HOME #13 Forrest & Peggy Abild, Easthampton, Ma In the backyard of this house you can sit on the patio to enjoy this pond. A 3yr old handmade 8' x 15' upper bio pond with a 5' waterfall going into a 15'x 20' Koi pond. Take a walk up to the top of the backyard to enjoy the view better. Lots of cattails, water hyacinths, and irises in this pond. And lots of landscaping of perennials and bushes surround the pond and house. Even a 100 yr old wild rose bush.

HOME #14 Peter & Monica Hanson, Southampton, Ma A beautiful landscaped yard. This water feature is 2yrs old and is a "pond less" pond that was professionally built. It features two 4' drop waterfalls that has 10,0000 gph waterfalls with a double drop into a 10' x 14' beach area. The water in the beach area is 2-3in deep, and makes an excellent wading area for small children. The sound of water splashing highlights a large in ground swimming pool with a patio Also on the other side of the yard is a garden area that has a gristmill stone that has water bubbling over from the center. Goshen stone walkway and retaining walls in this yard.
