When the roses are blooming there is no place like it in town. Amazing colors and scents! A very special Arbor to see. There is also a very large Tiberian Cherry tree nearby over 100 years old. Great views of the river and good access to the bike trails from there.
a pleasant break from the hustle & bustle of every day life. Fantastic roses , well maintained rose beds....just nice that's all.
You can walk or sit among the roses in the summer, enjoy the river all year long, sit under a beautiful old tree; great for the view; a family member even had a wonderful wedding here! Nearby is a great play park for younger children.
I was blown away by the Owen Memorial Rose Garden. It is right off the Willamette River Walk in the Whiteaker neighborhood. There were still lots of roses and other flowers when I visited in October. Very beautiful and worth the visit.
A very beauiful place with lots of peace and quiet in the rose garden and near the river. Have been here a couple of times
Pretty little garden and gazebo (lots of weddings there) ample parking, little path along the river, the setting is great. Get a map to get there, too hard to explain in short paragraph. LOTS of roses, and other flowers, pretty to beautiful in spring and summer and less so in fall and grey, empty and depressing in winter
I love the Rose Garden. It is worth a summer visit if you're in Eugene. Hundreds of Roses in every variety. Great place to sit and read or just take a walk.
If you are not into roses, stay away. This is a great walk were you can see a variety of roses and more importantly, smell them! It's a 45min to one hour leisure walk, a great getaway.
Walking among the many different colored rose bushes and floral displays is a delight to the eyes as well as the nose. The fragrance of all those beautiful flowers takes me back to my Grandmothers flower garden of times gone by.
Late spring, summer, and early fall are the absolute best times to visit this riverside gem. The giant cherry tree that's so massive it's heavy branches are supported by thick metal poles has been around for centuries and is quite a site. The garden also has public bathrooms, picnic tables, water fountains, and connects to a river side walking/biking path that leads you past community gardens, a duck and geese beach, and a park.
