Tulip Town

I live in the Skagit Valley and work near to tulip town. Unless you come when the tulips aren't in full bloom, I can assure you that tulip town has acres and acres of gorgeous, multicolored tulips. You can purchase bouquets and bulbs. You will never get photo opportunities the likes of the ones you'll get at tulip town. I would, however, call first and make sure the flowers are in bloom. Although the festival official runs between 4/1 thru 4/30, mother nature has a mind of her own and the flowers can bloom early or late depending on the Spring climate. more

This place is a complete, total and utter waste of time. After you pay your entrance fee, you'll be pushed into an enormous steel barn that is really a giant flea market, complete with an abundance of trashy trinkets from China! The tulips are VERY few and far between, a few paltry bunches here and there in metal buckets- but the REAL focus is getting you to part with your money for things that have nothing whatever to do with tulips. Want a remote control helicopter for your kid? You're in luck. Want to see a wide range of tulips in their natural beauty? Go elsewhere. This place stinks and so do the surley, grouchy and just plain mean people who own and staff it. Please, save your money for one of the far more deserving and worthwhile tulip operations scattered around the area. Cons: Overpriced, Under-Tuliped, Crass, Commercialized more
