Outdoor Dining by the Pond

Dining outdoors is a refreshing experience, especially when you have friends, family, a beloved pet, and a beautiful view of a pond filled with koi and waterlilies!






A wall of stone becomes a thing of beauty when painted to blend with the deck's tropical pond. Blue dining chairs complement the mural colors.



Summer days don't seem so hot when there's a pond and waterfall nearby.



A multi-layered deck provides ample seating for festive gatherings by the waterfall and stream.



A cozy table for two provides intimate seating for romantic dinners by the pond.



A fresh-squeezed glass of lemonade provides much-needed relief after a busy day at work. What a great way to unwind while watching the kids play in the pond.



A covered deck shelters meal time should the weather turn sour. No need to rush indoors if rain drops fall!



Enjoying a meal on this patio is like being on vacation, dining in the tropics.



What a pleasure to have a vacation-like dining spot in your own backyard.



Even a casual picnic gets elevated to a divine experience when fine wine and fresh-baked bread are savored alongside the waterfalls.

Where's your favorite place to dine outdoors?

Hi Jennifer, I always love to see what new pond features you share at my Bunny Hop.

I think that that painted wall looks pretty good... better than an ugly block wall!

Thanks again for coming to the party :)
