Excelsior's Lakefront Landscaping Specialists Since 2003
Why Excelsior's Lakefront Landscape Stands Apart
Excelsior's story begins with Lake Minnetonka's formation during the last ice age, creating dramatic shoreline variations and scenic beauty that define this remarkable community. The lake's influence creates unique microclimates and growing conditions requiring specialized landscaping expertise throughout the area.
The proximity to Lake Minnetonka creates distinctive challenges and opportunities for property owners. Seasonal water level fluctuations, increased humidity, and sandy-to-clay soil transitions require careful plant selection and drainage planning. Many properties feature steep slopes leading to water that demand creative engineering solutions.
Our professional landscaping team has mastered working with Excelsior's diverse property types, from historic lakefront cottages requiring sensitive restoration to contemporary homes needing modern outdoor living spaces. Each property presents unique opportunities to enhance the connection between indoor living and Lake Minnetonka's recreational lifestyle.
Excelsior's architectural heritage spans turn-of-the-century summer cottages to contemporary waterfront estates. Our landscaping company specializes in creating designs that complement each style while enhancing the property's relationship to the lake and surrounding natural features.
The community's four-season recreational culture means landscapes must support everything from summer entertaining to winter lake views. We design outdoor spaces that remain beautiful and functional throughout Minnesota's seasonal changes while supporting the active lifestyle that draws people to lakefront living.
Water management requires balancing individual property needs with environmental stewardship. Our quality landscaping services include rain gardens that manage stormwater runoff while creating attractive features. Our landscape design approach emphasizes seamless transitions between developed spaces and natural lakefront areas.
Our landscaping services include specialized lawn care services adapted to lakefront conditions, comprehensive lawn and landscape maintenance services for seasonal properties, professional landscaping maintenance programs, careful snow removal, and complete removal service for storm debris, ensuring top quality results that preserve Excelsior's lakefront charm.

What Our Clients Say About Our Services
Real Questions From Excelsior Homeowners
Our lakefront property has steep slopes and challenging access. Can you create usable outdoor space without ruining our lake views?
Steep lakefront properties offer dramatic design opportunities in Excelsior. We work with natural contours, creating terraced outdoor rooms that frame lake views rather than blocking them. Our multi-level systems provide both intimate spaces and entertainment areas, using retaining walls and plantings for stability while preserving sight lines. We include pathways that wind toward the shoreline, creating multiple vantage points for enjoying Lake Minnetonka's beauty.
We want our landscape to feel authentically Excelsior while being low-maintenance enough for our busy lifestyle. Is that realistic?
This is completely achievable with the right design approach. We select plants and materials that thrive in lakefront conditions while reflecting the community's natural character. Our focus includes native species requiring minimal inputs, hardscape materials that age beautifully, and layouts working with natural site conditions. Many Excelsior landscapes improve over time as plantings mature, requiring less intervention while providing more beauty and better lakefront integration.
How do you handle landscape projects on lakefront properties while protecting water quality and meeting environmental regulations?
Environmental stewardship preserves Lake Minnetonka's health for future generations. We begin with comprehensive site assessment understanding water flow, soil conditions, and environmental sensitivities before installation. Our practices minimize soil disturbance, select plants providing natural filtration, and install rain gardens managing stormwater naturally. All work meets environmental standards while creating landscapes that improve water quality, ensuring your improvements contribute positively to Lake Minnetonka's health.
