Outdoor Creations was wonderful to work with! We had a large retaining wall built and are very happy with the finished project. The crew kept us in the loop on how things were going and stayed on schedule despite several unforeseen complications with our property. I would recommend them to anyone who values quality workmanship.

We were very happy with our experience with Outdoor Creations from the consultation phase to the completion of the project. Kevin and his employees were very professional. They sought our input and made sure that we approved of each step of the project before going on to the next. They were very easy to work with and were very good about answering any questions we had. We were very happy with the outcome of our project and would definitely recommend them!

We had a "vision" of what we wanted in a new patio and worked with Kevin to implement it. His cooperation and suggestions made planning it fairly simple.
As the work began, Kevin and Steve ,who headed the Outdoor Creations crew, offered additional suggestions, which resulted in improving our original design. And it was all done during 2010's awful summer heat!
As a result of Steve's work on our patio, and Outdoor Creations flexibility and cooperation, we had a new front walkway put in which not only matches the beauty of our patio but resolved a serious drainage problem.
We're very happy with our experience with Outdoor Creations!

We hired Kevin Manternach of Outdoor Creations to help solve our problem of having a corn field drain into our yard. Our yard was often filled with puddles after a rainfall or snowmelt and our sump pump ran constantly to keep up with the water. Kevin took the time to listen to our concerns and checked out our current landscape. He came up with a plan to add tiling through our yard to drain the water away from the house. The project was done quickly and professionally and the cost was very fair. We have seen a major decrease in the amount of water standing in our yard after a rain or snowmelt as well as a decrease in the frequency that our sump pump has to run. We thank Kevin for solving our water problem. We highly recommend Outdoor Creations and would use them again for our future landscaping needs.

Kevin and his crew were great to work with. Kevin went out of his way to locate a certain shrub that I wanted. But most of all, I appreciated the tidiness of the crew & project. When I came home at the end of day, other than the addition of trees & shrubs to my lawn, I would not have known anyone was even there!

I hired Outdoor Creations via a recommendation from my neighbor. The work included a retaining wall, a set of block stairs, some tiling work, and new sod for my front and side yards.
They took my list of requests and designed a backyard that was exactly what I was looking for.
I liked their work so much I had them do some additional landscaping in the front yard which also turned out great!
Kevin and his guys are excellent to work with, their pricing is affordable, and I will be calling them back when it's time to do an outdoor patio!
Two thumbs up!

Outdoor Creations has been maintaining my lawn for several years now and the service is exceptional! The results I've gotten are far superior to ANY company I've tried before and the rates are very reasonable. Kevin takes the time to listen and to understand exactly what I want and carefully formulates a plan to make that happen. I've referred many family members and friends to Outdoor Creations and none of them have been disappointed!

Plum Creek Golf Course hired the services of Outdoor Creations to design a landscape and plant shrubs around our grill house. The project was above and beyond our expectations. Numerous compliments were received from local and visiting golfers. We highly recommend Outdoor Creations for all your seasonal landscaping projects!

I was so impressed with the landscaping project at the new sports complex in Monticello that I had to have a design for an unused area at the Berndes Center. Kevin Manternach of Outdoor Creations produced a visually balanced design that when completed, received numerous compliments. Phase I is now pleasing to the eye and a topic of conversation.
The work that Kevin and his crew did, from the design to the finished project to the explanation of the care and upkeep of the plants, was more than I expected. They went above and beyond to make sure I was happy with the completed project. They put the same care and knowledge into my smaller projects as he does with any larger ones. If I have questions, I can call any time.
From start to finish it is a professional experience and I am looking forward to working with them again for Phase II in 2009.

We have had Kevin Manternach (Outdoor Creations) do several projects for us. Kevin not only has an open ear for our thoughts, he also has a combination of creative talent and experience. Kevin has done a large number and variety of projects he can draw. Kevin provided us great options and we ended-up with what we thought met our needs. Kevin has done an exceptional job on a variety of projects for us, from over 100' of sidewalk made out of paving bricks, to a specially lit flag and pole area, to landscaping and yard and garden care. He has done these projects in a way that if we decide to expand in the future, it is expandable. Kevin came in with a fair estimate in advance of the job and his final cost was very fair. I love people that are super dedicated to their work and do their work exceptionally well...Kevin is one of those individuals. We would highly recommend Kevin and we will use him again in the future.
