Your Property Should Be Something You Can Enjoy — Not Something You Have to Worry About
Owning a home in the Poconos comes with incredible surroundings. It can also come with steep slopes, water runoff, erosion, aging retaining walls and outdoor areas that were never designed to work with the property.
Maybe you’ve purchased the perfect lake house — but there’s nowhere to comfortably gather outside.
Maybe a hillside is beginning to move.
Maybe an old retaining wall is failing, drainage is damaging the property or the shoreline needs attention.
Or maybe the landscape simply doesn’t live up to the home you fell in love with.
These aren’t problems that should be solved with a quick cosmetic fix.
Poorly planned landscape construction can become an expensive problem.
Moonlighting Landscape & Design looks at the property as a whole — the terrain, drainage, structures, materials and the way you want to use the space — before recommending a solution.
The result is an outdoor environment that feels like it belongs there.

Built Around the Land. Designed for the Way You Live.
Pocono properties aren’t flat suburban lots — and we don’t treat them like they are.
Our team has decades of experience working with mountain terrain, lakefront properties, complex elevations, drainage challenges and structural landscape construction. When necessary, we also coordinate with engineers, architects and other professionals to ensure the solution is appropriate for the property.
We believe good landscape design should accomplish two things:
Protect the property.
Construction should be thoughtfully designed, properly built and made from quality materials that will stand up to the environment.
Enhance the property.
Walls, patios, plantings and outdoor living areas should work with the existing landscape rather than feeling imposed upon it.
Our goal is simple: create landscapes that look as though they’ve been there for 100 years, and are built to be there for the next 100.

A Better Way to Approach Complex Landscape Projects
Large landscape projects require more than a good idea. They require a clear plan.
1. Start With a Conversation
Call us and tell us about your property, what you’re experiencing and what you’d like to accomplish.
2. Walk the Property
We’ll visit the site, evaluate the existing landscape and discuss the opportunities, challenges and recommended direction.
3. Develop the Right Solution
Once the project scope is established, we’ll move through design, planning and contracting so everyone understands what is being built and why.
4. Build It Right
Our experienced crew completes the work using high-quality materials, proven construction practices and a clear project plan.
No shortcuts. No fighting the land just to force a design. No beautiful solution that creates a structural problem somewhere else.
Landscape Construction You Can Trust
Moonlighting Landscape & Design is a locally owned landscape construction company led by Craig Harley and backed by an experienced team of landscape professionals.
For more than 25 years, we’ve completed hundreds of projects throughout the Poconos, from complete outdoor living spaces to highly specialized construction on lakefronts, hillsides and challenging terrain.
Our approach is boutique by design.
You’ll receive thoughtful recommendations, clear communication and experienced guidance throughout the project. We don’t believe in recommending work simply because it can be done. If a design isn’t appropriate for the property, we’ll tell you — and help you find a better solution.
We don’t cut corners on construction, materials or design.
Because when you’re investing in your home, it shouldn’t just look beautiful when the project is finished. It should still be beautiful decades from now.
