2009 | Lake Waconia Shoreline

These Lake Waconia clients inherited a very common problem. Sterile rip-rap on their shore and a myriad of traditional landscaping that provided minimal habitat. We had an amazing time creating shoreline stabilization project on Lake Waconia. By understanding the client’s goals and designing a project that softened the rip-rap, we introduced an incredibly diverse and attractive shoreland buffer. The clients still have shore stability and recreational use, but now also have an exceptional looking shore that is ecologically functional and lake friendly.
