Anthropic,
All valid points that we have taken into consideration. We have narrowed down our search results right now to East Texas. I don't plan to dig a well to provide water for the pond. I will need to dig a well to provide water for the house that we build. Anyone out there have a well dug in the last 12 months in Eastern Texas? I'm curious to know average depth and average cost. I would assume that drilling itself would be between 15 and 30 bucks a foot for Eastern Texas type terrain. Right now I have two properties in my crosshairs. Both in Lamar County. Thank you all for the warm greeting and the Intel.

Great, you are way ahead of me! Visibility to the public was a serious consideration in my case, particularly since I'm not on site all the time. Cormorants and otters aren't the only poachers we have to look out for!
