Spohr Gardens

A must stop budget friendly for all season. I went in late autumn and it was stunning. We stumbled on this hidden gem. Definitely if you have time it is a quick stop when exploring Cape Cod.

A hidden gem! Set on a quiet mostly private lake (oyster pond) this garden is meticulously maintained and yet still very natural.
We found this location from a wedding website. For just a small donation we could reserve the space for our intimate wedding. We knew as soon as we saw the gardens and dock in-​person that THIS was the perfect place to exchange our vows. With just a few fish jumping in the distance and a turtle popping up to say ‘hello’, Spohr Gardens is very peaceful, private and serene. The light was perfect at our 4:30 ceremony which was held just a few days before Labor Day.
Thank you, Charles and Margaret Spohr for creating this amazing place. It will always hold a special place in our hearts.

A small, out of the way park, maintained by a trust, on Oyster Pond, Spohr Gardens is beautiful. We had our wedding ceremony there, on the dock. Perfect, beautiful location for an intimate (40 person) wedding ceremony. A late afternoon in mid-​September means the natural beauty of the area is all the decoration you need. They have a small parking area, so carpooling for a wedding is best, and there is no electricity. But we had a battery-​operated Bose speaker and it would be beautiful with a singular musician. The historical artifacts and unique, winding stone staircase offer interest, in addition to the beautiful flowers and plants blooming at different times of the year.

This hidden gem of a park on Oyster Pond has a lot of history and is a wonderful spot to look at nature and some historical artifacts. It was started about 30 years ago as a privately landscaped yard. It is now maintained by a non-​profit and I think it is available for small weddings.
We visit whenever we are on the Cape.
