Looking for some Pond Realism

Anyone try to make a small pier.  Say a lot no bigger than 1x3 or 1x4 that you could place going into Pegs Ponds, it may need to be an extended piece and one that would go into regular water.  All the piers out there are huge 1x7 or bigger.  This is something to add some realism.

Also possibly a small boat launch.  I tried to do these things in the lot editor but I have no creativity when it comes to the lot editor that they all look like crap.

These are just some of the things that could make the peg ponds or plopped water come to life.

I agree. I would love to see:

1. a small boat dock for a remote lake.
2. A swimming platform in the lake with a small diving board and a ladder to get out.
3. A boat house.
4. A boat lift, to store the boat out of the water.
5. A small board walk set...not like that used on an ocean, but for small foot paths to get around small lakes. They are commonly used at the marshy, muddy inlet side of the lake where it is difficult to walk around. They are seldom on the edge of the lake, but used to connect the two shoreline trails through the marshy areas. I've never seen them with hand rails, except for over the small bridges where the streams enter the lakes.
6. Fish under the water
7. Marshy edges, with cat tails and other shoreline flora.

I'll look for the BATS if someone will assemble them.
