Stinger,
Use a quad patch. Modify and scroll all of the way down to the bottom of the modify menu. A new feature that allows you to "paint" hills and valleys awaits. It is so easy to use, I will leave it up to you to explore. Check out how we used it in our animation this year.

This method is not he best way to simulate water. A quad patch with a Noise modifier will work great. The noise can be animated and does a pretty good job as water.
Post again if you need more info.
