The owner says that the first pond is preformed, raised and surrounded by a garden wall. The water is pumped by a Laguna pump. The second pond is a preformed turtle pond. The turtles grew into this pond in 2003. Its unique design offers a pleasant deviation from the ordinary style of pond. The fourth pond has a 16' bridge which is perfect for dangling one's legs into the pond for a refreshing dip on hot summer's day. Landscape lighting enhances the atmosphere of this mini paradise as you sit on the deck or brick patio and listen to the soothing sounds of the waterfalls.
