Natural Swimming Ponds

Bring the tranquility of nature to your backyard with a chemical-free, eco-friendly, natural swim pond that enhances your outdoor lifestyle and blends seamlessly with the landscape.
LET’S TALK

Why Choose a Natural Swim Pond?

Conventional pools and ponds rarely align with what nature intended. On the other hand, natural swimming ponds are more in sync with the natural world and its foundational beauty. With the perfect blend of wild allure, sustainability, and functionality, these ponds offer a serene place to cool off, unwind, and reconnect with nature.

Striking Aesthetic Appeal

Observe how a beautifully integrated swimming pond adds a stunning focal point to your landscape.

Sustainable & Low Maintenance

Experience true relaxation with natural ponds that are mostly self-sustaining and require minimal intervention.

Chemical-Free Cleanliness

Enjoy crystal-clear water naturally filtered through aquatic plants and beneficial bacteria—no harmful chemicals or chlorine.

Peaceful
Escape

Transform your yard into a calming retreat where every square foot soothes the senses and offers year-round enjoyment.

How Your Natural Swimming Pond Comes to Life

Creating a natural swimming pond is an immersive process—one that blends artistry with ecology to bring your dream retreat into reality. Here’s how we make it happen.

1. Finding the Perfect Spot

We start by walking your property and understanding the landscape. Where does the light hit in the morning? What can we see at sunset? We look at natural drainage, surrounding views, and how your pond can become a seamless part of your outdoor experience.

2. Designing with Intention

Your pond isn’t just a hole filled with water. It’s a living, breathing space. We tailor the design to how you plan to use it, whether for morning dips, quiet contemplation, or natural beauty. Every curve, plant, and stone is selected with purpose, reflecting your lifestyle and the environment.

We’ll also walk you through simple maintenance practices so your water sanctuary stays healthy and beautiful.

4. Reviving & Renovating

Already have a pond or traditional pool but it’s not quite the peaceful paradise you imagined? From murky water and outdated design to a tired layout, we can renovate your existing pond to restore its magic and surpass what you originally envisioned.

“After living at our home for a few years and not being able to enjoy the yard due to it always being wet, we finally started searching for a company to turn our swamp into a beautiful oasis. We contacted Tumber and scheduled a consultation. Mihal explained why our yard was always wet and what needed to be done before a single paver, stone, tree, or plant was placed. We are absolutely amazed with what you guys were able to achieve — thank you so much!”

“I had the front entrance way to my house redone by Tumber and I must say I am thrilled with the results. It compliments the work I did to my porch as well as adding great curb appeal.

Mihal and his crew did an amazing job of opening up the front entrance to my house. He and his staff were easy to work with and were very responsive to my concerns and ideas.

The crew showed up on time and on the days they said they would. They kept things neat and orderly making sure to tidy up each day. The garden staff did a great job in plant selection and placement.

Thank you to all involved in the project. You did yourselves proud. We couldn’t be happier.”
