Summer runs short and bright along Mullett Lake, and the grass knows it — a few hard weeks of growing between a late thaw and the first cold nights coming off the water. 231 Property Maintenance mows through that rush, keeping cottage lots and year-round yards cut, trimmed and swept while the light holds long into the evening.
