Outdoor water features are always an excellent appealing addition to your front yard or backyard. No matter the location, it will be your little shrine of peace and quiet. A place where you can meditate, drink your tea and enjoy with all of your senses. You can already feel the refreshing scent of water floating in the air, don’t you?
Water is a universal symbol of abundance, wisdom, and power. Also, the sound of water flowing can help calm your mind and prepare you for some meditation. What is great about water features is that they are also extremely versatile.
You can play with this element of nature in many ways. There are also options on sizing to find the perfect fit in your front or backyard. So start imagining your ideal place for an outdoor water feature. We can help your inspiration flow with our ideas.
We had a tough time picking which one is our favorite, but we bet you will manage to find something interesting and in line with your budget very quickly. We’ve chosen some which have a timeless vibe and some original ideas to inspire you.
A natural pond with clear, turquoise water, glistening in the sun with water lilies, natural stones, and amazing greenery… can you imagine yourself sitting beside it every day and drinking tea while dragonflies are flying around? It will be your little oasis of nature where you will get your rest after your daily dose of stress at work.
A koi pond is also a great idea. Koi’s fish look so unique and colorful. They will give you that oriental vibe to your backyard. Add a rustic wooden bridge across the pond, and you will be amazed at how great your backyard looks.
What do you need to set your very own little pond? You will need to do some excavating first and then set the liner. The decorating is up to you! It doesn’t require many resources, and it will attract local wildlife. It is also exquisite and not hard to maintain. You should consider this water feature if you are an avid nature lover.
Imagine a micro waterfall for your backyard. Your own little Niagara falls. They are timeless in so many ways. They provide soothing sounds, and they also look beautiful. Their design is very versatile. You can combine a small waterfall with other water features such as fiberglass pools and ponds.
It can be your peaceful oasis or your spa corner. Your visitors will simply adore this, and it would be a perfect focal point in your backyard. On hot summer nights, you can arrange your very own backyard cocktail party, and you will be sure that your waterfall will get all the spotlight. When we mentioned spotlight – it is great to add some led lights to your waterfall for better effect and completely different dimensions.
You can choose various materials to make your waterfall – fiberglass, natural stones, or sculpted concrete. The shape and size of your waterfall depend on your yard topography, but you can find a great corner to which you can give a tropical twist.
And now something original. No, we are not talking about a hot tub. Imagine taking a bubble bath with only the stars in the sky above you. It is not complicated to do – you just need some plumbing work and a nice bathtub. Your perfect outdoor spa day awaits! You can also have an outdoor shower. A shower that will remind you of the rain in the rainforest.
To create an impressive and Amazon-like atmosphere, add plants around you. The bigger the leaves, the better. To ensure privacy, you can add a bamboo fence. Decorate with volcanic rocks. Leave all your worries behind and enjoy your own personal spa in the privacy of your own yard.
Rain curtains can also be a welcome addition – it is simple, but it can be a very luxurious addition to your home.
Water walls are similar to rain curtains and great if you are limited with your outdoor space. It is luxurious, and it has a calming effect.
An all-time classic. They are a universal symbol of luxury, and everyone dreams of having their own swimming pool in their backyard. Swimming pools were considered expensive when we look back when it comes to both installation and maintenance. Fortunately, things have changed now, and you can find a perfect solution for your backyard.
You can combine all the water elements from above or stick just to one. In any case, you will be amazed how water can transform spaces and just how much inner peace you will feel.
Water features for your yard are not universally desired, and people often look at the price of maintenance. We provided some low-maintenance solutions that will not break the bank so you can enjoy your pool every day. If you find someone like-minded, they will be pleased to buy a secluded tropical paradise hiding in the backyard.
