“Our designs from Marissa Sterrett have benefitted our way of living, bringing the outdoors into a functional and beautiful escape. Marissa has always listened to our main objectives and incorporated these objectives into her designs, but does this in a very aesthetic, beautiful and peaceful way. She is thoughtful and purposeful not only in the function of the design, but in the plant materials that she picks out, placement of these materials, and overall experience that lasts for all 4 seasons in Colorado! We HIGHLY recommend Marissa Sterrett. She is diligent, punctual, attentive, and extremely professional. We are lucky to have found her and have benefitted from her beautiful designs for over 10 years and 2 homes!” Chris and Lauren H.

“Marissa is an absolute joy to work with.  She collaborated with us to create an outdoor space that fit our budget and style.  Our garden is inviting and bright, and Marissa's design is simultaneously approachable and timeless.  She understands construction, too, which helps her to collaborate and communicate with different trades.  She incorporated lighting, a fireplace, and a pergola with plants and trees that have made our outdoor space one the whole family loves.  She is responsive and a wonderful communicator, not to mention approachable and fun.  She took great care to make us feel special and our project unique.”  Courtney L.

“You were like balm to the soul for me with your ideas and thoughts. You are a delight to work with. I have received so many compliments for the design you did in the front yard. In fact, a picture was taken and placed in the neighborhood newsletter showing the beautiful design of the wall and placement of the flowers. I almost wish I lived across the street as my neighbors get the best view of your work.” Pat P.

“We’ve met some lovely people because of our landscaping. In upgrading our landscaping we have regularly asked for Marissa Sterrett’s counsel, design ideas, and installation supervision. She has remained a trusted partner when we’re looking for ideas or have questions about caring for our landscaping. Marissa’s the best!” John and Ruth P.

“It was a pleasure working with you.  You are friendly and professional, knowledgeable and accessible.  These are all important traits when working with a landscape designer.  We have especially enjoyed sharing some of the bounty of our garden with you.  We will definitely use your services again as we expand our current gardens or create new ones.  And I would highly recommend you to anyone considering beautification of their own gardens.” Howard L.

“Marissa did an exemplary job creating a comprehensive landscape plan for our half acre residential lot.  Her design far exceeded our expectations!  She listened to our needs and desires and came back with a lovely plan for an expansive outdoor patio space plus ample garden beds for native plants and pollinator habitat as well as designated areas for vegetable gardens and composting. We love being in our new backyard, watching the birds in the fountain, seeing the bees buzzing around the plants and shrubs and playing ping pong and grilling out with family and friends!  I can't recommend her highly enough:  she is lovely to work with, listens and understands her clients' needs, and is a gifted landscape designer.”   Robin F.

“Chalet Development delivered the Cotswold design and home we had envisioned. Marissa Sterrett created the landscape design to enhance the Cotswold effect. An informal garden at the front of the home blooms throughout the growing season. A low Boxwood hedge adds a formality in the rear. Chanticleer Pear trees grow up, not out and create a distinctive southern border. And a unique wood and stone fence, also a Marissa design, lines the edges of the small property and gives the home an outsized presence.” Curt H.
