James is a consummate professional. His knowledge of landscaping is unparalleled and I’ve never met anyone that cares for his work more. His attention to detail is outstanding. I’ve worked with him several times with many different projects and I Highly recommend.

I called James from Dreamscapes Water Features around 10 years ago. He transformed my backyard into what we call “the magical garden”. James is so knowledgeable and passionate about his work and it shows in the final result. We loved our garden so much that we had James do the landscaping at some of our other properties. You won’t be disappointed!

James and his crew did a wonderful job at our house. Our front yard went from ho hum to WOW! He is knowledgeable and easy to work with, friendly and most of all talented as a landscape artist. Highly recommend!

Covid came ... and we stared at our bleak backyard. And stared.

James was working on the property across the street creating a beautiful French garden. Perfect timing. James and his incredibly crew crossed the street and gave us the most wonderful new world on our hillside.
Then we asked him to do the front yard and then the slope down to the street. We live on a well-hiked road, and maybe what's the most gratifying is how many people comment on how beautiful our yard is.
It's lush, water-conscious, colorful, and reasonably low maintenance!
THANK YOU to James, your Team, and Dreamscapes!

James is the most visionary water feature designer I’ve ever met. He transformed my backyard in to an oasis. He was also very receptive to my input and catered to my requests at every opportunity. You won’t regret giving him a. Hanae to improve your yard.

Dreamscapes has made two gorgeous water features for my home over 7 years ago and still runs perfectly and now today I met with James again from Dreamscapes to modify one of the waterfalls to make it bigger. He is very knowledgeable and great with landscape design and knows all his plants and trees and what works best for your landscape and environment. Would not choose anyone else for the job

Wow - what can I say! Having a Dreamscape Water Feature has transformed the energy in our backyard and it's something that I enjoy everyday, many times a day. We're so glad that we stumbled upon another of James' projects and got in touch with this landscape artist. James has a passion and pride in his work that is unparalleled. It was a great adventure to collaborate with James on plant selection (both at the nursery and via many emails), design, aesthetics, and adjustments as we went through the project. James is very attentive and was great at translating my general ideas into a functioning work of art! The waterfall is the most natural looking water feature that I have seen - no visible concrete or odd rocks to give away that it's manmade. It truly looks like a part of the landscape. I might even say that it has become the centerpiece of our home - everyone (especially our kids) love it and are drawn to it. The value was also outstanding! We highly recommend James & his crew - they're top notch, all-around.

Dreamscapes has made such a difference in our gardens, front and back. They have restored, fixed, planted, pruned, and helped us envision new landscaping possibilities. I turn to James and crew with all my garden challenges and they have never let us down. They are the best!
