Iron Horse mows my lawn in Spanish Springs, and I couldn't be happier. They show up when they say they will, do a clean, thorough job, and leave the yard looking sharp every time. Friendly, reliable, and fairly priced. It's one less thing I have to worry about. Highly recommend them to anyone in the area looking for dependable lawn care!

I had a great experience with Iron Horse Lawn and Landscaping crew! The original bid was a little high, but they were willing to match another estimate and even fit me in early when they had a cancellation. The team was professional, quick and did a really clean job. I’m really happy with the service and would definitely recommend them.

Nicole Tucker1 reviewiTotal number of Google reviews Nicole has written across all businesses on Google Maps, not just this one.
This team has been amazing. I started with weekly yard maintenance and scheduled a yard cleanup about a month out. The weekly service has been great and they worked with my scheduling, which was amazing. They just completed my yard cleanup and it was a big job that included trimming back 5 big pushes, 2 rose bushes, wedding out tons of flowers beds and shoveling out and laying river rock around my mailbox. It looks fantastic. I love that they are a small crew and family owned. I look forward to working with them for years to come.
