Professional Landscaping in Highland Township, Michigan
Custom landscaping for Highland Township's lakefront homes, wooded properties, and rural estates.
Earth Art Landscaping serves Highland Township, Michigan, a community of approximately 20,000 residents in western Oakland County. Highland Township's character is shaped by its lakes -- Duck Lake, White Lake (shared with White Lake Township), and numerous smaller bodies of water -- along with the Highland State Recreation Area's 5,900 acres of natural land.
We understand Highland Township's unique position within Oakland County and design every landscape to reflect the community's character, meet its specific soil and climate conditions, and deliver results that grow more impressive with each passing season.
Highland Township's Natural Character
Lakes, recreation areas, and rural roads define a community rooted in Michigan's natural landscape.
Lakefront and Woodland Landscaping
Highland Township properties along Duck Lake, Tipsico Lake, and the numerous smaller lakes require landscapes designed around water access and view preservation. We install lakefront patios positioned for sunset views, natural stone pathways connecting the home to the waterfront, and shoreline plantings that stabilize banks while keeping sightlines open.
The township's interior properties near the Highland State Recreation Area and along Milford Road feature wooded parcels with mature oak-hickory forests. These properties benefit from our woodland landscape approach: natural stone features, shade-adapted plantings, and designs that enhance rather than replace the natural forest setting.
Highland Township's rural roads and larger lot sizes allow for landscape elements that would not fit on suburban properties -- long paver driveways, estate-scale boulder walls, and expansive outdoor living spaces with room for full outdoor kitchens.
Landscaping Challenges in Highland Township
Highland Township's varied terrain -- from lakeside flats to wooded hillsides -- means soil, drainage, and sun conditions change significantly from property to property. We assess each site individually rather than applying standardized solutions.
The township's rural infrastructure means some properties have long access drives that complicate material delivery and equipment staging. We plan logistics carefully and coordinate deliveries to minimize inconvenience.
Deer, wild turkeys, and other wildlife are abundant in Highland Township. Planting plans prioritize deer-resistant species and we recommend protective measures for any vulnerable plants during their first two growing seasons.
