Our client wanted an outdoor fireplace for their home in Shorewood, Minnesota where they could enjoy summer and fall evenings in a beautiful garden setting. Together we created a sanctuary that provides its users with an experience of exceptional peace and tranquility. The pergola covered deck and rustic fireplace provides the sitting area while the garden provides the scenic settings. A simple water feature provides a soft masking back ground sound while the the unique stonework and lush plantings completes the experience. Looking from the pool up towards the house the newly added deck with its cantilevered point appear to have been an original feature of the house. The new deck also captures a nice view of the lake below.
