Gardens

The Formal Gardens are accessible by a barrier-free entrance on the west side. The Greenhouse and Conservatory are entered through the door facing the formal gardens. Pathways in the formal gardens are grass, crushed stone, and slate. Nature trails are chipped bark or gravel. Accessible parking is available in front of the greenhouses. Accessible restrooms are located at the east entrance to the formal gardens beside the Greenhouse. Service dogs are permitted in the Formal Gardens. 

Village

Accessible parking spaces are located throughout Reynolda Village.  Accessible gender-neutral public restrooms are available in building 114, adjacent to The Barn. 

Reynolda Village is committed to providing a welcoming and inclusive experience for all of our visitors. However, due to the historic nature of our buildings and extensive grounds, visitors may experience some challenges with access.  Most of the Village has paved pathways or sidewalks, however, there are areas with uneven terrain and inclines.
