Ponds & Watergardens

Landscape with water and make a statement unparalleled by any other landscape feature. Splashing, bubbling, glistening, rippling — water touches all of our senses.

Nothing changes how a backyard feels like water. We've been designing and building ponds, streams, and waterfalls from Woodburn up to Lake Oswego and Newberg over to Oregon City for thirty years — from a bubbling rock by the front door to long winding streams and koi ponds you can lose an afternoon beside.

Every feature is shaped to its space and runs on natural biological filtration, so the water stays clean and healthy the natural way — and with less upkeep than the lawn it replaced.

What we build:

  • Koi ponds
  • Watergardens
  • Pondless waterfalls
  • Streams & cascades
  • Negative edges
  • Wetland filters
  • Bubbler rocks
  • Urn & basin fountains
  • Skimmers
  • Biofalls

Why a water feature?

  • Clean, healthy water — a natural touch with reduced inputs
  • Low maintenance — less upkeep than a lawn
  • User friendly — we set it up and show you the ropes
  • Relaxing and soothing — a backyard paradise
  • Ideal for fish — with energy-saving pumps
  • An investment with fabulous returns

Wondering what your pond holds? Our free pond volume calculator gives you gallons in seconds — the number that matters for dosing treatments right and sizing a pump. And if you're picturing where a new feature could go, our article on locating a water feature in the right spot shows how we think it through.

"Thank you for a fantastic job — the water feature is something I have always wanted and you have made my dream come true! During this time when the news is so often terrible, it is a pleasure to know I can enjoy something so beautiful in my own yard. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!"
