Lakeside Garden Tour

This Lakeside Garden Tour celebrates the hard work and passions of residents, business owners and the Lakeside Grounds Crew who love spending time in their gardens.

You’re invited to experience these landscapes on a self-guided Garden Tour. This year, the 19th Annual Garden Tour will take place from 9 a.m.-3 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 3, showcasing various gardens across the Lakeside grounds.

During the tour, a Get Growing! gardening program will be held at the Train Station from 1:30-2:30 p.m. The featured speaker is Eric Barrett from Ohio State University speaking on “Hydrangeas in Your Landscape.” He will also answer your gardening questions.

Maps of featured gardens on the tour will be available at all Lakeside gate entrances, the Fountain Inn and Hotel Lakeside front desks and the Lakeside Chautauqua Administration Office on the day of the event for tour attendees to explore the featured gardens on their own. Shuttle stops and restrooms are also featured on the maps.
