Create your own slice of paradise, a personal oasis, right in your backyard. From mild to wild, small reflecting pools to huge koi ponds, to low maintenance recreation ponds, we can build your dream. Ponds can add a peaceful, tranquil, and living focal point to your garden while providing a resource for local birds, frogs, and other local wildlife. Ponds are also perfect for homeowners who wish to add another layer of water-loving plants to their existing landscape.
Not only are our ponds fish and plant safe, they require no harsh chemicals. Get rid of the chlorine or saltwater you need for an artificial pool. Stop worrying about having to “shock” your water before every swim season. Our ponds are complete ecosystems that work with nature instead of against nature. Enhance your landscape by going beyond simple trees, shrubs, and flowers: open up a whole new world of possibilities by adding in beautiful lotus water lilies, sweet flag, lily pads, and broadleaf arrowhead. Your pond can even create a microclimate and allow you to grow plants that might normally need warmer weather in the winter months.
But let’s talk about cost for a moment. Ponds are one of the most expensive landscaping options that Desiree Gardens offers, that much is true. But compare the cost of a natural pond to that of an in-ground pool of the same size. Now consider the maintenance and upkeep. Most pool owners need a weekly or biweekly service simply to clean the pool and keep the chemicals and pH balance correct. Did you know that, for the cost of an in-ground pool installation, you can get a natural ecosystem ponds installed for about the same price, complete with landscaping? Most prices for in-ground pools only include the pool itself. Then you can add on decking, rock work, pavers, and any landscaping.
What if you could get all of that from a natural ecosystem pond from Desiree Gardens for the same price as just the pool?
Natural ponds, even swim ponds or recreational ponds by Desiree Gardens are designed to use only fresh water, with no harsh chemicals. Our installations use tools provided by nature to create and maintain a pond with clear water, with advanced debris management that doesn’t require a robotic or pump powered pool cleaner. Just imagine how much money you can save in weekly maintenance fees and energy savings alone.
But that’s not all. With a pond from Desiree Gardens, you no longer have to worry about “shutting down” your pool for the winter, or opening it up in the spring and “shocking” the water with expensive and harsh chemicals. Our ponds are designed to work year round using zero harsh chemicals, and with a minimum of maintenance. Leaves, wind blown seeds and debris are handled much more efficiently than a standard pool skimmer, and most designs include fantastic waterfalls that not only help with water flow and oxygenation but provide yet more beauty to an already fantastic pond and garden.
Even when you’re not using a pond from Desiree Gardens as a swim or recreational pond, it is still there to provide an absolutly gorgeous addition to your yard. Whether you have it stocked with koi, gold fish, bass and crappie, or nothing at all, you can still have a a sanctuary that is all your own where you relax and enjoy your personal time away from the hustle and bustle of daily life.
