Eden Gardens State Park, State park and botanical garden in Point Washington, Florida.

Eden Gardens State Park covers 161.04 acres in Point Washington, centered on the Wesley House, a two-story white mansion with a full-height veranda of square columns, pale green shutters and a hipped roof with a brick chimney. The house holds late 18th-century French furniture, and the grounds have gardens, old southern live oaks and frontage on Tucker Bayou.

The Wesley House, an 1897 mansion, was home to the Wesley family, who prospered from the timber industry. Lois Maxon bought the property in 1963 and filled it with late 18th-century French furniture, including Louis XVI pieces. Five years later she donated it to the State of Florida, and the house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places as Eden Mansion on July 20, 2021.

The mansion displays furniture and decor from the late 19th century, showing how wealthy families lived during that era. Walking through its rooms gives visitors a sense of daily life and gatherings from that time period.

The park opens daily at 8:00 am and closes at sunset, and an entry fee is required. House tours run on the hour from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm, Thursday through Monday; the house is closed Tuesdays and Wednesdays for maintenance. Paddle-craft can be launched into Tucker Bayou toward Choctawhatchee Bay.

The Wesley House served as a filming location for the 1972 horror film Frogs. The park also hosts an Annual Camellia Festival each February and a Christmas luminary event before the holiday, and its grounds can be reserved for weddings, reunions and photo sessions.
