Dunn Gardens

The esteemed Olmsted Brothers Landscape firm designed the Dunn Gardens in 1915. One hundred years later the vision of the Gardens as a place of timeless grace has been realized. Notable features include naturalistic groupings of trees, broad lawns with borders of shrubs, and woodland walks. Plants range from diminutive erythroniums to large rhododendrons and towering Douglas firs.

A visit to the Dunn Gardens is like a step back in time to the grand estate gardens. Designed by Olmsted in 1915, the plantings and trees in this elegant garden have been beautifully preserved and enhanced by the artistry of the famous garden duo Withey and Price.

What I really like about the Dunn Gardens is, when you enter the garden the background “noise” fades away, and one is enveloped in calm and beauty. The perfect antidote to the maelstrom going on in our world….
