Yes, I went there in early October one year and loved it. The weather was still of the Indian summer variety with a breeze and quite enjoyable. We spent nearly the whole day exploring the gardens and Monet's home with very few other people around.

Like Huitres says the suffocating crowds of summer likely won't be there in October so even though some of the bloom has falled off the gardens, the whole experience could be much better - and when i was there one October there were still plenty of flowers - and some fauna, such as the famed water lilies, should be the same as in summer.
