Landscape Design in Hurricane Creek, AR

A yard can be one of two things: an overlooked patch of green that constantly needs mowing, or a lived-in space that feels like an extension of your home. The difference is landscape design—real, intentional, can’t-stop-staring-at-it kind of design.


Here in Hurricane Creek, where the landscape is already lush and full of potential, a well-thought-out design doesn’t fight nature, it works with it. And that’s where a skilled landscape designer comes in. 


They read the land, its slopes, its soil, and its sun exposure. They know what can withstand Arkansas humidity, what blooms best come spring, and how to create structure without making your space feel staged.


Good landscape design is more about long-term function than planting for pretty. You would want low-maintenance beds that still look alive in July; a way to prevent water from pooling around your foundation every time it storms. A professional sees that before you do. They balance the aesthetic with the practical aspects like grading, drainage, walkways, privacy screens, native plants that thrive.


And honestly, most people don’t need more yardwork, they need smart design that makes their outdoor space feel like it runs itself. That’s exactly what Garden Designs by R & L does. We're storytellers with a shovel. And if you’re ready to make your yard more “sip coffee and relax” than “pull weeds and curse,” we are the team you call.

About - Hurricane Creek, AR

Hurricane Creek is cradled in the heart of the Ozark National Forest. Known for its crystal-clear waters and the iconic natural rock bridge, a near-perfect 30-foot arch carved by time, it’s a haven for hikers, nature lovers, and anyone who craves peace with a touch of adventure. The area runs through Johnson and Newton counties, winding its way through the Hurricane Creek Wilderness, where sandstone bluffs tower over dense forests of hickory, pine, and dogwood. 


Trails like the Ozark Highlands Trail follow old pioneer roads, revealing waterfalls, rock shelters, and views you can’t unsee. You can go hiking past Pam’s Grotto or chase spring blooms along Longpool Falls Trail, this place is less about escaping life and more about reconnecting with it. With elevations topping 2,200 feet and landscapes shaped by rivers, wind, and time, it’s not just scenic, it’s soulful Arkansas wilderness at its finest.
