Square Lake Superstar Recommendation
As a four-decade Square Lake homeowner, I’m frequently asked for recommendations of notable service providers in our community. Here is my latest local Superstar Recommendation for SLA member consideration:
After growing up in the Stillwater area and gaining hands-on experience with several landscaping companies, my esteemed friend and business entrepreneur Gavin Madison launched his locally owned and operated Madison’s Landscapes & Snow in early 2023 while completing his degree in Entrepreneurship through the University of Minnesota. After earning his degree at the end of 2024, Gavin is now fully focused on building Madison’s Landscapes & Snow (MLS) into a leading local provider of high-quality landscaping, hardscaping, lawn and snow services.
Gavin’s mother and father, Erin and Jeff, are highly valued members of our Square Lake Association.
My experience with MLS’s CEO Gavin Madison, Lead Foreman Gavin Zurn, and their exceptionally talented team of landscape, and property management professionals - has been consistently positive and praise-worthy. Engaged services include all types of property management services: lawn-mowing, leaf raking, weed removal, black dirt and mulch application, roadway gravel grading, buckthorn removal, beach maintenance, fallen tree branch removal, and snow removal on walkways, driveways, and easement roadways.
Team MLS collectively possess a unique passion for service excellence – including meticulous attention to detail; adaptive planning; service efficiency; quality control; clear, detailed, and empathetic communications; competitive, value-based pricing; and continuous service improvement.
Importantly, my praise for Gavin’s exceptionally talented team is shared by many other satisfied MLS customers.
