About
Owner-operated, and proud of it.
For 23+ years, Pacific Pondscapes has been Jamie Downs’s craft — designing, building, and repairing water features across the Willamette Valley.

Pacific Pondscapes started with a simple idea: build beautiful water features the right way, treat people honestly, and stand behind the work. Two decades later, that hasn’t changed.
We design and install ponds and waterfalls because working with the landscape is a career and a passion — and it shows in the spaces we create. With 23+ years designing waterfalls, ponds, and hardscapes, we’ve handled projects of every size and built a track record clients trust.
But the work people talk about most is the hard stuff: the leak another company couldn’t find, the pump that needed swapping yesterday, the neglected pond that needed bringing back. Jamie Downs has built a reputation on figuring out the problem, fixing it, and charging fairly for it.
Our mission
How we work, and why it matters.
We’re committed to creating aesthetically pleasing, environmentally responsible landscapes that uniquely reflect the people they’re made for.
Honesty first
Straight answers and fair hourly pricing. We tell you what to expect before we start — and what we’d do if it were our yard.
Built to last
Quality liner, real stone, properly sized plumbing. We’d rather do it right once than be back to patch it.
Owner on the job
Jamie Downs is on site, hands in the work — not a salesperson who hands you off to a crew you never met.
Easy on the land
Eco-friendly materials and techniques wherever we can, and less waste on every project.
In their words
What neighbors say.
- Fair, honest hourly pricing
- Straight about what to expect
- Prompt and hard-working
- Skilled at diagnosing and fixing water-feature problems
“Another company made several visits, charged a lot, and never fixed the leak in our large backyard waterfall. Jameson diagnosed and fixed it in two visits and cleaned the waterfall for a reasonable price. Highly recommend — he knows how to figure out the problem and gets it fixed. Always prompt and a hard worker.”
“I was impressed by how efficiently and confidently Jameson swapped out our sump pump. He charges a fair price per hour and is honest about what to expect.”
