Fountains and Bubbling Rocks for Impact

Add an elegant focal point to your Midland garden with a custom fountain or bubbling rock feature. These low-maintenance water features use recirculating systems that conserve water and require minimal upkeep, perfect for busy Penetanguishene homeowners and cottage properties. We source local boulders and natural stone to create features that blend with the Precambrian Shield landscape of Georgian Bay.

Our custom waterfalls and streams are designed to look as though nature created them, using natural stone and native plantings that complement the Georgian Bay environment.

Water Features Integrated with Your Landscape

A water feature is most stunning when it is part of a complete landscape design. We integrate waterfalls, ponds, and fountains with patios, retaining walls, native plantings, and landscape lighting to create cohesive outdoor environments.

Add a Water Feature to Your Midland Yard

Bring the Sound of Water to Your Simcoe County Landscape

Georgian Bay is defined by water, and the best landscapes in the Midland and Penetanguishene area bring that element into the garden. At Forty Five Scapes, we design and install custom water features that range from naturalistic waterfalls and streams to contemporary fountains and reflecting pools. Every installation is engineered for the Simcoe County climate and designed to complement the natural beauty of the Georgian Bay region.

Water Feature Options for Every Property

We offer a complete range of water features to suit properties throughout Midland, Penetanguishene, Tiny Township, and Tay Township:

  • Pondless waterfalls that provide the sight and sound of moving water with minimal maintenance
  • Natural ponds with aquatic plants, fish, and stone edges that blend with the Georgian Bay landscape
  • Bubbling rock features using local boulders and natural stone
  • Custom fountains from rustic to contemporary styles
  • Stream beds that meander through garden areas with natural stone channels
  • Reflecting pools that capture the Georgian Bay sky

Designed for the Central Ontario Climate

Water features in Simcoe County must be designed with winterization in mind. Our installations include properly sized pumps, check valves, and plumbing that can be easily drained or winterized for the cold months. We position features to avoid frost heave damage and use construction techniques that account for the four-foot-plus frost depth in the Midland area. Recirculating systems are energy-efficient and designed for the variable water conditions found across Simcoe County properties.

Naturalistic Design for Georgian Bay

The landscapes around Midland and Penetanguishene feature Precambrian Shield rock, mature mixed forests, and native plantings that provide perfect inspiration for naturalistic water features. We use local stone, native aquatic and marginal plants, and natural construction techniques that make our waterfalls and streams look as though they have always been part of the landscape. This approach is especially popular on cottage properties and waterfront lots where the goal is to enhance rather than compete with the natural environment.

Lighting Your Water Feature

Water features come alive at night with proper landscape lighting and garden lighting. Underwater LED lights create a mesmerizing glow, while perimeter lighting highlights the stone and plantings that surround your feature. We design lighting as an integral part of every water feature installation so your investment looks stunning from morning to midnight.

Integration with Your Complete Landscape

Water features work best as part of a holistic landscape design. We coordinate water feature placement with hardscaping, retaining walls, planting plans, and outdoor living areas. Our 3D design process lets you see exactly how your water feature integrates with your Midland or Penetanguishene property before construction begins.
