, but the stars of the show are the peacocks that roam about the grounds.- Today I'm volunteering at the event it will be the blast.
Kenneth ZieglerFebruary 6, 2011More peacocks that you'd ever expect - even if you were warned ahead of time. Some of them like to show off their feathers. Also, climb to the top of the waterfall.
Kevin HamanoFebruary 13, 2014Peacock and geese everywhere! The outskirts could use some work though as they're kind of boring compared to the middle areas.
Troy ParkinsAugust 11, 2013Although Marvin is no longer here, Michael Finestein runs the symphony like Marvin would. Be sure to come out!
Kevin HsiaoJanuary 13, 2013Best time to go is in the morning between 9-10 if you want to feed the squirrels
Calliope PorterJanuary 28, 2014bathrooms are kind of spread out. if you're with a slow walker, plan ahead!
Every first Monday is roasted peacock with a Rosemary au jus side of garlic mashed potatoes at the cafe
Hilary CableMarch 15, 2011Check out the Madagascar thorn forest. Peacocks are struttin' their stuff in March and April.
Dustin ThompsonApril 12, 2013The woman at the front counter was kind of a beyotch, but we didn't let that ruin a beautiful day at the garden
Maria GilbertJanuary 12, 2010The third Sunday of each month is Picnic Day. Bring a blanket and enjoy, but don't feed the peacocks ;) Read more
