Overall, Old Westbury Gardens is a wonderful destination for anyone interested in history, nature, or simply enjoying some quiet time outdoors.
Beautiful grounds, including the tour(self-directed) of the mansion. Durning nice weather conditions, a great place for a family picnic.

Can spend about 3-4 hours. If you have strollers there are stairs to get to both halves of the main gardens (you'll understand when you get there). The main house is meh, not worth waiting for or rushing to get to. Tickets are a little overpriced to go again but if we did we would probably plan a little picnic in advance.
