A really nice get away to calm yourself and taking a walk. Well maintained and parking by the entrance. My favourite is the view of the lake from the top. There's a fence in between though. Overall worth a visit

Lovely park to spend an hour or two. Plenty of benches. Beautiful flowers and butterflies. Lake views above the bluffs. Not a lot of parking but enough during a week day. A nice hidden gem for Scarborough!

I recently visited Rosetta McClain Gardens for an evening walk with my family, and it was a delightful experience. Despite living in the area for a decade, I had never stopped by before. The garden's serene setting, overlooking the lake, provided a comforting atmosphere for our stroll. The well-kept pathways and vibrant flowers added to its charm. While I once had to leave my dog at home due to their no-dog policy, I now appreciate how it contributes to the garden's peaceful ambiance. It's a perfect spot to escape the city's hustle and immerse oneself in the beauty of nature. If you seek tranquility and a chance to connect with nature's wonders, Rosetta McClain Gardens is a must-visit.

Such a beautiful park. The perfect place to take pictures, observe nature, bird watch, admire flowers, sit down with family, & great views of the waterfront!

Stone waterfall in the centre of the park, lovely gazebo, and remaining house structure that l photograph extremely well!
Every direction you looked was just stunning!

There are signs that state no bicycles or dogs - but there were of course both in this area!

Raccoons by the structure and garbages near the parking lot- but didn’t bother us/ anyone.

Always noticed this area across of Birchmount Stadium but never visited. Hidden Gem - you don’t know what the gardens holds / how nice it is until you take a visit!

Beautiful quiet park. It's quite serene with plenty of benches around. The gardens are well maintained and filled with beautiful flowers. Tons of green space to lay out a blanket for a picnic. Some areas of shade and areas for those who enjoy the sun. There's a cute gazebo there too. You can also get a nice view of the water if you walk along the fence.
