La Crescenta-Montrose

Garden View Landscape, Nursery & Pools proudly serves La Crescenta-Montrose, California with custom pool construction and landscape construction—built around the way you actually live outside.

La Crescenta-Montrose has a very particular foothills feel: mountain views, quiet neighborhoods, and a mix of “regular” lots and hillside properties where grade changes, drainage, and terracing matter just as much as finishes. Some backyards are made for simple, comfortable upgrades (a refreshed patio, new planting, better lighting). Others need a more engineered approach—steps, retaining solutions, and thoughtful water management—so the space performs well through storms and seasonal runoff.

We’re based nearby in Monrovia, so we know these foothill projects well. Our team plans the pool area and the surrounding landscape as one complete environment: where the pool sits, how you move from the house to the patio, where shade and privacy make the biggest difference, and which materials will hold up long-term. The goal is always the same—an outdoor space that feels natural, finished, and easy to enjoy day to day.
