Diverting Water Going Through Yard

i have a similar problem the rain wipes out the driveway and there is a natural spring higher on the property. The cost has been a big factor for me as I'm on a limited income, but we have come up with a few ideas. Like paving the driveway after building it up. This would divert water to the side.

I've also thought about putting in a ditch off the driveway, and funneling water to a man made pond, both I think are good ideas. I think money would be an issue for me and maybe you too so in the mean time im putting paver stones in for walking and building up drive way a little at a time starting at the bottom as we started at the top and it took about 5 good rains to bring it down driveway in any case you are not alone.
