Backyard Ponds & Waterfalls
It's all about sights, sounds & serenity


backyard ponds Whether it's backyard ponds or a flowing backyard waterfall, or even if it's only a homemade fountain, there is nothing like the sound of water to mesmerize folks with the sights and sounds of your backyard landscape.

While many of us do not have the budget for the elaborate home and landscape in the picture to the right, the pond and waterfall is very much within anyone's budget.

Need some instruction, costs, resources and smart tips on pond construction? Then click here for step by step instructions.

There's just nothing more pleasing to the eyes, ears and spirit than a water themed backyard.

No other landscaping project can create the kind of ethereal paradise we long for more than the presence of water.

Have you mapped out the spot where you want your pond?

Have you decided whether you will have only a pond or do you want a trickling stream that meanders and gently spills into a pool brimming with lovely colorful fish?

Or maybe you want a full fledged oasis and you plan a dramatic backyard waterfalls that pour lusciously over rocks and into your beautifully landscaped pond.

Maybe a stone path like the one featured in the photo above that runs along side your pond. (That is a very stunning touch don't you think?)

Yes, backyard ponds are so magnificent that most of us seem to think that it is either outside our budget or our level of expertise...or both.

But in neither case is that true.

All you need is an idea, a plan, some determination and some great resources. And the links you find on this page should be a great aid to you in trying to create the water garden of your dreams.

If you've already been through the process and have created your own water oasis, why not share your pictures and experience with our visitors? Click here!

I can't recommend highly enough a site that has helped so many people with their water garden projects, www.natural waterfall.com

They offer a free ebook you see to the left, that is extremely helpful.

And if you click here you can watch a short video of a waterfall they created that's just gorgeous.

For step-by-step instructions they also offer a fantastic video tutorial if you'd rather watch than read (like me!)
