  When I bought a new home with snow still on the ground, I was overwhelmed when I saw all the creeping charlie and violets appear in the spring, pictures included. The staff at River City were polite, prompt, and quickly put together a plan for my lawn. I like that I receive an email and application record after each service. I have used the payment portal with ease as well as the pay ahead option with no concerns. Overall, the process has been worry-free, requiring little to no effort on my part, after a single year of service there is no creeping charlie, and my lawn has been absolutely transformed into something I am proud of.

  Thank you so much for the fantastic job you and your team did on the landscape project. ​I truly appreciate how closely you listened to my ideas and brought my design to life so accurately. Your attention to detail—and the extra effort you put in along the way—did not go unnoticed and made a big difference. The space looks wonderful, and working with you was a great experience from start to finish. ​Thank you again for your time, hard work, and care! ​Best regards,

  My mom had spring clean up and was very pleased with the crew of Ben and Blake. Hayley was great with communication and quotes. Highly recommend this company for great work and professionalism.

  These guys did an awesome job. We had rock and pavers installed around our house, as well as a few plants/shrubs. River City Lawnscape completed the project within a few days, and the landscaping looks great. They were professional, extremely easy to work with, and the start-to-finish process only took a couple weeks. I'd recommend them to anyone looking for landscaping services in the Rochester area!

  We had a mixed experience with River City Lawnscape in Kasson. In June 2024, we hired them to remove pea rock and install mulch and edging along our house and shed. We also asked them to fill and reseed a low spot in our lawn. We requested a detailed "Scope of Work" to ensure the work would be done the way we wanted. They assured us that a "Scope of Work" was not necessary. The first thing we noticed was that the low area was still too low. They inspected it and agreed to return and add more dirt. We expected clean, pulverized topsoil but we did not get that. The dirt was quite lumpy, with hard balls and even rocks here and there. The grass that grew was sparse but the weeds came up with vigor. It's been an eyesore (see photos) and we are pulling weeds frequently before we reseed. After some heavy rains, we also noticed that some of the mulch was washing out, exposing the original pea gravel that was embedded in the soil. After investigating we realized that the pea rock was not removed but only covered with mulch (something we could easily have done ourselves). Again, River City came out to inspect and explained that they couldn't remove the rock without removing the new mulch and bringing soil in to backfill where the rock was removed (the hard part that we didn't want to do ourselves). So they agreed to add another layer of mulch. We appreciate their willingness to correct the quality issues and also offer us a discount. At the same time, we feel that our requests should have been fulfilled the first time, since it was not a complicated job. Whether you do business with River City or any other company, demand a detailed "Scope of Work" before giving your down payment. We didn't get the Scope and now someone else will have do the work we wanted done. Finally- we have seen many excellent reviews for River City Lawnscape but we have no way of knowing if they originate from our area. When a business has more than one location, it would be helpful to know what region the review is from.
