    A Backyard Escape Centered Around the Pool

    For this project, the goal was to create a dynamic outdoor environment that enhances the pool experience while tying the entire yard together. Ganshert Landscapes designed and installed a full suite of custom features, including raised stone retaining walls, elegant walkways, and layered planting beds. These additions bring structure, flow, and visual impact to the space. The elevated pool deck offers multiple gathering zones, from lounge chairs to shaded dining, all unified by high quality materials and thoughtful craftsmanship. The result is a private oasis that’s both practical and picturesque.

    From the moment we met Sean, we knew we were in good hands. He was incredibly personable and immediately understood our vision for the landscape of our new home. The connection was instant, and his ability to design a layout that not only complemented our house but also transitioned beautifully through the seasons was absolutely mind-blowing
