Landscaping reviews in Crown Point, Indiana

From start to finish, everything went perfect! We are absolutely pleased! If you’re looking for a top-notch, Hardscape company, look no further!

I spent probably a full year researching local landscaping companies to help me with my backyard project for a new construction home. After talking to a dozen or so companies and hearing nothing but uninspiring proposals, I found Creekside and knew right away they were the one. Mike listened to our ideas and came up with a plan that was exactly what we were looking for. The price was fair and the work was done extremely well. The only downside is a bunch of jealous neighbors!

Had a good experience with Mike and co putting in a paver patio this past summer. Process was easy and the final product was exactly as designed. Project ended behind schedule but overall would use again.

from start to finish, this was an effortless process. Once we received an intial quote, we were able to easily make changes and modifications. We were advised at every step if there were any add'tl services needed. The landscapers were extremely polite and mindful of our property. THey cleaned up every day! Highly recommend Creekside

It has been nearly four decades since Tom Peters wrote In Search of Excellence, detailing his quest to find the best run companies in America. Creekside Outdoor Living could have been on that list had they been around. From the top down to the laborers, this is a first class organization.
The sales staff led by President Mike Arnold is remarkably responsive. The incredibly talented designer showed great patience as we worked on her brilliant design. Finally, our Project Supervisor Mason led the crews who painstakingly executed that exquisite design with the skill of old world craftsmen. Importantly, there were no surprises on price. I knew what this project would cost from the start and they stayed right on budget and on time. When they needed stone, it was there. Never once in over three weeks did this project stop for lack of material, labor or equipment.
Every step of the process was flawless. Of course nothing would matter unless the folks in the trenches, who must determine elevations, excavate the site, lay the base, and then cut and lay the stone were not the extraordinary craftsmen they are. And indeed these gentlemen executed brilliantly and with exacting detail the design plan that was months in the making.
We had two levels of circular stone patios created that connected two separate composite wood decks that likewise were at different elevations. The determination of elevations was critical to this project, and it had to be coordinated with the separate contractor installing the decks, both of which were either complete redesign, or in the case of one, a brand new deck serving new patio doors off the master suite. Creekside worked diligently (six days a week often from shortly after 8 until 6 pm) to both set the proper elevations and properly coordinate with the deck contractor to make sure the stone met the deck stairs perfectly. They also built a grill island, helped create a stunning water feature, and finally installed beautiful landscape lighting
In a word, Creekside transformed our home both front and back, as they also did a “front entry makeover” involving new steps and planter boxes all in Unilock Estate wall and Ledgestone steps and coping. The front project, too, is stunning and called upon the great design team to create another masterpiece.
Simply put, we could not be more pleased. Five stars are not enough.
Before they did our project, I read their on line reviews and thought, no one is this good, for I am not the first make note of their excellence. I was wrong. They are that good. I cannot recommend Mike and his team any more highly. I have a much smaller spring time project and they will be the only bidder.

Creekside Outdoor Living was a pleasure to work with from the beginning to the end of each project they did for us. Everyone throughout the process was professional, friendly, and made communication with them easy. The crews were hard-working, and always did a great job, plus, they cleaned up after themselves every day.
Our first project was the replacement of our 30+ year-old patio. The new patio is beautiful, much more useable, and a lovely addition to our back yard. They even replaced the exit at the other end of the pool, to match the patio.
This summer, we moved around to the side of the house, and had them replace the steps coming down the hill at the side of the house. They are now so much more attractive and easily - and safely - navigable. They also removed a retaining wall which had deteriorated, and replaced it with a graded slope.
We knew they were going to put in a walkway to connect the steps with the patio, but what we didn't expect was that they would remove some of the edging of the patio, and incorporate the walkway right into the patio. It unifies the two projects in a very attractive way.
We have been more than satisfied with the end results of each and every service they have done for us.

We have been extremely happy with all the services we have received from Creekside. We had spent months attempting to obtain some type of patio, porches and sidewalk replacement. Finally I had a friend refer Mike Arnold from Creekside. When I called him, he came out within a week to discuss options and give us an estimate. A design plan was created for us and in a few months our back patio was replaced with the beautiful pavers. A circular pattern was used with black pavers to accent. They worked hard with us to incorporate a gazebo into the patio. The steps are curved and lighting installed. The sidewalk around the house has accent lights. The second portion was done the following spring. This included a new front porch and sidewalk that was seamlessly blended into the previous sidewalk done in the fall. We were very happy with all aspects of the two projects. Everyone worked together as a team and were pleasant and courteous. We have also had grass weed and fertilizer services. We were shocked to see the difference this has made for our lawn! I continue to just look at all of the improvements with awe. We are very happy!

Mr Mike is a very informative and helpful Pilar to the industry. There are many who strive to achieve the same benchmarks as Creekside has in their career. Highly recommend giving them a shot for your property

We hired Creekside to fix our failed retaining wall that was done incorrectly by another local contractor. We could not be more pleased with the end result. Creekside was professional and took pride in their work and it shows. I am confident that this wall will hold up and I love the aesthetics of it as well. They were on time and completed the project when they said they would. The whole team was a pleasure to work and communicate with. They recommended the added lighting and it really made a big difference. We are so happy that we went with Creekside and we will be using them for all of our future outdoor projects! You will not be disappointed if you choose them for your landscape and hardscape needs.

We use Creekside Outdoor Living for maintenance at my business, and they’ve been nothing short of outstanding. Their team is reliable, detail-oriented, and consistently keeps our property looking clean, professional, and well-maintained. They always show up on schedule, work efficiently, and go the extra mile to make sure everything looks perfect.

Highly recommend to any business looking for dependable, high-quality lawn care!

Mike and his team have been amazing to work with. I have been utilizing their services in Northwest Indiana for a few years now. If there are last minute adjustments or additional requests, the team has been more than accommodating. I highly recommend this team. Very professional, great communication, and quality work!

We were constructing our dream home and wanted the perfect backyard to match. We didn’t know much about landscaping, patio design, or how to incorporate items like a pool, pavilion, fire pit, kitchen, or other features, so when we met with various companies, we were looking for a guide for the entire process as well as someone we could trust to do great work. When we met Mike, the owner of Creekside, he spent genuine time with us to understand our needs, helping us think everything through and render designs to help bring the backyard to life. He even spent time with our daughters to make them feel part of the process. Mike is very passionate about what he does and intently studies his craft. WOW, did he and his team do fantastic and exceptional work! Each phase, which included coordinating with other vendors, was seamless. His recommendations were spot on, and the attention to detail from everyone during execution was spot on. We have a lot more planned with Mike. I highly recommend Creekside for anyone doing large and small projects. Worth it!

We couldn't be happier with our new outdoor living area! The service from Creekside Outdoor Living was outstanding from start to finish-truly above & beyond! Mike, Derek, Joel & the entire crew were fantastic. They communicated clearly, showed up when they said they would, and treated our home with care & respect. The finished space truly exceeded our expectations! We highly recommend the team from Creekside to anyone looking to transform their outdoor space!

Mike and his team were wonderful to work with. His team did a great job on our backyard and we love it. We had to make some last minute changes and Mike was so accommodating. Can wait to fully enjoy it next year!

Creekside Outdoor Living did a beautiful job on our front porch, sidewalk, and driveway. We chose them over other landscapers because of neighbor recommendations, competitive pricing, a 5 yr warranty on hardscapes, and Mike Arnold’s salesmanship. Mike and his designer, Randall, listened to us when coming up with a plan, but also made some really great suggestions. We are glad that we were open minded and followed their ideas on lighting, brick columns, and urn planters because they really added to the WOW factor. During the entire project, communication was speedy and clear, calls/texts were addressed that day or the very next. Also, once the project began, the crew was onsite everyday, except for 1 rain day, until the job was completed. Lastly, the Creekside team was just really pleasant to work with, we did not have a single negative encounter with any of their team. John and Renee Malm
