Dear Cecil
I have some confusion about water behind a house being good or bad. Much of what I read says that as long as one cannot see where it leaves the property, it is okay. But, water flow direction is important, only I can't seem to figure out which direction is good or bad. Here is the situation. Our property is 11 acres, bisected at about 2 acres across by a seasonal creek. We plan to build our home in the front two acre section, with a west-facing front door. The creek direction flows south to north, so as you are looking out the front door, the water would be flowing behind you from left to right. Is this good or bad? Further, I should say that this creek is only running in the summer months through water rights for irrigation off the river, which is about 1/2 mile from our property. The rest of the year, this creek bed is dry. It is lined with trees.
Thank you in advance for your reply. Michele
