When landscaping a beachfront cottage, it’s important to stay true to your vision and get the look you are going for. When we work with a client, there is no one size fits all option, and we do our best to help them get exactly what they are looking for. While we must select grass, plants and trees which will thrive in the high humidity, heat and very salty soil near the water, we have the know-how to select plants to achieve the ideal look for your design preferences.

Landscaping a beachfront cottage typically involves the incorporation of the natural beauty and landscape of the waterfront with complimentary plants and trees which are made to accentuate and house while blending with the natural environment. In Fort Myers, we can use the perfect palm trees, rich vegetation and flowering plants to give your home the ideal coastal look and they will all thrive in the climate and soil.

In many cases, we are trying to work with the natural canvas of the beach when we landscape on the water, and the goal is to create a space which feels natural. Owners put their own stamp on the design through the addition of gardens with meandering lines, customized walkways to the water and the addition of focal points such as water features, larger trees or even outdoor lighting.

An important element of any landscape design is to consider the home’s architecture. Since we are discussing a beachfront cottage in this scenario, you can incorporate almost any underlying style to your landscape design. Whether you want to make it a vibrant outdoor space and embrace the tropical feel, create a classy look with a more Southern style or you are a fan of the simplicity of a mid-century design, we can incorporate elements of your preferences with the natural environment to create the perfect space for you to spend time outdoors and feel like you’re always on vacation.

If your beachfront cottage needs a new landscape design or you need a refresh on the current space, we have the expertise to help. Give us a call today for more information.
