Landscaping & Seasonal Care in Indian River, MI

When it comes to landscaping services in Indian River, MI, Hope Landscaping LLC keeps things simple—do it right, do it once, and keep it looking sharp all year long. Up here in Northern Michigan, the seasons can be tough on lawns and garden beds. Between spring mud, summer heat, and fall cleanups that never seem to end, most properties need a crew that knows the land, not just the equipment. That’s where we come in.


Since 1999, our team has been helping homeowners and property managers keep their yards, gardens, and landscapes in top shape—not just for looks, but for longevity. Whether it’s landscape maintenance, seasonal yard care, or full property upkeep, we make sure your outdoor space always looks cared for, no matter what month is on the calendar.

Built for Northern Michigan Life


Here’s the thing—landscaping in Northern Michigan isn’t like anywhere else. The soil shifts, the frost line’s deeper, and the weather changes by the hour. We’ve seen lawns go from lush to flooded overnight and gardens freeze up before the first snow even hits.


That’s why every bit of landscape maintenance we do is built around local conditions. We understand the drainage quirks, the native plant life, and how to make a property look good through every season. From Indian River to Petoskey and Harbor Springs, we’ve worked on everything from lakeside estates to cabin getaways tucked in the woods—each one with its own rhythm, soil type, and story.

Landscaping & Property Care—All Under One Roof


When you call Hope Landscaping, you don't have to deal with more than one business. We do all of the landscaping, grass care, and seasonal maintenance ourselves, using professional staff, modern tools, and a deep regard for the homes we take care of.


Our landscaping and seasonal care services include:

  • Lawn and Garden Care: Mowing, edging, fertilization, and seasonal planting that keeps your yard vibrant.
  • Landscape Maintenance: Mulching, pruning, and bed care to keep your property neat and healthy.
  • Seasonal Yard Care: Spring and fall cleanups, leaf removal, snow prep, and full property transitions.
  • Property Maintenance: Ongoing checkups for irrigation, drainage, and overall yard condition.
  • Custom Enhancements: From new garden layouts to small landscape redesigns, we help your property evolve over time.

Everything we do is built to last—from the soil prep under your sod to the maintenance plan that keeps your space thriving.

Real Experience, Real Results

After 25 years in this industry, we’ve learned what works—and what fails fast. We’ve seen shortcuts cost homeowners more in the long run, so we don’t take them. Our approach is rooted in precision, timing, and good old-fashioned attention to detail.


Our founder, Spencer Hope, started with nothing more than a mower and a drive to do better than what he saw around him. Today, we’ve grown into one of Northern Michigan’s most trusted names in outdoor construction and property maintenance—because we’ve built our reputation one project, one yard, and one handshake at a time.
