While it might seem logical to place a pond in a low-lying area to capture runoff water, it can cause problems with excess water runoff and nutrient pollution.

Ideally, you should choose a location that provides some natural shelter from wind and sun exposure and is not directly in the path of runoff water from higher ground.

Placing the pond near your home can provide the added benefit of allowing you to enjoy the view and sound of the water from your window or outdoor living space.

Ultimately, the best location for your pond will depend on the specific characteristics of your yard, including factors such as drainage patterns, soil type, and existing vegetation. You may prefer to consult with Acorn Ponds & Waterfalls to help you choose the best location and design for your pond.
