  As both a homeowner and a local Realtor, I highly recommend Creative Landscaping to our clients—and our own experience with them has been exceptional. Creative took over the care of our lawn and gardens and the difference has been remarkable. Our lawn has never looked better, and perennial flowers are appearing in our gardens that we never even knew we had! We have also trusted Creative with some fairly significant landscape work. Their large truck-mounted tree spade was used to relocate three 20 foot pine trees, and they transplanted a row of our prized boxwoods to a new location. These were projects we wanted handled with great care, and the results have been excellent. We have also really appreciated Creative’s landscape design capabilities. They bring thoughtful ideas, a strong design eye, and practical experience to both improving an existing landscape and planning larger projects. Isaac Fleming, Matthew Schoen, Jared Newman and the rest of the hard working employees make an outstanding team, supported by owners Ryan and Katie Howard. They are knowledgeable, responsive, and clearly take great pride in their work. We are very pleased to have Creative Landscaping caring for our property and feel confident recommending them to homeowners and clients throughout Southwest Michigan.

  I have now completed two separate projects with Creative and both the process and product have been excellent! From the ideas and creativity of Kara Lohner on the design side to all the guys in the field, the service has been phenomenal. If I have questions, they answer them promptly and with a great, helpful attitude. The guys in the field were all professional, cleaned up well, and left a beautiful result. When I wanted to add work, they were clear on their communication of the cost and the design change. What a wonderful experience. Absolutely will use them in the future.

  We had a great experience working with Creative Landscaping and Design to completely reimagine our lakefront backyard.. We inherited a space that felt disjointed and dated, and Isaac, Alfonso, and Zach helped us transform it into something that feels cohesive, intentional, and truly ours. From the beginning, the team listened to our vision while bringing their own expertise and perspective to the final design. We also came into the project with a firm timeline, and they worked hard to meet it. The trades were great to work with - efficient, professional, and quick to address and resolve any issues that came up along the way. We really appreciate the team's responsiveness throughout the process and are so happy with how everything came together. This is a space we will enjoy for decades to come. We would absolutely recommend Creative Landscaping & Design.

  I have found all the different service providers at Creative to be knowledge and helpful.  Jerry, the tree expert, has especially been able to help me on so many occasions.  Kara, who did my landscape update, is knowledgeable and careful.  She was able to provide some beautiful additions to my property, that have enhanced it and met my individual needs and wants.  One of the other things about Creative is they have been able to supply all the various services I needed for my home, tree service, maintenance, sprinkler care and design in one company.  This makes caring for the property and keeping it lovely so much easier.  In a service oriented business I have found the people that work for the company to be pleasant and knowledgable and always willing to help or send me to the right team.

  I can't say enough good things about my experience with Creative. My designer, Kara Lohner, was great to work with; she redesigned flower gardens on both sides of the front entrance walkway as well as added new plantings. We replaced existing tired landscaping along one side of the house with all new shrubs, etc as well as planted a compact English cottage garden along another section of the house. We fine tuned plant selections throughout the process after many consultations. She was patient and very engaged-it really was a team approach. Her upbeat personality made her fun to deal with. I also had an overgrown flower garden of about 30 yards removed and replaced by sod and new trees. Jared, the turf specialist, guided that portion of the project smoothly. Both Kara and he made numerous trips to keep tabs on the transformation. All the workers were polite and always professional as well as prompt. Jack, Tyler and Jose are three who come to mind. I'm going to do one last project in 2027 and Creative Landscaping is the only group I'll consider. All in all, they made an extensive project very ennjoyable.
