Benefits of Landscape Water Features:

  1. Increased Property Value: Water features are visually stunning and add elegance to your home, making it more attractive to future buyers.
  2. Relaxing Ambiance: The sound of flowing water is a natural stress reliever, creating a calming effect perfect for unwinding after a long day.
  3. Eco-Friendly Options: Many water features are designed with sustainability in mind, like natural filtration systems that promote healthy ecosystems.
  4. Low Maintenance: Modern designs require minimal upkeep, allowing you more time to enjoy your landscape.
  5. Attracts Wildlife: Birds, butterflies, and other wildlife are naturally drawn to water sources, enhancing the natural beauty of your yard.

Types of Water Features for Your Colorado Springs Landscape

Choose from a variety of water features that suit your vision and budget:

  • Streams: Provides a continuous flow of water that’s both soothing and visually appealing.
  • Fountains: Available in many designs, from bubbling rocks to elegant tiered fountains, perfect for any sized space.
  • Pondless Waterfalls: Great for smaller yards, these features create the sound and look of a waterfall without the need for a full pond.

6 Unique Water Feature Design Ideas

1. Multi-Tiered Waterfall with Integrated Lighting

A grand, multi-tiered waterfall creates a stunning visual impact and an immersive soundscape. Adding LED lighting within the tiers enhances the feature’s beauty at night, offering an elegant ambiance that transforms any yard into a luxurious retreat.

2. Pondless Waterfall with Boulder Accents

For clients seeking the sound of a waterfall without the upkeep of a pond, a pondless waterfall is the perfect solution. With large boulder accents and natural plantings, this low-maintenance option looks stunning while offering the soothing sounds of cascading water.

3. Interactive Splash Pad with Integrated Fountains

A splash pad isn’t just for public parks! This feature includes small water jets that are flush with the ground and can be customized with programmable fountains for a fun, interactive experience. It’s especially appealing for families with children and adds a playful, high-tech twist to the yard.

4. Meditative Zen Garden Stream with Stone Pathways

A Japanese-inspired Zen garden with a tranquil, meandering stream lined by smooth stones and bamboo creates a peaceful retreat. Clients can enhance the garden with a stone pathway and bridge, providing a space for meditation and relaxation while adding an artistic and exotic touch to the yard.

5. Natural Rock Grotto with Cascading Waterfall

A grotto with a waterfall that cascades over natural rock formations creates a private, secluded escape. Clients can even add seating within the grotto or include a hidden hot tub spa for a luxurious twist. This high-value feature brings a sense of adventure and intrigue to any landscape.

6. Outdoor Shower and Water Wall Combo

An outdoor shower paired with a decorative water wall adds a spa-like feel to the yard. This unique feature is perfect for clients with pools or beach properties, offering both functionality and style. Incorporating natural stone and tropical plantings can create a private, resort-style sanctuary.

Let’s Make Things Happen

We are a family-owned, family-run landscaping business here in Colorado Springs. We truly love all of the gorgeous landscapes that Colorado has to offer, and it is one of the many reasons why my wife and I moved here from the Mid-West. We help provide homeowners, whether grown locals or new to town, with inviting backyards that are a little slice of heaven in their vision.

“From the very beginning Sam was very professional and communicative. We had him install turf, burms, trees/shrubs and a huge gorgeous gas fire pit seating area. We couldn’t be more happy for how the project turned out. He transformed our backyard into an entertainers dream. I highly recommend using Sam. Very competitive pricing, high quality work and excellent communication.“

Our Landscaping Testimonials

Alpine Landscaping literally gave us our dream backyard! Every part of this process was a breeze when we worked with Sam, the owner of Alpine Landscaping. His prices were not only fair, he hit the mark on his estimates, making financial planning for this project easy. We had an extremely sloped backyard, but the retaining wall has now given us a large area where we can sit under our gazebo and enjoy the night, while our dog runs around on the artificial turf. We worked with Sam to plant 6 trees, tons of plants and shrubs, and he ran drip irrigation through the entire yard to keep everything healthy and alive. We have zero complaints about Alpine Landscaping and we plan to use their services to redo parts of our front yard in the near future!

Samuel Schreier

The owner, Sam, is very honest and professional. The work done reflected the goal for precision, beauty, and excellence.

Sharon Harter

First off, anyone who is looking to work with a professional landscaping company, Alpine Landscaping is amazing!! From the start and all the way till the jobs were done, the owner and his crew exceeded what my wife and I expected to be done. Our retaining walls and stone steps look amazing! We plan on using Alpine for all of our future landscaping needs!

David Willhite

My husband, friends, and my three month old daughter were left stranded in an Airbnb here in Woodland Park after a huge snowstorm. We gave Sam a call on a Sunday afternoon (his day off) and he was there to help us within 20 minutes. Both he and his wife brought shovels ready to help us dig our way out. We cannot thank him enough for saving us! They’re good people!

Taylor Larsen

Easily, the best landscaping company we’ve ever worked with! Like many who live in Colorado, we enjoy the outdoors, so we asked for a landscape design that helped us replicate a mountain-like setting at our home. From the beginning, Sam instinctively knew how to bring this vision to fruition, creating a digital rendering for our approval (we made no changes as it perfectly captured what we were trying to achieve). Overall, we’re blown away by our great experience with Alpine Landscaping and the tremendous product they delivered.
