And I also regret that I didn’t name off all the people individually who gave their heart and soul helping me build this project. There were so many friends along the way, but Aaron Chico is one guy who put a lot of blood sweat and tears into that project with me and his name should not be left out of the mix. He has worked with me on Many projects along the way. Also, Lindsay’s siblings , Aaron and April. Kris Feldner made it out for a few days. I’m sure I’m forgetting someone but it’s only in the moment. I appreciate what they brought each and everyone of them :-)

[@bluelotuswaterscapesdesign154]

Love you John! Thank you for bringing me into your dream build. I feel extremely honored to have been a part of that project. I enjoyed every second of it. I’m looking forward to the next one that will come from people viewing this!!!

[@danielwindley7261]

Simply stunning John G, you the team and your guest artists have smashed it. Great work as always

[@shangrilahomestead9930]

It’s absolutely the most amazing Aquascape project ever! John G really created a masterpiece!😊

[@Gigi-fv9ky]

I would request a second look at this one. This video is great and has a lot of information for pond builders, but as someone who has zero ability to build this, I would like to just see more footage of the pond itself and swimming in it, instead of the technical details. Again, I am certain those are awesome for that audience so keep it up, I just want the eye candy, lol. I also will never have a million dollars to build anything so that’s another reason I just want to experience the beauty of it. 😊

[@gianfrancocattina1014]

Amazing work

[@VPershing]

John, you really outdid yourself with this project. What a magnificent journey you've been on from your early builds to this pinnacle. No doubt you'll continue to lead the way for us pond builders. High 5's to your family for their great efforts building and supporting your vision, and to your team and allies.

[@KoiAddiction]

I really don’t think I could’ve done it without all of their help. And they definitely show their true colors putting up with me through my psychosis and my horrible Pond addiction😂

[@VPershing]

Addiction may well be a prerequisite for Mastery. You do it because you have to, it's just who you are.@@KoiAddiction

[@cherylcooper2838]

Spectacular all around!

[@arnoldmayii3563]

This is super awesome amazing!!

[@KoiAddiction]

Thanks so much, we just really appreciate everyone that has helped us get to this point and now we appreciate you spending time and sharing our story with us😊

[@roseyrose9467]

Just Phenomenal. Worth all the time it took to Build it. I especially love 💕 the Grotto

[@christinawyckoff2164]

Love the cave awesome job

[@bernardochavis4230]

this is amazing omg

[@GregWittstockThePondGuy]

It's top-notch!💯

[@TheScrubDesigns]

Next level stuff right there baby

[@fraservalleychris2958]

Wow! I have watched John's videos on this project from the beginning. What an amazing build! So much love and heart put into this. Love, love, love this water feature!

[@Sir_price]

What an amazing project. And you feel so relaxed and at peace talking about it. How awesome it must feel to have built such a creation representing the sum of great passion! Cheers from Belgium !

[@deondutoit6922]

Amazing

[@PaineTrain]

Yes sir ⚒️ amazing

[@leyley1970]

This is amazing!! dang would love to have something like this in my huge backyard..

[@enbrij]

Wow amazing!! That grotto is unbelievable!! Wow Wow WOW!!

[@bearcatkoi]

John Adams you are a genius I watched all your videos on the building of this pond and it is truly amazing, I live in the UK, and what I would give to have the land and money to create something like this. This is what dreams are made of God bless you and your family (and by the way I watch all of your videos Greg they are fantastic) Hopefully going to build a pond this year but nothing on the scale of this.

[@KoiAddiction]

Well, I hope to be back over to MJ’s place in the UK in a couple months. He’s having an event there and I plan to attend :-) I’ll see you if you’re there!

[@haggardfish8779]

WOW... Incredible work and great story behind the project!!!

[@KoiAddiction]

Thanks so much it was a great journey😂 now I’m planning on tearing down the wall and making the pond bigger. Can’t imagine what it would’ve cost me if I would’ve had a NASCAR addiction…

[@KoiAddiction]

Thanks for spending time with the Adams family and sharing our journey😊

[@mattgulisano7428]

So John it looks like you have set the bar up several more notches. Spectacular

[@GregWittstockThePondGuy]

He went above and beyond!

[@derekdrezek-kg4vx]

I've watched a good number of John's videos ( modern design aquascaping ) and they are all great at teaching and showing the end product of his teaching and builds. I'm hoping to take my wife to the smoky mountains at some point soon. Give John some advance notice, and hopefully combine that trip with a stop at The Oasis. I gotta have a front row seat at that feature for at least a few minutes. It is gorgeous. The surrounding landscape, with the rolling hills looks beautiful too.

[@petersvan7880]

Now that's really something! And that fantastic grotto: wow :)

[@Nrsyd]

swimming with koi

[@shalakabooyaka1480]

What a ridiculously cool looking water feature! Great job to that team.

[@mattbrown4895]

Incredible work John and team! Absolutely amazing! Looking forward to seeing what you create next!

[@bradparker649]

Jon and the family are so amazing. Ive watched every video he's released and you can feel his heart and soul in everyone. Just amazing

[@illianalopez3155]

Love the work u all do! Got an existing pond in my backyard & it needs ur loving!!!

[@CornusFlorida425]

Perfect grotto for a live in hermit like the old days!

[@mahgoubalfaqih8472]

that water leveling work is amazing

[@hikeaphoto746]

I have to mention you have one of the best next to home, not a thing wrong with that. I love the design and going under water to cave, I felt it would have been a blast. I like the flowers and the falls, way cool. It does look great, thanks!

[@Whips_World]

Love that guy! I always feel like he's telling you exactly what he thinks and what he feels. I never feel like what he's saying is a pitch to sell me something. I love that he loves the natural look, hence the motto, "building ponds out of natural wood and stone.". I know most if not all your CACs can say the same, but with John, it just feels real, whereas it comes off like a salesman with some of the others. I can tell you this, John and / or his team will be building me a pond and stream when we finally retire and move to our property in Tennessee. I've already informed my better half. This is going to happen, even if she has to go back into the workforce to make it so 😂

[@KoiAddiction]

He loves you too :-)

[@michaelmanese2228]

Wow⁉️😊❤️❤️❤️

[@lindaleslie5634]

I’ve enjoyed watching this artistic process…one of a kind…amazing ‼️ 🙋‍♀️💖🇨🇱

[@MLM111]

Okay I need to expand my pond now 😂

[@KoiAddiction]

Well, then, all the work we did has paid off because it has inspired someone to take the next step :-)

[@jb-2714]

You would never think this absolutely awesome swim pond is in Tennessee. Unbelievable creativity from everyone involved.

[@Tminus89]

No words come to mind to do this justice

[@GregWittstockThePondGuy]

It's amazing work🙌

[@KoiAddiction]

And truthfully, you can never capture the feature in its glory in a video you’ve got to see it in person to get the full effect. Totally appreciate you spending time with us and joining us on our journey. :-)

[@raphaeln3725]

Frist comment, I love ponds!!!

[@levih7326]

This is by far the best aqua scape pond i have ever....and will ever see. And it isnt even close. You speak about working within the area you have, as it is limited, but I assure you, that you utilized this area far better than people with way more room to work with ever have, in my opinion. I honestly can't tell that you have a lack of space. And I would be right there with you on the whole idea of pushing your "chips" into this pile. Give me this over extra cars and stuff all day long. The idea of having all your loved ones over to share this with is what life is all about. Congrats on what is legitimately something that makes me more jealous than most things I have ever seen. Fantastic work you abd your team of geniuses have done.

[@TMichael1415]

❤❤❤❤❤ wow! I love it.

[@Crystalhurb]

Good afternoon Greg hope your having an amazing day. Wow what a spectacular project. Omg its absolutely spectacular. I absolutely love everything about this project.. wow now this is what you call a absolutely beautiful pond. I wish I had this at my house but man thats alot of money for a little pice of heaven. Definitely a statement pice and an amazing project to show potential clients... fantastic job.. hope you have an amazing day Greg and I'll see you next video like always

Such an incredible project built by an incredible family and their friends. This was a great vlog on the story behind this amazing water feature build.

[@Rockscapes]

Feel like this should've/couldve been a 3 part 😂. Absolutely incredible project in every shape or form. A goal in life is to have something on this level for the family! Aoty without a doubt.

[@GregWittstockThePondGuy]

Could've been with all those details!👏

[@vikinggardencreations]

Love John, his work and his channel. Watched all his videos creating this and I was just amazed each time. All that work, time and money was so well spent

[@krissmaboragaysofficials6370]

I can't wait to see if someone in aquascape contractor can make a LAGOON like in our country the Enchanted River and Baracuda lake that have a spring in the bottom.

[@GregWittstockThePondGuy]

Would be a cool idea!

[@krissmaboragaysofficials6370]

Thank you Sir@@GregWittstockThePondGuy and you noticed me like Sir. ED BEAULIEU there are good examples of lagoon springs in California, the Rainbow Springs State Park, Florida

We had a small pond in the bkyard. Consisted of a waterfall that fed a small area that dropped into a 10’ pond that dropped into a 8’ pond. I loved it BUT the worms and algae was too much for me! Cleaning the filters were a nightmare and the critters were scary

So what do the poor people do that have vision some skills and a desire for a recreational pond? It is discouraging when I watch these videos and its like if you dont have a quarter million your shit out of luck. I hope to show how something magical can be done with 10's of thousand and not hundreds.
