Beautiful place, but owners give off entitled vibes. They are supposed to be about nature and preservation, but forget that this land is borrowed and not theirs at all. No matter if the "government" or "themselves" see it as theirs bc they "paid" for it, it is NOT! If you can't take it with you when you go, then it does NOT belong to you. It belongs to the Earth, and the natives to this land are the caretakers we stole it from. Owners need to humble themselves, if they use the land for nature and preservation then they can't pick and choose what animals belong there and which do not. Period.

I love exploring the arboretum with my two toddlers. I feel like we’re in the secret garden. I’ve never been in spring so I haven’t seen it with green grass and blooming flowers but even in fall and winter it’s wonderful with its winding path and various trees and other plants.

Every year for Halloween and pumpkin patch trail we spend it here.. memorable one for this is the reason my kid was out that midnight after walking in the trail. Love it.

Great place to go for a stress free walk and the grass is always so well taken care of it's nice to walk in. Plus when it is in bloom with flowers or when they have events it is definitely a place to go and visit.

If you have not been here for the Pumpkin Trail in October, you should make plans to attend next year. We make it one of our Fall traditions with our granddaughters. It’s a nice thing to do in the evening after the sun sets. It gets bigger every year it seems.

This is by far my favorite part of Lubbock. It's a great place to walk or sit.

This is a great public space. They take good care of planning and maintaining the landscape. Easy to access the walking trails. The vegetation changes with each season so it's likely each visit will provide a varied experience.

We got married June 3. I was in complete panic mode given we were set to have an outdoor ceremony @ the Arch outside the tea terrace. Joann was AMAZING and saved ...no she made a dream come true for me. She pulled a hail Mary and was able to get us the St. Paul Chapel. I'd wanted to get married there since I was a little girl. Thanks to Joann's efforts, I married a man greater than my wildest dreams in the place I'd always dreamed of. Despite being behind schedule, everything was beautiful. We did set up and break down chairs @ the Chapel. It seated 65.Renting the Archway only was $75/hr and then $1/chair. You do have to do any setup (decorating) and breakdown (cleanup) within the rental time. So definitely have a plan in place to get it all done. They also have an event center and tea terrace rental (with bridal suite) for $500. It doesn't allow dancing so that ended up being a no for us but everything was beautiful and communication was great. We are so grateful to them for their generosity and professionalism.

A fantastic place to walk, sit and relax. Perfect place to take time to break away from your busy schedule alone or with some friends or family.

Flowers, trees, and crime out the wahoo. Loves this place when Lubbock cares enough about this side of town to have a cop not sit in a church parking lot and actually prevent crime.

Not much to see but it's fun to walk around. I always bring my pets for a walk and it's very peaceful.

We went to the Pumpkin Trail tonight right after sunset and it was packed, but a really enjoyable experience. The trails were clearly marked and the pumpkins carved by area students were adorable. I'm so glad the Arboretum hosts this every year.
