Reviews of International Peace Garden (Gardener)

Michelle Claro

Awesome garden

Steve Arnold

The gardens are spectacular and well-maintained, who's interesting structures such as fountains and Towers. It is awesome that this park straddles both United States and Canada. You do not need a passport to return to the United States, however, you need identification. If you're traveling with children, be sure to bring their birth certificates.

UnorthodoxNerdGirl

Today was amazing that the peace garden. Seeing the succulent garden was amazing when it was below freezing outside. It was beautiful and relaxing. The rest the park even know it's not summer was beautiful and relaxing. The new executive director is carrying on the traditions of the park so well. We are very lucky to have this gym in our backyard.

Robert Willis

Beautiful place

Donna Klemke

Very scenic and we'll maintained.

Ken Kubischta

I loved the cactus garden the most. The whole garden was really interesting as well. I suggest bringing a passport. The border patrol agent let us back into the states but she wasn't happy about us not having it.

Ludicrous Fox

Such a neat place to go, great campground.

Fanny Behrens

Amazing place to spend and afternoon or day at. If not traveling to Canada, you will still need IDs because you will still pass through US Customs while coming out of the park. Passports preferred.

Tallal Ibad

Beautiful landscape. Lots of different plants and flowers. And entire gigantic display of cacti from all parts of the world. Various species of the more unusual plants. Totally an enjoyable excursion, don't pass it up!

Phil J. Merta

Nice

Sandy Newcomb

Very peaceful and serene. Beautiful!

jair bautista

Beautiful place

Philip Brett

Wonderful!

Josh Baker

Boring. And it says open 24 hrs. Which is correct however nothing else there is open. None of the shops or anything. They all closed about 7pm.

Matthew Confeld

It was so fun thinking I was in 2 countries on where I was standing. The flowers were beautiful and it was fun learning the history. This is a good place to visit

Stephen Bello

Awesome place to go see

Ron Hyvari

I have family near here so I visit when I can. It is a nice place to walk around and enjoy the gardens.

Bob Albin

Truly an awesome experience. Beautiful gardens! $20 for a carload of people. In my opinion this is an underutilized park/garden. Highly recommend.

Joe Lesmeister

Weeds could be taken better care of.

Anthony Rath

Great place to visit. Lots of pretty garden spaces, great spots to picnic, a wonderful campground. Our youngest son flipped out when we crossed the border and thought it was the coolest thing ever. Go hiking here. No one was on the trails, …

Brian Ramsey

Was an Amazing place to visit!

Bryce Dahle

Loved it great place to visit

Drake Heide

We love this Garden, it is beautiful, our favorite part was the cactus garden.

Cynthia Rolle

It's nice and clean. Great place for camping

D Eilbeck

Really cool place to go

Rachel H

This is a beautiful park with plenty of picnic and camping options. We are here in the early season so not much is blooming but the lake is still open for kayaking, the trails are well maintained, the gift shop staff is amazingly friendly, and the cactus garden is otherworldly. I am so glad we made the drive.

Eunice & Pete Kuhn

Garden is underwhelming. Chapel, museum and cacti desert compensates for the garden really well

Donnie Buchanan

Amazing place

Kelly Rama

It was so beautiful but border patrol treated me as if I had no rights. They claimed that they picked me randomly for a 2nd interrogation and the fact that I was black had nothing to do with it. But officer Davis and supervisor Doceanau …

Sierra Campbell

Very underrated! This park is fantastic for both long term camping and daytrippers alike. The camp sites are pull through and choices are water and electricity or no service. Fairly clean and well kept. The area for camping equipment is a …

Andy Anderson

Very beautiful scenery. Very relaxing, and tranquil. Has a lot of meaning.

Brenda Sikorski

The gardens are absolutely beautiful.

Sheri Tuchscherer

A place to watch and remember well

Rachel Dockter

Very large and beautiful garden

Hakliva Kristin

Early spring trip to the conservatory. Well worth drive!

yimyum

Needs more advertising Best kept secret in North America

Tim Lewis

Free firewood. Large camping sites. Had a great time.

Noah Mueller

It really is a beautiful place to visit. Lived in North Dakota for 30 years and finally went. I would highly recommend going if you are looking for a weekend trip and some nice hiking trails! Definitely make sure to stop at the game warden museum, Very friendly people there and cool stuff to see.

Chris Profera

Beautiful place

Sarah Joy Ramos

A forgotten gem in North Dakota. Ideal time is July to August when most flowers are in bloom. The collection of succulents and cacti is incredible and the fresh scent of blooming flowers relaxes the mind and body.

Marion Higgins

You will cross the border when returning from the garden. Make sure you have your passports. The garden is nice but it is only in the middle. There is about 6 miles of drive that is just trees nothing fancy. Also a bit pricy for what you see.

Paul Boyle

Not very impressed with the entrance fee applied. My daughter is attending a camp at the Gardens and to simply drop her off and leave within minutes of dropping her off, I was charged $20 just to drive in. i explained the situation but did not make a difference.

Dave Alex

Good camping, biking, hiking and gardens. Don't miss the cactus gardens!

That's Hay

To get the most of it, probably plan to camp and hike. The garden is beautiful and large in size but not so much worth the border control hassle.

Bill

Great place to look at Flowers

Michael Scott

I think we visited to early in the season. I could see all the beauty ready to bloom but it just wasn't ready yet.

Patrick Villacorta

Beautiful place, great people, a must see. Stop by the gift shop for fun local items

Aiden McLean

Living here it is so easy to miss it. Make sure you bring birth certificates or passports to prove citizenship so you can get back into Canada. You don't go into the States but you do leave Canada.

Ike and Martha Klassen

Awesome experience. Must check out the 9/11 memorial and the peace chapel. Moving.

Inesh Munaweera

It was huge, be prepared to walk even if your just walking around center of park. Beautiful flowers that smelled really nice. Awesome venue for weddings, which one was taking place as we toured the park. Peace chapel had several quotes carved into the inside stone. Beautiful all around.

Sheri Hodnefield

a extremely beautiful place where people mispronounce their ou sounds

Tyler Alldredge

Beautiful

Emmanuel Toquee

Liked the Canadian side, just because has more places for picnics and hiking.

Edmund Laldin

Beautiful gardens, well worth the $20/car entry.

Sven R

(Translated) This immense garden straddling the border between Canada and the USA is breathtakingly beautiful. Besides it is possible to do besides the walks, also a beautiful ride in mountain bike. The bar restaurant, makes excellent burgers and a carrot cake, which is worth trying. (Original) Questo immenso giardino a cavallo del confine tra Canada ed USA è di una bellezza mozzafiato. Inoltre è possibile fare oltre alle passeggiate, anche un bel giro in mountain bike. Il bar ristorante, fa degli ottimi hamburger e un dolce alla carota, che vale la pena provare.

Angela R.

Gardens are beautiful but getting there and staying in the campground I would not recommend the effort

Stacy S.

Beautiful place. Very nature. Loved it. Very peaceful. Clean.

Bouncing With The BLODGETTS

I saw this for the first time. Never even knew of it until my granddaughter started to work here. I was enthralled with the beauty and peacefulness!

Ferral Thompson

Beautiful park, one of a few places you can cross the Canadian border. I favorite side of this park is the Canadian side. A place where everyone should visit.

Dawn

I really liked it because it was our first family trip there very peaceful and beautiful I honestly think I really like traveling lol its so fun and exciting for me I definitely went picture crazy everything was just so awesome I would really like to go again

Christy Young

Flower look so pretty. Gardens are a great place to visit. But I'm never going back. Was intergade in the holding facility.

Timothy Germain

I have heard so much about this I am looking forward to going up after the Covid19 has relaxed so I can see it for myself

Terrance Johnson

Beautifulb peaceful.

Julie Parrish

The staff are friendly and helpful from the people at the gate, in the cafe, and even the gardeners. We camped for two nights; our site was roomy, private and the washrooms were very well kept. The picnic sites were private, in scenic …

Janet Parton

They take good care of this place. I'd recommend trying the pride dairy cow pies as you walk around. Things were different but they have hand sanitizer everywhere. All the buildings close at 6pm, the cafe is closed for the season.

James Van Gerwen

A very quiet and beautiful place. The grounds are well kept with gardens and fountains.

Abdiel Lopez

Should have more to do there. More exhibits, etc..long was to drive with nothing more to do than walk a mile, go home

ave Ag

beautiful tranquil place.

Ryan Cormack

The campsite was great. Family of 5 - kids 4-11. We tent camped and it was quiet, private, and clean. The bathroom facilities, roads, etc. were good. There is no cell service. The restaurant food and prices were good- the hours are not. They are not open late so eat early. Flowers, scenery, etc. is nice. There was a nice playground. If we had not camped it would be a 3 star probably as kids were not real into the garden itself.

Thiru R

Besutiful

Rexford Dundon

awesome recommend going after the gardens are planted. even more beautiful.

Denyse Anderson

Always enjoy going here

Ross Williams

I haven't been back since I was a kid and it's changed quite a bit. Maybe as a kid I couldn't appreciate it or maybe it just wasn't that memorable for a 10 year old kid but the Peace Gardens are amazing and live up to their name. It's a …

Kristen Walterson

A Great Place to Spend the Day

LaDonna Carlson

What a neat place beautiful! everyone we talked to were very nice the campground is great almost every site was like you were in the woods by your self, beware of ticks though. Highly recommend. Very educational

Beautiful garden and incredible camping area. The park is extremely well maintained and has a wide variety of flowers and other plants on display, as well as numerous sculptures and monuments. While cell service in the area is sparse, free …

Peggy Wollmuth

Beautiful garden featuring a 911 memorial with steel beams from the world trade center site. Bell tower, cactus garden, gift shop. This place is huge, if you are fit and want to make a day of it bring your pedal bike but be warned lots of little hills. Bring a lunch and water. Great park shared with two great countries.

Chris Bloomfield

Went June 22 many of the flowers hadn’t bloomed yet and the floral clock appeared pretty naked. Very quiet and serene place though nice to walk around the garden and the Canadian side road attempted one nature trail but it wasn’t well used and I turned around when it appeared to be full of poison oak. Great value for $20

Karishia Washington

Great campsites and wonderful park. Lots to explore and see.

Jeff Bridell

Really cool place I must cost a lot of money to maintain its cuz they have so many flowers

Janam Prajapati

Barbara Kelley

Loved our time here. So beautiful! Highly recommend stopping it!

CHRISTINE LAMOUREUX

It had been close to 30 years since I had been. Not sure if right now is the off season or what but didn't have a lot of flowers. I know it's early in the season. But still found it strange that the flower beds by the entrance were over …

Jed Eichel

A fantastic time. My wife and I grew up around the IPG and went for a return for our one year anniversary. It was so wonderful being there again. We look forward to returning and one day bringing our kids here.

sherry preston

This place is nice

ScottandDebbie Dick

I love it....nature is amazing in there

Lee Schroeder

I love the place! The tribute to 9/11 was humbling to see.

Nicole Gepson

Loved visiting here but it could use a little more attention to detail (weeding, etc). Campground has potential to be great, maybe we were a little early (or late) in the season. It just needed attention to detail too. We will try again!

Jk

Should have longer hours during the summer. Looks like they didn't more flowers in the past compared to what they have now.

Ken and Alicia Lund

I loved going to this place! The gardens were beautiful, the staff was lovely, and the rest of the visitors seemed really nice! There’s some areas that are more crowded than other but all together it has a great atmosphere. Really love the …

There is also RV camping here that is not well advertised. Beautiful gardens and very helpful staff.

Jeff Freadrich

Nice place

Cory Bischoff

Gorgeous formal gardens with multiple paths and ways through them, many plant select plants on display, has indoor hot house for cactus, clock tower chimes ever 15 minutes, annual clock with funtional workings, water gardens and fountains, peace chapel at west end with quotes of peace, 9-11 garden with metal beams from towers, longest unprotected border in the world- mowed grass and trees trimmed vertically creating a 50 foot slot to the edge of the horizon. Bring water and snacks along hike, bathrooms available at east end, MUST BRING PASSPORT to get back into either country.

Amy Cochran-Wiedrich

Got there on a nice day lots to see and our daughter went to band camp there to

Jeffrey Ag10d (silverphoenix1010)

I have lived in North Dakota for 7 years and never visited until just recently. I have been missing out, this was very easily the best experience I have had in this area. The International Peace Garden is beautiful, well taken care of, and a unique experience. I will definitely visit again!

Karen Weber

Not my thing but you have to go and see it once.

Denise G

The conservatory greenhouse with the cacti and succulents was amazing. They had such great variety of plants from all over the world! Very beautiful and peaceful place to visit.

Jenny Jacobsen

So sad to see it being so dry

Nick Jolliff

Very beautiful place!

Seamus Comyn

Beautiful display of native flowers as well as an indoor cactus/succulent exhibit

Maxim Culacov

Beautiful gardenI would like to see more items added to the garden, there's plenty of room to expand!

Noel Dwarika

Great place, though wait for spring and summer to see the gardens. In winter, fun snowmobile and cross country ski trail connected to lake metigoshe state park. Cactus garden is really nice in winter, though!

Dennis Tjaden

Very nice walking through this greenery when outside is cold and white.

Derek Lion

Beautiful place. I June a lot of causes were blooming, but not so many other flowers. If you want to see more flowers come closer to the middle of July.

Lyle Jerome

I FOUND THE STAFF VERY UNFRIENDLY IF YOU COULD HUNT ONE DOWN I WILL NEVER GO BACK

Nicholas Giesbrecht

Awesome flower display. Very nice. Hightly recommend.

Tracey Stepp

Any Manitoban who hasn't been here yet is really missing out. It's amazing and a full day's Excursion. There is a charge to get in and I don't believe they take cards.

Glenn Muske

Great place! If you are a nature lover this place is absolutely for you!

TQuick

Beautiful place, loved the peace chapel. Gardens were a bit underwhelming but it was early for them yet!

Nahid Rahman

Very Beautiful.

Travis R

Beautiful! Absolutely stunning! Glad I finally got myself up here to see this. Definitely worth the drive. Lots to see, lots to do. I must have spent about 4 hours hiking & looking around.

Bruce Renton

We spent a beautiful day here. It was a spur of the moment trip so we didn't have passports to get back into the USA but we used our driver licenses without incident. We had one with us who can't walk much but we still got to see all we …

Joyce Yoder

Beautiful gardens

Bruce Felix

Must place to visit !!

Dodgie Dator

In my opinion not worth the visit

Patty Riske

In mid July the flowers were very beautiful, also in the evening there were very few others there so made it very relaxing with the family.

Aljun Cabato

With a group of friends camping in NE Nodak, decided to take a small detour on our way home to visit the gardens. Was better than I expected! Very beautiful with tons of walking paths and trails. Stopped by the game warden museum, which was pretty fascinating. All in all, I'd love to visit again!

Timothy Stout

Quiet and Reflective

Ranbir Poonia

Peaceful and beautiful

LS Greger

Made the trip there, looked at all website information etc did not find info on fees. There are fees, in 2016 it is $15 per vehicle for one day or $30 per vehicle for a season this is just to enter. When my group got there no one was at the entrance building just had envelopes to fill out with no instruction. Sorry not leaving cash in a box or CC info on it either. Supposedly the seasonal pass gets mailed to you later.

Van Harold

We loved this place. Beautiful flowers and gardens.

Matt Ruhland

What a place everyone has to go at least one time

Alexey Aronov

It was where nice

Karin Ruppelius

The gardens are beautiful and I really enjoyed my time there. But the reason I'm only giving one star is because when leaving the park one has to go through customs. At the customs office I was told I had to self quarantine for two weeks because I left Canada. There was absolutely NO signage warning Canadian travellers that by entering the park one would have to quarantine for two weeks. The office was closed at the time and there were NO warnings posted.

Jake Vigesaa

So peaceful and beautiful. Outdoor gardens, indoor cactus observatory, gift shop and cafe with ice cream, I recommend the Juneberry ice cream it's the best and locally made by Pride Dairy in Botinneu.

Jason j

I thought the $20 admission was worth it because the grounds are exceedingly massive with tons more to do than just the garden. Great place to hike, picnic, stroll, or look at exhibits. The surrounding Turtle Mountain is surprisingly …

Vikas Patel

Signs could be a little more clear on what is where, but beautiful place to visit.

Jansen Howe

Love it coming back next year.

Carleton Borden

One of the best places in North America

Kyle G

My wife has been waiting for 20 years to see the peace garden and was thoroughly overwhelmed by the beautiful displays and the entire area. Loved the campground, really quiet. Well worth the visit.

Glenn

Nice place. Bring your passport, as technically you are leaving the country. Best to come after June before October as plants don't blume other times. Cactus house is nice addition.

Joel Nelson

This is a must see in North Dakota

Sadie Primm

Shahid Malik

Beautifully inspiring, Loved it

Doug Alt

I really enjoyed this place. I had the pleasure of visiting on a Sunday morning and had the place pretty much to myself. My only issue with the place is the 9/11 memorial. Very much out of place in a peace garden. It brought me down and damn near killed my moment.

John McCollum

This is one of my favorite places I can visit in ND. We have camped at their campground multiple times over the last few years. The campground is very quiet, sites are spread out, the camping area is in a nice aspen/oak treed area, and there are bathrooms with sinks and showers. The formal gardens are beautiful at many times of the year. We even went the last weekend in September this year- there were still some beautiful flowers blooming and the fall foliage was perfect. They have an awesome cacti collection and a cafeteria with good food options. One of my favorite things to do while visiting is drive the auto-loop at dusk (great birding opportunities!). It is so beautiful! We have also done almost all of the hiking trails there. Some trails are more maintained than others. Depending on the time of year, there may be ticks, mosquitoes, and poison ivy so just come prepared if camping/hiking. I would highly recommend people visit the gardens, spend a weekend camping, and do some hiking here!

Lisa Kudelka

Beautiful! Peaceful.

Wall2Wall BorderCollies

We enjoyed our time here! So much hard required to keep the beauty, we definitely appreciate it!

An amazing conservatory with 5000 kinds of cactus and succulents! Beautiful gardens, and a tribute garden to 9/11 with sections of girders from the twin towers. Very moving.

Amazing cactus collection.

Beautiful, quiet place. We often go in the later part of the day and sing in the chapel. Not many people at that time of the day. I really miss the Peace Towers. Hopefully they can get the new one up soon.

Craig Lister

I recently visited in January to attend a workshop, for which there are great facilities here in terms of meeting rooms, meals and lodging, and a terrific director. However, I can't wait to return in spring and summer as there are extensive gardens and wooded grounds for hiking , a beautiful visitors center, and more, including famous summer music and sports camps. The drive to get here, through the Turtle Mountain area, is really beautiful too.

Renee Kittredge

A beautiful, quite park. Early June may not be the best time to visit as the flowers are just being planted, but the cactus facility was worth the trip. Camping was ok with electric, water only. Sites are private and generous in size. Wifi available in gift shop area, and antenna tv won't work.

robert erstelle

Definitely a must see, visited during the last week of June, we're just starting to put the plants and flowers in , I would have thought that would have been done a long time before that, otherwise, very photogenic and a nice place to just go for a walk

Linley Doerksen

Lots of great things to see when we go annually for IMC. The only restaurant on campus is not prepared for big rushes. It's not a big place, so even when they are busy it should not be overwhelming, but we waited over an HOUR for their very basic menu of chips and chicken sandwiches. Unless they butcher the chicken onsite this is obviously them forgetting about their customers. Unacceptable.

Steven White

It is beautiful and peaceful here! Wonderful that 2 countries can be at peace with each other.

Great stop. Picnic and view the gardens with a nice hike.

Roland Lafrance

We visited the park on June 2nd and while the gardens were not all planted, what was there was amazing. I would recommend to visit later in the growing season.

Jessica Wanzek

This is a place one has to intentionally go. This is not anything random. You have to plan and go. I have heard for most of my life about the International Peace Gardens but never made the trek. We happened to be within 4 hours. I will say the 9-11 Memorial and the Peace Chapel were the highlights fir me. Others will find other reasons.

Nick Scott

Very beautiful place. We will return later when the flowers are blooming.

Nedda Bentley

Great place to spend a few hours. Beautiful garden on the US-Canada border. You don't need a passport or anything, just a driver's license or some other photo ID. They have gardens, lakes, some artifacts (rubble from 9/11!), a peace chapel, a restaurant (wasn't open when I went on aug 27, 2016) and some sort of museum that I didn't get a chance to visit. Make sure you have atleast 3-4 hrs to spend here. I saw a few people bringing their pets too. Entrance fee is $15 per vehicle entry. There is a provincial park right next to the garden on the Canadian side so you can come and camp here too.

Jeffery Will

Please don’t tell anyone except everyone you know of this unique place. A joint venture between two countries with the same experience. Peace and quiet. From the moment you check in to the camp host you feel welcome. Do yourself a favor and check out the beauty and caring people.

dennis diemel

Romantic place good for strolling Couple

Kyle Nelson

Great place, they charge too much for entry and camping. Need to discount for entry plus camping.

James Miller

Beautiful place that can benefit from a little extra love

Rachel Boese

If you like flowers pretty awesome!

Donna Rhoades

Haihong Wang

This beautiful garden was just incredible. There was so much peace here beautiful flowers great statues and of course the conservancy and the game ward museum was tops!

Rod Peddycoart

Beautiful. It's a cool, scenic place. Very serene.

T S

When the Peace Gardens first opened in 1930s 50,000 people came from all over to witness it. Now it is quiet tranquil place where one can get disconnect from today's society and reflect on the beauty of the world. A definite must stop and well worth the visit as they are always improving and revitalizing these beautiful grounds.

Betty Olson

Very nice good Campground

Mary Penner

Beautiful gardens and 11 September 2001 memorial.

Ken Francis

The gardens were designed with some sort of brutalist architecture. The overall impression was not one of peace unless you count the peace of headstones. Camping was pricy, especially considering the swamp the campsites were located on. Oh, the mosquitoes. I was truly underwhelmed by this place.

Jeff Baker

Definatly a must visit!!

Jeremiah Schwanke

Big park, located in the United States and Canada

Ed Rose

Family members love all of it.

Shirley Hultstrand

Nice location. Really enjoyed. Must visit

Here's a wonderful place to take friends & family, incredible selection of plants, excellent customer service personnel. Fantastic place very unique plants set up, nice for small or large groups, they have large inside building for events, with washrooms, gift shops, with great great selections of park items

Robert Bishop

It was awesome. Miles of breath taking flower gardens. A 911 memorial etc.

Debra Richman

A fantastic park with outstanding gardens on 5he USA and Canada border. Also the conservatory has a very wide collection of desert plants and the restaurant is very nice and reasonably priced. Make sure you take your passport as you have to go through passport control on the way back even though you do not enter Canada to see the park.

I wouldn't go out of my way to see this one but nice walking around the gardens

C Strand

It is beautiful. Sad thing you have to go into Canada to enter it.

Tillie Cramer

Beautiful Garden! Great idea to share with Canada. The cactus building was very interesting. They also have a campground. No passport needed.

Awsome very nice

Chris Fletcher

Really cool Place with lots of historical background

Philip Friesen

I planned an entire week long road trip around going here - it's a hike to get here from anywhere. Was it worth the trip? Yes. Could there be improvements? You bet. I was really sad to learn that the visitors center was closed and not staffed. I was really looking forward to buying a souvenir. Luckily we got there before the conservatory was locked for the evening and saw all the beautiful cacti. Other than that - we seemed to be the only people in the garden on a Wednesday afternoon - my wife and I strolled the garden and contemplated life, said a prayer in the chapel, and just loved the serenity here. I would love to come back in the late summer to see everything in bloom.

What a lovely garden! You can strattle US and Canada at the same time!

Lynelle Urlarcher

Lovely flowers. Miss the big concrete sculpture thing. Been 3 times over 15 years and still haven't seen all the fountains working!

Tami LeClaire

Very relaxing place

Judy Cornett

Not only an interesting historical site/landmark that represents the unity of two great countries, but also a natural and beautiful place to explore and camp!

larry schiff

Spectacular flower arrangements

Wesley Mason

Beautiful but BRING YOUR PASSPORT, border patrol was not nice.

Linda Bakker

Impressive large well kept grounds!!!! There are flowers, plants, cacti, trees, etc. A lot to maintain and take care of but it was quite presentable. Also a 911 tribute and a game warden museum on the grounds

Great place for biking. Very little traffic and low speeds make it feel entirely safe taking the lane on any road, although there are also bike lanes. Gorgeous gardens in a gorgeous natural setting. Lots of picnic areas and viewpoints to choose from

Rex Stores

Place of peace got there before flowers planted but still beautifu. Loved the tranquility

Robert Laducer

Beautiful little garden area with lots to see and do. If I lived in the area I would visit more often as there are tons of areas for picnics and just having a good time in the beautiful outdoors. The grounds keepers were nice and the chapel peaceful. There was hardly anybody here. The one downside is you have to go through the border police to get out of the garden.

Amazing place. Beautiful in Fall. Go before October to have the best experience. Good place to see the fallout.

Mark Javers

Beautiful! Miss the Peace Towers....

Darrel Rissler

Very beautiful. Nice natural. I love it. Enjoy. Thanks

Christi M

So very beautiful and peaceful...... until we got to the 9/11 display. We did not think that should be there. This is a PEACE garden, and that is evidence of war. It was upsetting. It has nothing to do with our US/Canadian relationship. It certainly has it's place, but this is not it.

Matt Sedelbauer

Beautiful

antonio bacani

Good place to visit, 911 Memorial was good

John Weisberg

Always a must visit

Roger Wimpfheimer

Beautiful landscaping. Nice 9/11 memorial.

Lynn Ray

So much to see there plan on getting a yearly pass for next season an my travel card border agents have no sense of humor.

The cafeteria has surprisingly good food. The gardens are phenomenal.

Virginia Nalangan

A wonderful variety of flowers on display and several beautiful statues. Spent about 3 hours walking the grounds, taking photos and visiting the sites and museums. I would reccommend choosing a day with few clouds and blue skies. We're glad we were able to visit.

Christine Benitez

Beautiful

Twila Benz

Amazing.

Anza Beldon

Great for family and friends. Beautiful flowers

Carissa Ward

A must see!

Melvyn Klaus

We came for a look on June 23rd and less than half of the flowers were in the ground. Many overgrown weedy areas. Cafe was closed.

Rick Felstead

Love place to go

Richard Gates

Nice park

The flower displays were plentiful and in full colour when we visited. The Peace Towers are an interesting structure. It's too bad that it has suffered damage and can't be saved. Hopefully it will have a worthy replacement. I especially enjoyed the conservatory with their cactus displays. They also had some wildlife conservation org on-site with an animal (an owl if I recall correctly) to spread awareness and receive monetary support (they were selling items too I think). There also was a small restaurant here. There are a lot of picnic areas on the Canadian side. I heard the American side is more developed but we didn't drive through there. On the Canadian side, Turtle Mountain Provincial Park and the town of Boissevain (with "Tommy the Turtle" roadside attraction) are nearby. There was a lot of road work when we went but hopefully it is completed by now. We visited with my father-in-law who had a multiple-entry Canadian visa and we had no problems. I don't recall if his passport was checked but bring it to be safe. Visited August 2015

Julie Erickson

Beautiful place to get away. Great clean cared for property. The cactus garden is quite overwhelming! Peace Chapel is cool. Tons of stuff to do there... brig your bicycle if you're able to... Nice place for a bike ride.

Dennis Irvin

A very relaxing place

Jo Lynn Newton

Very beautiful and historical

Mitzi Hager

The scenery is stunning

lela white

I visited the garden when I was a child and remember enjoying myself quite a bit. We even encountered a moose on the road nearby. My wife and I will be visiting my family in North Dakota this summer and a day trip to the garden is one of our must do's while we are there.

Mechelle Hicks

Very peaceful. There are 80 000 varieties of annuals and perennials. Very beautiful I was impressed with the Conservstory with 5 000 varieties of cacti. Staff were very friendly. The cafe was very good with comparable prices. It was a lovely day.

The Farmer

Most Beautiful Place In The Midwest

Callie Randall

Beautiful Park, drive and easy walk, beautiful fountains, wheel chair accessible, little cafe and gift shop, lots of beautiful photo ops. Will go back, do need a passport.

On a beautiful day, August 7th, 2009, another motorcycle rider, myself and my wife departed Eastern North Carolina for a 4850 mile excursion. One planned stop was the International Peace Garden north of Rugby, ND. It was beautiful and very peaceful. Doug Alt

If you have not been here for a while, you need to go again. The formal gardens are spectacular. The Peace Chapel is always a welcome time for reflection. I encourage you to bring a picnic lunch as they have limited food and drink available. Camping is an option but pretty rustic compared to state camp grounds. Family had a blast bicycling around.
