Back Side of Pond

[Big Lou]

Hello friends,
Our yard slopes so the rear of our pond is built up above grade. The ponds backside is not visable when looking from our yard but now that the property boundary fence is no longer there the unadorned backside is clealy seen by one neighbor. Distance between the pond an the property line is very limited.

Do any of you have a pond end or side similar to what I have described? If so what did you do to make the built up area attractive?

Facing it with stone might give them a better view

Can you show us some pix of it so we can get a better idea. Can't you just plant something around it or let something climb up it or down it?

Agree with the Dr. build it up with stone.

Is it just dirt now or what?

Here is a pic of my bog which is built up with stone

We just discussed each of your suggestions. Thanks. Photos will not help since excess liner draps over the back. Be back later with more information. Again, thank you.

Well just take one of your cool photo's and enlarge it and encase it w/ protection from the weather and set it up behind there and let them enjoy. You could do a different one for each season, make it changeable! You will be the talk of the hood Lou :razz:

Just build a simple lattice screen behind your pond and plant some vines to grow on it. It will improve the view from your side and your neighbor's.
