Sunset Escape

A backyard retreat designed for relaxation, connection and everyday enjoyment.

.

From dirt to dreamscape

When these homeowners moved into their newly built home, they were starting fresh with a completely blank backyard. They came to Nature’s Way Landscapes with a pre-existing design and a clear vision for their space — they just needed the right team to bring it to life. With a focus on quality craftsmanship and attention to detail, we helped transform their empty lot into a stunning outdoor escape.

Building beauty under a blazing sun

Thanks to the thoughtful design, construction went smoothly, allowing us to focus on precision and craftsmanship. The biggest challenge was working in the intense heat of June and July. Despite the scorching summer sun, our team powered through, staying efficient while delivering the high standards we’re known for.

The transformation began with a paver patio and walkway, seamlessly connecting the backyard to the front and setting the foundation for the space. A custom pergola was added to provide shade and comfort, while a built-in sauna — complete with integrated electrical work — created the ultimate relaxation retreat. To further enhance the space, we incorporated seat walls, offering both structure and additional seating for gatherings.

Beyond the visible elements, careful planning went into the unseen structure of the landscape. Retaining walls were built to provide essential support for the patio, while drainage solutions ensured proper water flow throughout the property. Low-voltage lighting was installed to enhance ambiance and extend the space’s usability into the evening. Finally, a combination of plantings, decorative rock, and drip irrigation tied everything together, creating a sustainable, low-maintenance landscape designed for effortless enjoyment.

"They were very responsive to our needs and didn't try to upsell us on features we didn't want or ask for. Even better, they were able to take on the relatively modest sized project quickly. Kenny is a very responsive business owner, communicates regularly with the crew, and checks in frequently. The crew that worked at our place was very timely, professional, courteous."
