Lakefront Landscape Design
If you live on waterfront property, you already understand how wonderful the land is. You want to make the most out of your yard to enjoy it to the fullest.
Landscaping is an essential part of making the most out of your lakefront views. When designing a landscape, it’s important that you consider both hardscape and green areas to create spaces that are well-suited for outdoor living at its finest form–a balance between nature’s beauty with man-made elements like paving stone walkways or fire pits.
Patios and Decks
A deck or patio is a great addition to any lake property. When complete, it will add value and expand your living space by providing outdoor seating for entertaining guests in comfort—especially if you have a view of the water. The choice of material for your deck can make a world of difference in the way it looks and feels. You might opt to use natural wood, cedar, or redwood; you could also try out composite materials like pressure-treated lumber.
Patios are a great way to transform your outdoor living space into an extension of the house. They’re constructed from hard materials like brick, concrete, or stone tiles and pavers which give them that durable feel while also adding aesthetic appeal with their colors ruling any landscape design style you have in mind.
Walkways, Pathways, And Driveways
Imagine the delight of arriving at your lakeside home for summer vacation or retirement days with an attractive driveway that leads up to a beautiful walkway. You can’t beat this visual appeal. A dynamic front entrance adds pleasing curb appeal and increases the value of your home.
The perfect stone for your lake-dwelling is one that complements not only the style of the home but also its surroundings. Whether you go with solid pavers to create a lustrous contemporary look, or charming steppingstones lending an English cottage feel – always choose surfaces that match well against other features like architecture and natural landscape elements.
Call the professionals at My Landscaper. We have the experience you need when it comes to finding the perfect landscape design for any property. Let us help you decide between different materials, like brick versus concrete or bluestone vs granite stones – all while making sure that you get exactly what you want in terms of style.
Retaining Walls
If you have a sloping lakeside landscape, the best way to make it more interesting and useful for your property is with retaining walls. Hillside terraces not only add visual interest but also reduce soil erosion by slowing down rainwater as well as directing it into drainage systems that can carry away excess water during wet periods or after storms without flooding your property.
Low retaining walls are perfect for adding extra seating and creating an elegant walkway down to the shore. Retaining wall supports hold everything in place, discreetly and can even double as a stylish add-on when paired with other elements like stairs or ramps that create pathways throughout your property.
When considering a retaining wall, selecting the right materials for your home and its surroundings is important. There are many options available from brick and stone walls all the way down to concrete or treated wood pieces that can make an architectural style statement on their own.

Fireplaces and Fire Pits
The addition of a fireplace or outdoor fire pit will create an inviting ambiance that is perfect for relaxation at your lakefront property. Indoor fires are all well and good, but nothing beats sitting by the fire while enjoying nature outside.
The fireplace is a wonderful architectural element that can bring elegance and grace to any outdoor space. It takes up less room than an open fire pit, ensuring you have enough surface area for other features like furniture or paving stones in your patio/pavilion design. The smoke from these chimneys rises upward away from your home providing a fresh air environment.
The fire pit is a great way to create ambiance and warmth for your lake home. You can have seating all around it for family gatherings, like roasting marshmallows or making s’mores. It’s important to be mindful of what view you want to showcase and choose an immovable fire pit that can fit in the perfect spot. The landscaping professionals at My Landscaper will help with placement—where lake breezes move away from any unwanted smoke or ash from other outdoor areas.
