Enhance your ranch with a lake or pond
By far the most popular ranch and farm landscape enhancement is a new lake or pond.
Some ranch owners want a trophy-catching fishing hotspot. Others want a gathering place for family and friends to swim and relax on a custom dock. Others are looking to enhance their property’s natural beauty with a pristine body of water.
Whatever your goal, we have you covered.
expert planning
To create the lake you want for recreational purposes, expert planning is key. A poorly designed or underdeveloped lake and shoreline can fail over time.
Not only does this destroy the aesthetic and recreational aspects of the lake, it results in extra maintenance expenses or even the need for an expensive makeover. A manmade lake is a significant investment and using professional services from the start will ensure the result maximizes your property’s recreational options and value.
Shoreline Consulting offers full-service, professional lake design and development service. From the initial planning phase, to creating a recreational lake or fishery in line with your objectives, to building the lake, stocking the lake and servicing the lake, Shoreline Consulting can make it all happen for you.
assessing your property
In partnership with Lochow Ranch Pond & Lake Management, our property development experts will work with you to determine the type and size of pond that will meet your needs.
Expert biologists will scientifically develop the correct ecosystem for the fish in a private fishery. Shorelines, docks, swimming areas and vegetation control are planned with your ultimate long-term goals in mind.
To create a private lake paradise that can be enjoyed for decades requires professionalism from beginning to end. This is not a project that you plan based on free internet advice.
A lake is central to turning your property into a legacy, a family treasure to be enjoyed by friends and family for generations.
Treat it as such from the beginning and create it with a proper professional design, construction and vegetation and fishery maintenance from Shoreline Consulting.
Let Shoreline Consulting handle the stress of obtaining permits, as well as the designing, building, or renovation of your lake or pond. Working with your needs in mind, we can add structures to your pond for fishing and other uses. These may include piers, stationary or floating docks, boat ramps and even beaches.
