Hidden Backyard waterfalls in Weatherford Texas?
It’s true! "What hidden backyard waterfalls," you say?
Well, if you haven’t been to Chandor Gardens, you would never know that there is a 30' tall waterfall in the backyard garden of a beautiful mansion, right in downtown Weatherford!
Come immerse yourself in this garden oasis.
Chandor Gardens, located in the historic district of Weatherford, is a perfect mix of both English traditional and Chinese gardens.
And this garden is, by far, one of the prettiest places to visit in downtown Weatherford Texas.
Amazingly enough, you would never know this beautiful garden was there!
Located on top of a hill, and behind tall brick walls, is an enchanting 3.5 acre estate complete with a 5600 sq. ft. mansion.
The grounds of the estate intertwine with pathways that meander around meticulously manicured hedges, blooming trees, flowers, fountains, and yes, even a 30 ft waterfall!
Tucked away and hidden from the naked eye, are little secret gardens waiting to be discovered.
Statues of oriental flavor also dot the grounds, along with gazebos, and garden bridges that cross ponds full of Koi.
Known for its superb beauty, it’s no wonder that this garden is the backdrop for many professional photographers and the setting for elegant weddings each spring.
The garden bridge, waterfall, and garden trellis, are perfect backdrops for a wedding photo shoot.
Thankfully you don't need an invitation to attend Chandor Gardens.
The sights and sounds of this wondrous place is enough to melt the stress away from anyone. Who knows, maybe this will inspire you to start building your own backyard waterfalls!
Or on second thought, find yourself a garden bench, and sit for a spell. It's okay to mosey...remember your in Texas!
