Crete Drop Yard

About Crete Drop Yard

Holland wraps itself around Hamilton Reservoir, and the camp roads that ring the water fill with green the moment the ice goes out. Crete Drop Yard mows through that stretch of the year, keeping lawns on the lake roads and the rises above the Quinebaug on a regular cut. Shoreline yards grow unevenly — soft and fast down near the water, thin and sandy up the bank — so the cutting height and the timing shift with the ground underfoot. Trimming and a clean sweep finish every visit, and the borders get attention before the summer crowd arrives. A small town, a short list of roads, and lawns that look looked-after right down to the waterline.
