This summer we looked at several recent installations of stonework patios around Wintergreen before turning to Creation Appreciation (540-456-6196) to put in a bluestone patio in our front yard. It was the right decision. The attention to detail was excellent, but more impressive was how when the plan went a bit sideways the management and crew handled the problems with ease.

We can highly recommend Creation Appreciation (540-456-6196) who worked with us on a hardscape design that included an apron at the front of our stone driveway, a stone walkway along the front of our house, and the repair and improvement of paver steps and walkway on the side and in the back of our house. The project took over 3 weeks. The crew who performed the work was extremely skilled and meticulous in the placement of every single stone and paver. At the end of each day, they stored their tools and equipment and made sure all trash and debris were removed. Chris Kell worked closely with his team and checked in with us almost daily. We are so pleased; the end result was exactly what we wanted! Submitted by Patti & Grant Heggie. August 2022
It was almost magical how the crew from Creation Appreciation (540-456-6196) convinced the tree that the heavy snow brought slowly down on our house to fly up and away with zero additional damage to the rhododendron under it, not to mention our house. It's wasn't magic, but instead skillful roping and tactical cutting on our steep roof to remove the weight of the tree's limbs so that leverage shifted, allowing the roped tree to lift itself up and swing harmlessly away from the house into the yard. It was hilarious. The crew then ran the entire tree and all of our downed limbs into their huge shredder and cleaned up the area with leafblowers. The bill for this expertise was very reasonable.

Creation Appreciation Landscaping (540-456-6196) did a great job on re-graveling our driveway. They came within two days when called for an estimate. Adam gave us a very reasonable estimate and suggested some things about the driveway. Took what we wanted and we came to an agreement. Then, within a week, we have a new driveway. It looks great and feels so nice driving on. Highly recommend using them. Adam Ellinger. September 2020
I highly recommend Jeremy Parker and Creation Appreciation for all kinds of landscape work. We have worked with Jeremy for over 10 years and couldn’t be more pleased, He helps us with grass seeding and maintenance, all but the most ginormous of our tree work, big planting jobs, and big mulching jobs. His crew has moved several very large shrubs halfway across the yard and they relocated happily. They have built stone steps and stone walls and have solved drainage problems. Great company to work with. Becca Elliott [Creation Appreciation received several recommendations in 2010.]
We have used Creation Appreciation http://www.creationappreciationlandscaping.com (540-456-6196) for years on several different landscaping jobs. The landscaper installed a gravel walkway on our mountain house that looked great and remains maintenance-free. They have taken down trees for us, trimmed limbs from trees in awkward high spots, and they have been our source of high-quality firewood for several years. They recently did some good work on renovating our lawn in Stoney Creek. They have done excellent stonework for my neighbors. They are a good source for small loads of mulch or gravel.
