Koreman Landscape Company Our company has been installing these type of fireplaces for many years. We actually have a very similair one in our backyard. I have not heard of anyone ever falling in them. I do have a client that posts pictures of her dog jumping in her fire pit, not when the fire is on :)
Good luck getting your hubby to agree, a firepit is a great addition to any yard.
How is a sunken fire pit like this one constructed? - What is placed in the bottom to keep it from filling with water, what type of brick is used for the internal firewall, how deep? »
Consider having professional photos taken. Since most visitors will be booking your vacation home without seeing it in person, having really superb photos is essential. Enlist the help of a friend with top-notch photography skills or hire a pro. When it comes time for the photo shoot, make sure the house is clean and uncluttered from top to bottom (put all personal items away), inside and out. You may also want to take a few pictures of nearby draws, such as a beach within walking distance of the house or a favorite biking trail.More: How to Take Photos of Your House
