Too Much Water

Good morning to all. I just found and joined this group. I live in Washington state near the coast so you can imagine I get lots of rain. I have a beautiful semi-secluded 5 acres in the country. I love it except I am trying to landscape the side yard along a slight slope. The problem is that in this area I have a natural spring that floods my yard in the winter months. And here winter rains usually last about 5 months. I have given some thought to incorporating the spring into a water feature instead of digging yet another deeper drain line. Any ideas on the subject?
