Innisfree is a 150-acre public garden in which the ancient art of Chinese landscape design has been reinterpreted to create, a unique American garden. Here, we stroll from one three-dimensional picture to another. Streams, waterfalls, terraces, retaining walls, rocks, and plants are used not only to define areas but also to establish tension or motion. The 40-acre lake is glacial, most of the plant material is native, and the rocks have come from the immediate forest.

There are picnic tables on a little hill overlooking the idyllic lake and property. We return to the cars before our gourmet repast, so you do not have to carry anything other than your water.

Bring a “gourmet” lunch item to share with 2-3 people

Come and enjoy! Comfortable boots suggested.
