Occupying a rectangular block in the middle of an otherwise ordinary northwest Lincoln City neighborhood, the Connie Hansen Garden is a cozy park maintained by the volunteer efforts of the Connie Hansen Garden Conservancy. Walking paths bordered by mature labeled trees, many varieties of rhododendrons, and several flower beds wind around the one and a quarter acre property. A small stream trickles along the north side, spanned by wooden footbridges where it intersects the path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My husband and I visited near the end of July, which is not an optimal time for blooms, but there were still dabs of color in several manicured beds. Even on our Tuesday visit \u2013 one of two days per week when the garden is tended by local helpers \u2013 the grounds were a peaceful chunk of natural green lushness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
