Frances Park combines a formal rose garden with woodland and Grand River views in Lansing.

Overlooks and paths create opportunities for a short garden visit or a quieter walk through a varied riverfront landscape.
The photograph shows the formal garden during an earlier visit. Rose displays depend on season and weather, so the image should not be read as a promise of current flowering. Pavilion use and wedding locations require separate reservations. Check current city notices before travelling for an event or particular facility, keep to established paths and confirm whether the slopes and surfaces suit your group’s accessibility needs.
