added by Erin Lang Norris to Out in the Yard: 10 Private Retreats
Woodland retreat or poolside oasis? Oh, what the heck, let's just have both. It would be difficult to leave a yard that feels as vacation-esque as this one!
Tip: If you long for a water feature in your yard but can't have a pool or pond, a fountain may be an ideal solution. See tips on constructing your own here.

How original and pretty. Looks like the pool will need cleaning every 10 minutes, but so pretty it is worth it. A great spot to sit in and feel calm and centered.
