The Elizabeth F. Gamble Garden, located on Waverley Street, is a 2.5-acre garden with a historic home, a carriage house, and a tearoom. Built in 1902 for the Gamble family, Elizabeth F. Gamble, one of the daughters of the original owner, donated the property to the city of Palo Alto in 1971. The original formal herb and rose gardens were restored, along with the additions of irrigation, lighting, and paths.

Repairs were also made to the existing buildings, and a gazebo was added. The garden is open every day, and there are docent led tours of the garden and the house from Monday through Thursday. The property can be rented for special events such as weddings.
