Default Digging a new pond

Is it a pre-formed liner that you're considering? If so, just make
sure to level the bed that the pond will be sitting on according
to where the low end (highest point on the slope) will be. The
"high" end of the liner (at the lowest point on the slope) can be
camouflaged / blended into the landscape with stone and ground
cover, among other things.
