Pulled from facebook
quote:
This one in the picture is 60x100
Beach entry to 8ft deep
The Beach entry is at 180° around the pond
Very hard to do that but we can
It has multiple pumps and filters
This will be determined on the size you want as far as equipment goes
The gazebo over the water is 16 x 30
The gazebo has 20 foot pilings drove into the earth to hold it out of the water
All treated lumber
Equipment is behind gazebo
It has scammers main drains returns the detail is in the plumbing specially main drains
It is line with a special liner to hold a sand in place.
The whole pond is sand
Real Beach Sand
You will not have to worry about snakes or other animals because of the chemicals that we use
The ponds or specially designed by myself
2 Piling drove in the center of the pond with returns and umbrellas in them with benches
You could not just dig a hole and put a liner with sand it will never be clean it will never function properly trust me I specialize in this type of work
Price we very depending on project size and location
20k and up
This one in the picture is 70k pond and gazebo

You've never swam in a pond before? All this is is a pool with a sandy bottom. Plenty of pools have sand in them, hell there's some pool filters that literally use sand to filter. So if this is properly done, it can work very easily.
Given that, to do this properly would be expensive. Also, you would certainly want better landscaping and an edge around the sides so that a heavy rain wouldn't just wash right into this.

Eric: "Yes, it's all sand. It's 180 degree beach entry, so you can walk in from all sides."
Maybe he was referencing the vertical axis, you know, as opposed to a salt dome?

Perfect for those people who love to hear their wives complain about tracking sand into the house.

Eric: "I mean, a nice house is going to cost you 300 grand. Where a trailer like this, you can do a 20X40 (without the gazebo) for $20,000."

Jude: Will the water stay blue?
Eric: "Yes, it is filtered and chlorinated. There's a special dye that gives it its color. If you didn't have that dye, it would just be crystal clear and you could see all the way to the bottom."
Think i'd rather it be crystal clear.

Let's see how it goes after some time
The pool from Google Maps
Edit: I'm really surprised how many nice pools there are in Maurepas
