“very back yard, down to the creek”
“simple as a dry creek bed might be all that's needed to slow the flow of water, reduce the chances of erosion and give the water time to seep into the soil.

“purchased a red brick ranch house and want to update the front. This style is very similar to my new house.”
“s was a 70's ranch style and we changed the front porch by extending the covered bridge 90 degrees from existing porch. They have significant drainage issues and the dry stream is to allow for some infiltration and to direct away from home.”
“stream beds and falls and outcrops as it flows through backyard which has about 25' of drop.”
“Like porch , creek ,and entry way”
“like the path along side of the plants along the river bed”
“Love the creek bed. What about a water feature in the front?”
