The Shore Acres State Park is an unexpected and exciting combination of beautiful constructed and natural features, perched atop sandstone cliffs towering above the Pacific Ocean. Formerly the estate of Louis Simpson, a pioneer timber baron, Shore Acres State Park boasts lushly planted gardens that include flowers and other plants from throughout the world. The gardens feature something in bloom nearly every day during the entire year. Visitors can find a formal garden, two rose gardens, and a Japanese-style garden featuring a lily pond in the landscaped area of the park. Colored lights take over the gardens during the holiday season.
