Miracles on the beach
There is nothing more appropriate for a fabulous fall feast on a lovely evening, illuminated by candles, paper lanterns and garlands, than a rustic patio next to a tranquil lake or body of water. If you’re lucky enough to live in one of these beautiful homes, then the holiday season will be special with a deck that feels like a natural extension of your home space.
Most rustic decks are created using pressure-treated lumber, mahogany and cedar, or more expensive alternatives like tabebuya.

Protective slabs
Which do you prefer: an imposing outdoor patio that’s integrated with the landscape around your home, or a fenced-in alternative that feels more secluded? It doesn’t make sense to build a deck without slabs if it snows most of the year. Undoubtedly, it will disrupt the attractiveness of the deck and the view that opens up, but it’s definitely a more sensible option. Architecture in the form of a pergola, which covers only part of the site – a wise compromise.
