Often referred to by its nickname, “The Royal City,” Guelph serves as the seat of Wellington County. Consistently ranked as one of the best places to live in all of Canada, Guelph counts approximately 125,000 local residents. A number of waterways and natural bodies contribute to the makeup of Guelph, from the Speed and Eramosa rivers to the buried waterways flowing underneath the city’s streets.

At Quiet Nature, we’ve pioneered a zero emissions landscaping approach in an effort to create and maintain outdoor living spaces that benefit the ecosystem.

Interested in a natural alternative? Experience ‘water as nature intended’ with one of our signature natural swimming ponds!

Discover endless entertainment and enhance the natural surroundings of your property with ponds and pools designed to blend with your environment and lifestyle seamlessly. Celebrated by European homeowners for their beauty and functionality, natural swimming ponds are now emerging as a compelling alternative to traditional chemically treated pools. Unlike conventional pools, natural swimming pools function as miniature ecosystems, harnessing plant life and beneficial bacteria to purify the water, ensuring a pristine swimming experience.

These unique water features often resemble natural ponds, and their adaptable design allows for integration into diverse landscapes, from modern backyards to rustic settings. The versatility of natural swimming pools means they can be tailored to complement any outdoor space, whether a sleek, contemporary garden or a traditional country estate. This adaptability extends beyond aesthetics as these pools can be designed to various depths and sizes, catering to different uses like lap swimming, casual wading, or creating a naturalistic landscape.
