Sorry to hear your soil wont hold water, but there's no reason why you can't put in an ornamental pond. My first ponds were small gold fish ponds that I really enjoyed. Just decide what you can afford for the biggest liner possible. Like all ponds, you can never make it too big!!! hahaha

Just to have a place to sit and hear water moving is about the most relaxing thing there is. Add a few gold fish to it, some nice plants and you have your own piece of pradise.

Honestly, my goldfish ponds in previous homes was really as nice, if not nicer then the ponds I have today. In fact, my wife and I are seriously considering putting in another goldfish pond because we miss not having one!!!!

It's not how many ideas you have, but how many you make happen.

3/4 and 4 acre ponds.
