Sparkster, welcome aboard. I can't address prices since it's been over a decade since we built ours, but I will say this. Any dollar you spend before moving one bucket of dirt may save you hundreds down the road. Things like an available clean water shed, soil composition, subcontractor referrals, etc. are very important.

And remember that building a dam and building a pond are two very different things. I'm still fighting issues that could have been avoided if I knew then what I know now. Ask all the questions you need, this forum is loaded with experience and great help.

And, Emory rocks. Pott's, Hootens, Sidekicks, LFT, what else could you ask for in a 1,000 person town.

Good luck with your project.
