Edith J. Carrier Arboretum
Score3.5Small but varied arboretum on James Madison University's campus: wooded trails, manicured gardens, a reflective pond with fish, footbridges, statues and a labyrinth. Free entry, campus parking nearby; restrooms and picnic pavilion on site. Best light: golden hour and overcast days for even florals. Weekday mornings are quiet; spring and fall offer peak color but summer has dense greens. Mostly stroller/foot-friendly; allow 1–2 hours to explore.
