“Lisa and her crew at Lake Hill Gardens have been designing, planting, and creating stunning landscapes at our home for the past three years. Their work even predates our residency here. I’m consistently amazed each time I drive up to the house and see the magnificent gardens blooming with diverse colors, shapes, and sizes. Highly recommend!!”
– Jennifer T.
“Lisa designed and has maintained the gardens at our property for over 11 years and we could not be more pleased with how much beauty they have added to our home. A true professional with a great design sense, customer focused and fun to work with – we highly recommend.”
– Al M.
“Lisa has worked with our garden for a few years now. Not only does she do a fantastic job of keeping it beautiful, but she makes it her business to come regularly rather than just waiting for us to get around to calling her. She has made some really wonderful suggestions. She’s knowledgeable, thoughtful, responsive, and pleasant to work with, and her fees are reasonable.”
– Jessica F. and Spencer G.

“Lake Hill Gardens has brought a magical woodland garden to life at our Woodstock home. From the very first daffodils of spring, through the high summer blooms, ending with a perfect fall cleanup, we could not be happier with the creativity and care we receive from Lisa and her team.”
– Angela Landon & Jim Pisano
“Meeting Lisa is one of the best things that happened to my garden and me. I have over an acre of gardens with 7 flower beds and a large deck filled with potted plants. As I grew older, I found it impossible to take care of all of them, especially as a weekender. Lisa came highly recommended by a mutual friend in 2019. She immediately started to work on my gardens and my deck. She is not just a gardener, but a horticultrice. She has in depth knowledge of plants. Before long, my garden was blooming with colorful local plants, especially those that the deer do not like. My prize collection is my over 50 peony bushes. Before Lisa joined us, each plant only produced one flower, if any at all. As a result of Lisa’s careful tending, my peonies are very happy and produce many flowers. I highly recommend Lisa to anyone who wants to have a beautiful garden.”
– Fanny G.
“We have been happily working with Lisa Ketchum and Lake Hill Gardens for the last 10 years. I like that she listens to my ideas and builds upon them to make them better … teaching me about plants that are most suitable for my garden conditions and easy care. It is our pleasure to recommend her.”
– Marjory B.
“We have entrusted Lisa of Lake Hill Gardens to take care of our gardens for the last 8 years & she never disappoints. Whether she is recommending new plants to add or pruning old ones, we always learn something and the gardens blossom.”
– Jim R.
“Lake Hill Gardens has been tending to my gardens for almost 20 years now. They are always well maintained and beautiful. Watching the garden’s evolve over the years has been delightful. Lisa is always kind and professional – she is a true pleasure to work with!”
– Deb S.
“Lisa is a true professional. In the 25+ years that she has gardened for me, I have never been disappointed. She is reliable and imaginative. Her suggestions for new plantings always succeed. I have received many compliments on my gardens due to Lisa’s handiwork.”
– Mary L.
“I know zero about plants so when we bought our house in 2020 and ‘inherited’ Lake Hill Gardens from the previous owner I had no idea how lucky I would turn out to be. Not only does she create a spectacular garden, but Lisa is a thoughtful planner who always explains things to me and keeps my budget in mind as well. When we renovated our house and had our rehearsal dinner outside last summer, Lisa and her team did heroic work to get the entire property ready for the big day. I really can’t recommend her enough!”
