Great Location for Bird Watching! Dogs are NOT allowed off leash. Ive been visiting this Cemetery for years now. The grounds keepers are very nice and look out for the visitors. The staff in the office are always nice and professional. In the Spring this place is loaded with many types of Warblers. During Spring through Fall this beautiful Victorian Cemetery is home to many types of Migratory Birds. Owls, Herons, Egrets, Hawks, Crows, many types of Ducks and song birds. Many small mammals live there as well. The grounds are always well kept and groomed. There are many tiers of this Cemetery and the rolling grassy hills have everything from simple graves all the way up to mausoleums. The winding narrow roads are fascinatingly inviting to the pond. You can see a wingless, headless angel. (there has to be a story there) and many ancient old growth trees. I love this place!

This is a good and the best coffee shop Ive ever seen. The regular coffee leaves something to be desired but their baked goods and lattes are delicious. Such the best compare to those coffee shops I always visit.

A lot of history in this place .Good place for hiking and bike rides. Word of advice, be really careful when you walking around the stones some of them are from the 1800s and are really fragile.

Good for bike riding and pretty scenic trails in the woods. Beautiful,classic Victorian style graves. A pond. Lots of walking trails also. The cemetery and neighborhood is a maze though so if youre biking/backpacking,make sure you have directions to backtrack if you need to. Extremely buggy. Load up on bug spray.Yuppy spray if you have any. You are in Portland after all.

History set in a beautiful 42 acre park, popular place to walk for the locals. Pay attention to when the cemetery closes. You will get your car locked in and the caretaker is not on site. Be sure to visit the ponds.

Well maintained. Some groundskeepers go above and beyond here.

Beautiful cemetery and very well taken care of. There are ponds in the back with ducks and geese as well as turtles. There are plenty of squirrels, different kinds of birds, and other wildlife. The only problem is that the cemetery is so big, I got lost and couldnt find my way out during my first visit there.
