RKO Lawn Service is a father-and-son lawn care company based in Orleans, on the Lower Cape, founded in 2000 by Zack Dixon and his father and self-described as family-owned with 26 years in business. The company covers Chatham, Orleans, Eastham, Wellfleet, Truro, Provincetown, Brewster, and Harwich, offering mowing, spring and fall cleanup, aeration, dethatching, and organic fertilizing, alongside a companion natural cedar-oil tick and mosquito treatment line branded RKO Control.
Customers who have hired RKO consistently praise the routine maintenance and seasonal work. Reviewers describe specific jobs -- a spring cleanup at a reasonable price, seven yards of mulch spread across a multi-garden property, pruning along footpaths, and reliable mowing every other week without needing to be asked -- and several name Zack directly. More than one reviewer describes years or decades of ongoing service, including a seasonal homeowner who has relied on Zack, and before him his father, to look after a summer property while they're away. Reviewers also cite fast turnaround, with same-day site visits and same-evening quotes on new jobs.
The review record is uniformly strong: 17 reviews across Google, Angi, and HomeAdvisor run 5 stars with no negative or mixed comments among them, and Google separately shows a 5-star average from 13 ratings. Worth noting before booking: the Angi and HomeAdvisor profiles are byte-identical mirrors of each other -- the same four reviews and business description appear on both, so they don't add independent confirmation beyond what either shows on its own; the underlying picture still rests on Google's larger, separate pool plus those four matching reviews.
RKO is a solid pick for Lower Cape homeowners who want routine mowing and seasonal lawn care handled by the same small, family-run crew over multiple years, plus a natural option for tick and mosquito control. Worth confirming directly: current scheduling availability and pricing for your property's size and season.
