Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens offers a fantastic experience both in summer and for the winter Gardens Aglow event. The Aglow lights are described as a magical and amazing winter wonderland, with many unique designs creating an enchanted evening. During summer, there are many trails to walk that lead to little secret gems and the water. The customer service is noted as exceptionally helpful, professional, and kind. It is highly recommended to buy tickets well in advance, especially for busy Saturdays. The experience is consistently considered worth it, with many visitors planning to return.
The AGLOW lights event was amazing! Everything in the garden is a labor of love of which words or pictues cannot capture.

Gardens Aglow can only be described as a magical winter wonderland. Dress warm and be prepared to be amazed. Grab some popcorn on your way by and your entire evening will be enchanted. I can not recommend highly enough!

This was one of the best customer service experiences I have encountered. I spoke to three different people —on what was likely one of their most stressful and busy days of the year—and each person was helpful, professional, kind and seemed to truly care.
