Report
Miller Creek Lawn and Landscape solved multiple landscape and home challenges created by decades-long neglect and recent construction of a garage and an addition that changed the hydrology of our lot. Expert, they completed all tasks and exceeded our expectations for solving the problems we identified in a timely and efficient manner. The design process started by Miller Creek listening to us and walking-the-ground to create a written design which became the template for further discussion and with changes became the blueprint for an itemized plan of action and contract.
Their process teed-up questions addressing long-term maintenance, planting choices, and prioritizing stages. Their plan was a coherent and fiscally prudent response to address the immediate needs and lay the hardscape foundation for future projects. Miller Creek was the third landscape service we worked with in Duluth. They were by far the most organized, the most insightful with considerations for sustainability, suitability, and budget. We plan to continue working with Miller Creek as we find additional projects.

We have worked with Troy at Miller Creek on two projects. He helped design a patio, bridge, and landscaping design that turned out great. We were so pleased that we followed up with a second project which included the front sidewalk and driveway with the same brick pattern. Again, it turned out fabulous. Troy and his crew were great to work with on these projects. I would recommend them to anyone who is considering a landscaping project.

About 20 years ago Kent Worley, Duluth Lakewalk landscape architect, designed the lush corner landscape of our Congdon Park home with treed berm, stream and pond, circular paver patio and planting beds. This summer I hired Miller Creek Land and Landscape to assist with a "freshing" of the hardscaping and planting beds. They reset several areas of pavers and revitalized the planting beds in front of the house along with those in other areas. Trish Crego, RLA was a joy to work with- great ideas, very professional and good communication. The work crew was very efficient and did a great job! I would recommend to anyone needing professional landscaping service.
