I have had my driveway wash out 5 times this year. When I first moved in almost 20 years ago, it never washed out. Even just a few years ago, it would only wash out once a year at most.

Looks like you could use a drawbridge of some sort to get to the house, concrete would not even work- wash out on the sides of it. Good luck on whatever you do, sorry to see that, water does not stop for anyone. HH
