I have had good luck using a cheap electric sump pump, and a bucket. The right bucket helps, and an electric staple bucket is the one I stick with. It's a 2 gallon bucket, so it requires a smaller hole. I dig a hole in the corner, as deep as I can without turning it into soup. Put the sump in the bucket, and sink it without burying it. As long as you keep the walls from caving into the bucket, it will tolerate seeds and muddy water. It also keeps the hose water from filling the hole back up when you shut the pump off. They will pump about 20' vertical.
