daffodil hill

The daffodils were in full bloom when I visited. The parking lot was full, but it didn't feel overcrowded. There were lots of nice photo opportunities. The colorful peacocks were an added treat. This place is full of rustic charm and is a peaceful place to take a walk and enjoy the colorful blooms. There is no charge to visit, but they do accept optional donations.

We went to Daffodil Hill on a Tuesday morning. The first thing my 5 year old grandson noticed were the beautiful peacocks! Several males were showing off their stuff. I have never seen such a huge feather spread, it was wider than my arms held out sideways from fingertip to fingertip and at least as tall as me. An awesome sight. The flowers were gorgeous. There were so many varieties to take in. Very nicely set up. There is even a little non profit snack bar across the street that is very reasonable and staffed by some very sweet ladies. Oh, and did I mention parking and visiting the daffodils is all free!!

First, it is located just outside the small town of Volcano, Ca. near Jackson. The owners of this property have made it available to the public to share one of the most beautiful hillsides in California. There is no charge, but after spending about an hour I felt obligated to drop $20 into the donation box. The money is used to replant the hill with tens of thousands of daffodils. The flowers bloom in late February to the end of March, or early April. Call 209-296-7048 for a recorded message with viewing times and conditions. Even if you are not big into gardening, and flowers, you will leave thinking this is one of the most fantastic experiences ever. Try to go during the week to avoid the huge crowds. In addition to viewing the flowers (which can take 30 minutes to a couple of hours) there are wonderful restaurants in the area and many excellent wineries to visit.

Our first visit to see Daffodils in bloom in there first opening week for the season. The field full of daffodils in different types. And other flowers such as Hyacinth, tulips. We pack our lunch as their facebook page advice. We really enjoy strolling around and take a lots of photo. After you have enough of photo taking. Walk up the hill to see a herd of peacocks.

Daffodil Hill is an annual must see! Each year, approximately mid-March, this lovely venue (located near Volcano, California) draws thousands of people to view the amazing displays however, due to the mild Winter, it is open early. Bring the family, your camera, and a picnic lunch (but leave your pets at home). A food shack will be available soon but don't wait! Go now, because Mother Nature may cut the season short. Always best to call before making the drive. And while the attraction is free, please leave a donation so Daffodil Hill can continue for generations to enjoy.

Getting here you drive through the small town of Volcano and up through some beautiful scenery. Have tried to catch the daffodils in bloom but have either been to early or too late.

If you are any where near Jackson, you must proceed to Daffodil Hill. The best time to visit the area is around early spring. I advise you call to confirm if the flowers are in full bloom. An overwhelming beautiful fields of different shades of yellow daffodils will take your breath.

I have known about this place since I was a kid but just visited it a few years ago for the first time when everything was in bloom. It is SO worth the drive. I took a bunch of spring photos here and we really enjoyed walking around the farm looking at all the flowers, and the cool old stuff they have there. There are a lot of different types of Daffodils, fields of them. You won't see this many outside of Holland I am sure.. Make a day of it, go to Sutter Creek, then drive to Daffodil Hill and continue on to the Volcano Hotel for lunch. Or maybe hit some of the wineries up in the foothills. It is so pretty up there in the spring with all the green grasses, trees and fresh air. A really nice way to spend a day.

Spring is here when Volcano's Daffodil Hill is in bloom. Only open 2-4 weeks of the year, usually March, the thousands of blooming daffodils are the harbinger of spring in the foothills. Nothing can prepare you for the delight of this magical spot.

Daffodil Hill is a family owned business. When the daffodils are in bloom, it is a glorious sight to see them along pathways, up the hillsides and in barrels. A perfect place for a family picnic or stroll along the paths. Some small animals in pens. Photo ops galore!

Keep in mind that we live in Volcano, but I felt like everyone should know what a gem this is. If you get the chance, make sure to make the drive up to see this is bloom. Bring a picnic lunch!

Only open for a limited time in spring but worth the drive to get there.Hundreds of thousands of daffodils in bloom, many different varieties and colors, see the world awaking from a cold winter with this spectacular sight and the best part is it is free!

We arrived a week after it opened and what a sight! Even during a weekday it was very busy. Many of the flowers were past and they closed early, so we were thrilled to get to see it in its glory.

About five acres of daffodils of different varieties. Free admission. Go during the week. Weekends are jammed. You really have to be cognizant of the weather and flowering conditions. But if you hit it just right, it's wonderful! You can call ahead to see if it's open. They will not allow visitors if it's raining or has rained and is muddy.

I found it to be a good outing if you don't have anything to do. However this review comes from someone who recently attended the Skagit county Tulip festival where there are multitude of colors and thousands of acres of tulips and daffodils. So unfortunately my family was not as impressed. We expected a huge hillside of flowers but actually was gardens and the flowers were already wilting. Pros: free entry free parking (although I gave a donation) nice people nice place for a Sunday drive pretty flowers. Cons: go when they first open in March because we went yesterday and some flowers were already wilting.
