Around Glen Arbor
Lawn care and landscaping for Glen Arbor.
Glen Arbor is a lakeshore community of 261 with Glen Lake on one side and Lake Michigan on the other. The ground near the shore is dune sand, so lawns here dry out quickly. Lakefront lawns are a big part of the mowing, and cedar and pine shade drops needles in the beds. Weekly mowing, striping, trimming and edging cover cottage yards and commercial grounds alike.
Many cottages are second homes, so spring cleanup comes before the season and fall cleanup closes it. Tidying the beds and borders goes with that. Compressor at the truck, every irrigation zone, until the heads spray only air. Reach out and ask for a free estimate.

Questions
Lawn care and landscaping in Glen Arbor: questions.
Do you mow lakefront lawns near Glen Lake?
Lakefront lawns are part of the work, along with homes and commercial grounds. The cut is weekly, and striping, trimming and edging are part of it. Call, and a free estimate is the next step.
How do I close a Glen Arbor cottage's sprinklers for winter?
Blowing out the sprinklers is a fall service. Air from the truck compressor goes through every zone, and the job is done when the heads spray only air. Call ahead of your last trip for the season and ask about a free estimate.
Do you cut grass in Glen Arbor?
Yes. Glen Arbor is in Leelanau County, inside the Northern Michigan area we cover. Estimates are free. Call Traverse City on 231-944-8752 or use the form on this page and tell us the address.
What else can you do on a property in Glen Arbor besides mowing?
Spring and fall cleanups, beds and borders, irrigation blowouts, snow removal and ice management, power washing and soft washing, and parking lot or street sweeping. One crew and one number, all year.
Do you blow out sprinkler systems in Glen Arbor?
Yes, in the fall, before the freeze. We hook the compressor up at the truck, run the line to your system and push the water out of every zone, so nothing is left in the pipes to freeze and crack over the winter.
