★★★★★Featured review by Jay Jay

My partner surprised me by bringing me to this place and I was indeed very surprised by the incredible sculpture and artwork that was done by Bruno! I love the tranquility and freedom of touring the place and looking at the sculpture at your own time and pace. There was absolutely no rush and no crowd. (i went on a weekday) The sculpture looks so real that it seems like there’s life to it! It was a shame I did not get to meet Bruno or the wife in person as I really want to convey my appreciation and love for their art! Whether you are on your way or specially making a trip down, I highly recommend visiting Bruno’s Art and Sculpture Garden! You’ll be amazed!

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families with children aged 4 and up who enjoy discovery-style exploration and can spend an hour or two wandering at their own pace. The hidden sculptures create a natural treasure-hunt experience without any prompting. The relaxed, self-guided format suits all temperaments.

Absolutely amazing artwork! No detail was left untouched by the Artist, around every corner was a hidden fairy or Gnome . The rainforest came alive with mythical creatures poking their heads out of the forest to greet you . Children of all ages would love this experience.. it was like stepping into something out of Narnia. Take the gardens slow in case not to miss anything.. definitely a 5 star worthy experience for the artwork alone . Incredible talent by the sculptor, Bruno 👌

Great place to spend an hour or two. It all starts with being greeted by Bruno and his wife. The gallery is feast for the eyes with a mix of photography, sculptures, sketches and paintins. Then the sculpture garden is another whole fantasy world. What a beautiful setting with the trees and the river. Will definitely go back as I know I've missed so many little details.

A great place to visit. Bruno's Garden and crafted artwork are a lovely place to spend an hour or so. Well worth the drive to Marysville, it is $15 well spent for the entrance fee.
