Get prepared for sticker shock but someone on this forum told me when I am sitting on that dock with friends and family catching fish and drinking a cold beverage while watching a beautiful sunset and seeing the smiles on your kids and grandkids face....you NEVER one time think about how much it costs to dig the pond!!! They were right!!! Good luck with your project.


I want to go to 1.5 or 2, that is my goal but I don't know what that is going to cost. I have never looked into it before this week. My goal would be to have that size range if at all possible.
