Outdoor fireplaces and fire pits add a warm, cozy, ambiance and visual appeal
There are no two ways about it. Fireplaces and fire pits create warmth and coziness in your backyard and make your stone patio multi-seasonal. Plus, the stonework and hardscaping stand in beautiful contrast to the softscape elements that comprise your landscape.
When it comes to entertaining, both fireplaces and fire pits have a magnetic draw. In fact, there’s an almost hypnotic quality that makes family, friends, and guests feel instantly at home. Whether it’s dinner or roasting marshmallows, the outdoor flavors are fabulous.
And, as much as a fireplaces and fire pits create the ambiance that brings a crowd together, they’re also delightfully suited for two. The warmth and light can turn your outdoor space into a romantic getaway where you can catch up following a busy workday, sit quietly, or cuddle under the nighttime sky.

Let’s hear it for fireplaces
- Outdoor fireplaces are more of a statement piece than fire pits. They are a stunning focal point for your backyard in the day or the night.
