HOW MUCH does a RECREATION POND COST?? Swimming in a Natural Pool

A question I ALWAYS get, "How much does this cost?" Today, we are looking at Recreation Ponds, Swim Ponds, Natural Pools and talking about how much they cost. Also, we'll go through what it's like to live with and take care of one of these recreation ponds with our good friend, Alan Decker from Decker's Pondscapes in Pattersonville, NY

$165k...”a little more than a traditional swimming pool.” Love this pond, I mean really love it...but damn that’s more than a little!

[zackjoubert]

Yeah this video taught me that I need to personally do this.

[JB-]

This video should be more about finding a new career path than anything else.

Who knew building ponds could make you rich?

[Diggz]

Well, that's definitely out of my price range. Guess I'll stick with the garden hose running down a kids slide into a baby pool

[drea]

So in other words you can’t have something like this unless you’re mega rich....got it👌😑

[saviorprinceproductions]

I thought the price might be the incentive to convince someone to choose this over a regular unground...no one in their right mind would do this. I can buy a whole other house for 165k

“How much does it cost?”
“250-275k”
No big deal 😳

[TheDerekpreston]

Get out of here 200k for a pond.. you guys do great work but wow, I need to change my construction path.

[Beck-Stein]

Nicest swim pond ever. It’s such a natural looking blend to match their landscape. Awesome.

[brianlam]

This bond mingles perfectly with the surrounding environment. Almost looks like it's natural

The 20 by 40 swim pond is extraordinary, so much nicer and natural than a traditional chlorine pool, no need to shower off the chemicals! Love that it looks like its been there forever

[jenniferelkins]

So now we just need plans and equipment lists and everything so all the ambitious DIYers can do this themselves. Can you imagine how good these would be for the environment if they started popping up everywhere? You'd be doing a public service really.

[DevengerKott]

That is gorgeous. This is definitely how the 1% lives, no doubt...but it's still quite nice.

Absolutely love this whole yard. On the topic of water features.. I put a beautiful 5 tier cascading water feature right under my bedroom window once. Boy was it part of our lives. I mean it was right in there.. It nearly drove us insane. I strongly recommend getting a pond pump and some tubs and moving some water around at night, to get an idea of how much waterfall noise you want in your life.

[colemorrison]

This is incredible! I am now adding this on my bucket list for my future property. 😎

[PookieWaters]

We’ve been talking about converting our traditional swimming pool into something similar. This video gives me great incentive! Beautiful and seems worth it!

[danielwindley]

Awesome video. Great idea explaining all the in’s and out’s of a rec pond especially the cost, great install Alan

[doctorstainy]

This pond looks so nice and natural. My dream pool is kinda like this, but mine would sit next to a cliff and have tree branches hanging over so you could jump and swing into it, and also deep enough for high dives, might be cheaper get a house next to a lake or something at that point, but having your own pool is just epic.

STUNNING. Thanks for sharing your creativity and expertise online here, I love seeing all the different ideas for swimming pools and garden landscaping. Especially enjoying this seeing as the UK is in the middle of a freakishly long heatwave right now.

[vegahunter]

Thanks for this video! I've become fairly proficient using an excavator to build mtb trails the past two years and I've become obsessesed with idea of putting natural ponds on my property.
