Crystal Springs Rhododendron Garden - Garden in Portland - 5801 SE 28th Ave, USA

Only 5 dollars to get in, this unassuming garden is so much larger than expected, with a bridge that extends over the lake. Awesome array of wildlife (many different ducks) if you keep your eyes peeled. Beautiful foliage in the fall!

We buy a yearly pass every year. This is an amazing nature-scape right in the middle of a golf course. Clean and free of garbage unlike most places in Portland. It's a perfect park especially since there are 0 homeless people camping since there's a fee to get in. It's great!! You'll see a lot of wild life here. Eagles and otters and plenty of ducks make a home here. The staff and volunteers do great work keeping this perfect place as perfect as it is.

Beautiful spot tucked away. We didn't know it was here until we were heading over by Leed College. It's so well maintained and there are SO many rhododendrons. Even though it's October one or two were in bloom! I thought they only bloomed in the spring but there are so many varieties that I guess I'm not surprised that some may be different. There was some cyclamen in bloom which I've never seen outside of a florist shop. Awesome paths. Easy walk. Great for families and people of all ages.

Such a lovely place to take a stroll and enjoy the beautiful PNW. Quiet and comfortable easy walk! Flowers, trees and ferns labeled. My parents were married here twice :)

We had such a lovely, peaceful walk through this park. We went toward the end of the summer and it was beautiful. We even spotted an owl in one of the trees. The only downside is that there were several weddings going on and so the bathrooms were roped off to the public.

This little garden was not just beautiful but extremely relaxing. After walking around checking everything we sad on a bench under some trees and between the running water and wind between the trees we both fell asleep for a bit lol Parking is free but there’s a $5 per person fee.

Been here so many times, was able to feed the ducks before, with the grand kids, We feed them kail,corn,peas. They used to have alot of fun,free entry,now $5.00 per adult, and no feeding the ducks !!! The grand kids didn't have much fun. 😕

Walking meditation, the sounds, the smells, the feel of the wind. What a WONDERFUL way to spend an hour or so. Free admission on Monday. Parking wasn't a problem. I absolutely love this place. They need to re-do their plant and tree identification markers as they are mostly missing or faded to unreadable.
