Small but Stunning Ecosystem Pond in South Austin, TX
We recently wrapped up a truly meaningful project—a compact ecosystem pond in South Austin that’s full of heart. Designed to be both beautiful and functional, this pond includes a built-in fish cave, thoughtful plantings, and a layout that makes the most of a smaller footprint.
But what made this build so special was the chance to honor the past. Our client asked us to incorporate stones from her late father’s 37-year-old DIY pond. We took great care to preserve and place them with intention, and the result is something we’re incredibly proud of.
Here’s what she had to say:
“I went to work, came home, and found the pond beyond my wildest dreams AND a fish cave of my fish’s dreams I’m sure! I’m still speechless… I couldn’t be happier or more grateful. Thank you Eric & Ana & crew! They should win an award or something!”
Big or small, every pond tells a story—and this one will be remembered for a long time.
