We had baby girl in the midst of Pandemic. She is almost 5 months now. We took our daughter along with parents to the temple.Did darshan as instructed by head priest. We offer what we had on the donation box. On our way out we were asked if we can buy lunch from their kitchen for $5 each. I felt like we are at mall or any store. We travelled about 1 hrs just to do Darshan. This has to be corrected if this center wants more devotees to visit and make them feel like they are in temple. Priest seems not wise or may he has some bias views towards some group!!!!! I am proud Hindu, let’s preserve our tradition and culture.

This place is a must to stop by if you are in the area, especially at night. The temple appears as it were glowing against the contrast of the dark sky. We happened to come by late at night with no one else on the property. The ONLY reason I gave it 4 stars is because of my appreciation for the view as a whole. However, I was quite disappointed in the lack of up keeping of the property. It is such a beautiful temple and breaks my heart to see the owners let it fall apart like this. The paint is chipping, there is clear damage on the beautiful elephants and all around the court yard. I wish someone would take it under their wing and fix it up. Though, it is a place I will visit again for sure.

Such a beautiful place. The premises is kept clean all the time. The temple is open full day during the weekends which gives an opportunity for travelling pilgrims to visit it any time of the day. They offer food (only vegetarian) for a price most times. It's cooked fresh in the temple kitchen. I plan to visit this often

My fiance and I stopped at 3:30 pm on 3/23/20nnWe BOTH thought the place had been abandoned for at least 5 years. That is NO JOKE. It is such a beautiful temple from the road, but up close it is a horrible display of neglect. I was amazed that the website was even up and running, let alone current. We SERIOUSLY thought it was abandoned. The front doors are held shut with a bungee cord. The place is falling apart, paint missing everywhere, junk thrown around, etc. What an absolute SHAME. After reading reviews about how clean and well maintained the place was, I seriously thought we were at the wrong place
