I finally made my way over to Dumbarton Oaks and was kind of disappointed that there was an entry fee at the garden gate. Did I go to the wrong place?

The garden and house have an entry fee if $7. You can also get a season pass, which is a good deal if you go multiple times a year (we do).

The park/woods behind are free to access though, and have nice walking paths along a brook. Very pretty, especially in the Spring.
