Why Western North Carolina Homeowners Trust Reems Creek Outdoor Solutions
Nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains, the Reems Creek Valley is one of Western North Carolina’s most scenic and ecologically diverse landscapes. Creating outdoor spaces here requires more than a generic approach — it demands a deep understanding of mountain soil conditions, seasonal weather patterns, native plant communities, and the unique aesthetic that defines Appalachian living.
Reems Creek Outdoor Solutions was built on exactly that foundation. As a locally owned and operated company, the team doesn’t just work in this landscape — they live in it. That’s what separates them from regional chains or out-of-area contractors who treat every project the same regardless of geography.
From the first consultation to the final walkthrough, clients experience a process that’s collaborative, transparent, and focused on long-term results. The goal isn’t just a beautiful yard for this season — it’s an outdoor environment that thrives for years to come.
Comprehensive Outdoor Services Tailored to Your Property
Every property in the Reems Creek area is different. Some sit on steep mountain slopes with challenging drainage. Others are flat, open lots that beg for structure and definition. Some clients want low-maintenance landscapes; others want lush, layered gardens full of color and life. Our full-service approach means there’s a solution for every situation.
Hardscaping & Outdoor Living Structures
One of the most impactful investments a homeowner can make is adding functional hardscape elements to their outdoor space. Patios, retaining walls, walkways, fire pit areas, and outdoor kitchens don’t just add aesthetic value — they extend the usable square footage of your home into the outdoors.
Reems Creek Outdoor Solutions uses premium natural stone, pavers, and locally sourced materials whenever possible. This not only creates a cohesive look with the surrounding mountain environment but also ensures durability in WNC’s freeze-thaw climate cycles. According to the National Association of Home Builders, well-designed outdoor living spaces can increase a home’s resale value by up to 15% — making hardscaping one of the smartest upgrades you can make.
Landscape Design & Installation
Great landscapes begin with great plans. The design phase is where vision meets reality, and it’s where Reems Creek Outdoor Solutions truly excels. The team works closely with homeowners to understand how they use their outdoor space, what they love visually, and what level of maintenance they’re comfortable with.
From there, a custom planting plan is developed that incorporates a mix of native species, ornamental plants, and seasonal color. Native plants like mountain laurel, switchgrass, black-eyed Susan, and river birch are favorites for their adaptability to local conditions and their value to local pollinators — a priority supported by organizations like the National Wildlife Federation.
Retaining Walls & Erosion Control
Sloped properties in the mountains require special attention to erosion and water management. A poorly graded yard or an improperly installed retaining wall can result in costly damage over time. Reems Creek Outdoor Solutions specializes in functional retaining wall systems that solve real drainage and erosion problems while looking great in the process.
Whether it’s a dry-stack stone wall that blends naturally into the hillside or an engineered block system designed for heavy load-bearing, the team has the experience to deliver walls that stand the test of time.

Lawn Care & Maintenance Programs
A stunning outdoor space needs consistent care to remain that way. Reems Creek Outdoor Solutions offers seasonal maintenance programs designed to keep your landscape healthy and looking its best through every season. Services include mowing, fertilization, pruning, mulching, leaf removal, and more — all tailored to the specific needs of your property and plant palette.
Regular professional maintenance also allows for early detection of pest and disease issues, soil deficiencies, and drainage problems before they become expensive headaches. Visit the main services page to learn more about what’s included in ongoing care plans.
Irrigation & Water Management
Efficient water use is both an environmental responsibility and a practical necessity for landscape health. Reems Creek Outdoor Solutions designs and installs irrigation systems that deliver the right amount of water to the right places — reducing waste, lowering utility bills, and keeping plants thriving even during dry spells.
Smart irrigation technology, including rain sensors and zone-based programming, ensures that your system adapts to real-time weather conditions. The EPA’s WaterSense program estimates that efficient irrigation can save homeowners up to 50% on outdoor water use — a compelling reason to invest in a professionally designed system.
The Reems Creek Difference: Local Expertise Meets Creative Vision
There are plenty of landscaping companies operating in Western North Carolina. What makes Reems Creek Outdoor Solutions stand out isn’t just the quality of the work — it’s the depth of understanding they bring to every project.
The team has spent years working specifically in the Reems Creek Valley and the greater Asheville area, learning the nuances of local microclimates, soil types, and plant communities. That regional expertise means fewer costly mistakes, more appropriate plant selections, and designs that look like they belong in this landscape — because they were created for it.
Clients also appreciate the communication style. From initial estimate to project completion, the team keeps homeowners informed, answers questions thoroughly, and treats every property with the same level of care they’d want for their own yards.
Sustainable Landscaping Practices for the Mountain Environment
Reems Creek Outdoor Solutions is committed to environmentally responsible practices. This means prioritizing native and adaptive plantings, minimizing chemical inputs, building healthy soil through organic amendments, and designing systems that work with nature rather than against it.
Sustainable landscaping doesn’t mean sacrificing beauty — in fact, landscapes that work with local ecology tend to be more vibrant, more resilient, and more satisfying over time. Pollinator gardens, rain gardens, and naturalistic plantings are all growing trends that align with both ecological values and contemporary design aesthetics.
If you’re interested in creating a yard that supports local wildlife and reduces your environmental footprint, the team at Reems Creek Outdoor Solutions can design a plan that meets those goals without compromising on curb appeal.

Do you use native plants in your landscape designs?
