I designed the deck this spring, it was built in the summer and in the fall we put in the waterfall and  pond.

Before finishing around the pond we built planting boxes and steps around deck joining it to the lower deck and pond  and redid the front yard.  We needed fill from the front to build up around the upper deck so that no railing was needed:
