**★ — Annemarie Corver, Nov. 2017**

> We had a great meeting with Mick and thought we were all on the same page. Then we contacted him to give him the go-ahead, left a message and never heard from him again...
> Very disappointing.

**Comment from Johnson Creek Landscaping:**

> Annemarie,
> Thanks for the feedback. This is not how we normally do business and for that I apologize. I have to admit, I don't remember interacting with you. Could you please call or send me a private email with details of any meeting(s) we had. That would help for me to understand where I went wrong in our dealings and to make sure it won't happen again.
> Sincerely,
> Mick

**★★★★★ — chuckparsons2, May 2015**

> Mick Johnson is a great landscape designer who will work with you to stay within your budget.  He follows through and gets the job done.  He stands by his work and material; he replaced low voltage lights that burned out even 1.5 years after the job was done.  Four evergreens shrubs died the first winter, he replaced all of them no extra charge.  Mick is easy to work with and his crew returns year after year.

**★★★★★ — karenleeklein, April 2015**

> We've worked with Mick Johnson and Johnson Creek since 2001. Talented in many ways, Mick is particularly good at transforming small spaces into beautiful, functional areas.  He designed our original back and front yard - pavers, raised flower beds, pond/waterfall - and has helped us maintain and improve our landscaping right up to April, 2015.  He and his crew are prompt, knowledgeable, professional and easy to work with. He personally oversees the project and is at the site initiating the project, checking in during the process, and making sure to review everything with us at its completion. Our last project - expanding our patio, replacing pavers, updating waterfall, redoing our front stoop and mulching our gardens - was completed in one day! The cost range listed below is for our latest project.

**★★★★★ — pgsheridan, Aug. 2014**

> This is the 6th project I have had done with Mick and his crew. Johnson Creek is arguably the best residential landscape firm in the Twin Cities...Design, Installation, Maintenance - they do it all and do it right!

**★★★★★ — mulberry46, April 2014**

> I have used Mick Johnson and his team from Johnson Creek Landscaping for over 15 years. I have always been impressed with their design, quality and professionalism, and give them my highest recommendation!

## Community Q&A

**Q: where did you get the statue** *(in Photo Questions)*

It is a tall white statue of a woman

A: Our client purchase the stature and I'm not sure where they bought it. Sorry.
But the subject is a woman.

**Q: Stone stairs?** *(in Photo Questions)*

What kind of stone was used for the wall and stairs?

A: The steps are Bluestone as is the patterned paving stone. The wall/bench stone is a limestone called Oakfield quarried from Wisconsin. This was a fun project mixing stone types and uses!
