This peaceful woodland garden is one of Whidbey Island's best kept secrets. Leashed dogs are always welcome. Each visit in any season offers the gardening enthusiast and nature lover a delightful experience. Gorgeous views of the garden, Mount Baker, and Saratoga Passage from the picnic area.

The twelve-acre centerpiece of the Meerkerk Gardens is comprised of many garden rooms, which the Meerkerks began creating in the early 1960s. Inspired by the Rothchild’s Exbury Garden in England, the Meerkerks wished to create a fine collection of rhododendrons and companion plants in a Pacific Northwest setting. The twelve acres of mature display gardens are surrounded by forty-three acres of second growth forest, providing space for people to enjoy nature through gardening, hiking, cultural events, and hands-on learning programs. Meerkerk Gardens is open 7-days a week from 9am — 4pm! Admission is $5 per person and they accept cash, checks, and credit cards at the gatehouse entry. 3531 Meerkerk Lane, Greenbank

Meerkerk Gardens is a peaceful woodland trail full of the most varied a beautiful rhododendrons (WA state flower) you’ll ever see in one place! The main trail is easily assessable for a short, fragrant walk; those who enjoy longer hikes can explore the forest path. The gardens are open 9am-4pm, with public tours every Saturday at 1pm. The flowers burst into bloom in April and peak season is about mid-May, with plenty of flowers left through (my rough estimate) August. Check their website for special events! Admission: $5/person Location: Greenbank, WA I’ve tried to keep my recommendations for Sunshine Studio guests super-local, but this is worth the distance (or, if you’re traveling from the Clinton ferry, it’s on your way)!

Walk through lovingly designed and maintained with many plants in addition to the rhododendrons. Don't miss the monkey paw tree.
