Pond Pro Shop

Situated just north of Shawnee, Oklahoma, Pond Pro Shop is a dedicated destination for water garden and koi pond enthusiasts across the region. This specialty retailer focuses squarely on the pond world — offering supplies for building, stocking, and maintaining backyard water features, along with plants, fish, and even pottery to complement an outdoor aquatic setup. Reviewers consistently mention the shop as a one-stop resource for pond construction and upkeep.

' The inventory covers the full spectrum of water garden needs, from pond-building materials and filtration equipment to live plants and koi. Staff have been praised by multiple visitors for their plant and fish knowledge, with one reviewer specifically noting helpful guidance when selecting plants and fish for their setup. The store has deep roots in the Shawnee area, with some customers reporting over a decade of patronage dating back to its earlier days under founder Mike Miller.

That long history speaks to the niche Pond Pro Shop fills — in a region where dedicated pond retailers are scarce, having a brick-and-mortar shop staffed by people who understand water gardens is genuinely valuable. That said, the experience isn't universally glowing. A handful of reviewers have noted inconsistent customer service and pricing that runs higher than online alternatives.

Some long-time customers feel the personal touch has diminished over the years. It's worth going in with specific questions and a clear idea of what you need. For pond keepers in central Oklahoma, Pond Pro Shop remains one of the few physical stores entirely devoted to the craft.

The combination of live plants, koi, pond hardware, and decorative pottery under one roof makes it a practical stop for anyone building or refreshing a water garden. Just be prepared to advocate for yourself if you need detailed product guidance.
