Enchanted Gardens

Everything written about Enchanted Gardens at the Coolidge Street address in Athol is about walking into a shop, not hiring a crew. Seven Google reviews run from 2022 to 2025, and they describe the same thing each time: a small storefront stocked with crystals, stones, minerals and fossils, with items clearly marked and prices people called fair. A 2022 visitor liked being able to browse the mineral collection without the crowds of a gem-and-mineral show. Reviewers in 2024 and 2025 kept returning to the owner — knowledgeable, helpful, easy to deal with — and more than one said they had been back several times. Google shows 4.8 stars across 10 ratings. That is a retail record, not a contracting one. No customer here describes garden design, planting, hardscape or any other outdoor job, so there is nothing to weigh as landscaping work and no rating is given. Before treating this listing as a landscaping contractor, confirm directly with the business what work it actually performs at this address — and note that a separate landscape design-build firm trading under the same name appears elsewhere in Massachusetts.
