Hardscape contractor — patios, boulder walls & driveways — Prior Lake, MN
See our work →Prior Lake properties deserve hardscape that matches the setting
Prior Lake is one of the Twin Cities' most desirable lake communities — a Scott County suburb built around Prior Lake and Spring Lake, with waterfront properties, rolling terrain, and homeowners who invest seriously in their outdoor spaces. The lake setting creates specific demand for naturalistic hardscape — boulder walls that follow shoreline grades, natural stone steps for lakeshore access, and patios oriented toward the water.
Heritage Outdoors brings the same standards we've applied at Wayzata Country Club and throughout the Lake Minnetonka corridor to every Prior Lake project. Lakeside terrain is something we understand — proper drainage routing, boulder fabric placed correctly, stone sized and set with care. The result looks like it belongs, because it was built to belong.
Heritage Outdoors is a family operation. Jacob and Haven are involved in every project from the first call to the final walkthrough. You're not hiring a company that sends a crew you've never met. You're hiring us.

Prior Lake properties have specific challenges
"Prior Lake is lake-country terrain — the same kind of sloped, naturalistic properties we've built for along the Lake Minnetonka corridor. We know how to build hardscape that belongs in that setting, not hardscape that looks out of place next to the water."
— Jacob, Heritage Outdoors
