Our clients needed a welcoming retreat for visiting family and friends—sometimes for extended stays—as well as a hub for poolside living. We designed a pool house that functions beautifully as a guest cottage, offering all the comforts of home. With a pizza oven and high-end grill in the open-air kitchen, it’s ready for everything from summer parties to quiet weekend getaways.

We added a new covered patio off the back of the home. The patio cover blends seamlessly with the existing home and into the existing pool surround with the always been there appeal Archadeck is so good at achieving. The covered patio also features a charming cedar pergola on one end, giving the homeowners a place for their grill, along with a revved-up aesthetic!

The rectangular fire pit with glass beads cradled in stone between the pergola’s support posts has a “built-in” look. The fire pit and the coping at the bottom of the pergola’s posts are the same stone used throughout.

Scott Simpson Backyard pathway leading to pool using natural stones and low maintenance grass. Matching water fountain near the screen enclosure provides insulation from surrounding traffic noise. Lighting completed to provide evening accent.

A dark-framed canopy shelters paired lounge seats beside Dana’s raised spa. The pool’s stepped outline meets pale paving and lawn in this backyard at Winter Park, Florida.

The cabana was placed at the end of the pool to provide opportunities for a quiet, romantic getaway. The cabana is enclosed by block wall with an ipe wood veneer. Horizontal shudders are also of ipe. They allow for privacy with air movement (notice the angle of the shudder will not allow visibility into the cabana). The double fabric cabana is grey on the exterior with a white interior. A simple ceiling fan and light illuminates the entire space. The fireplace is precast concrete. It is natural gas with an internal ventilation system. The shower, also shown, is located just to the right of the cabana.

This backyard at the Paul Residence in Poway, California features a sweeping artificial turf lawn paired with a modern paver patio and poolside water feature. The durable, drought-tolerant turf ensures a lush, green look year-round while significantly reducing maintenance and water use. Border plantings along the new privacy fencing soften the property’s edges, while the clean-lined hardscape design provides ample space for entertaining and relaxation. Together, these elements showcase Greenway’s ability to deliver sustainable, stylish, and family-friendly outdoor living spaces.

This poolside retreat is located on the shores of Lake Minnetonka. ORIJIN's Bisque™ Travertine pool paving creates the feeling of a bright sandy beach underfoot. The crisp and clean aesthetic is a posh backdrop for the pool spa, fire surround, outdoor bar and kitchen.

On the interior of the patio cover, we used a beautiful pine tongue and groove ceiling. The ceiling is stained in dark Walnut to give it a rustic appeal. We also stained the cedar posts in extra dark Walnut. We also included all the creature comforts you would expect in one of our custom designs… these include two ceiling fans, recessed can lighting and six speakers.

This project included multiple Rosetta Hardscape products including: Belvedere and Kodah Wall Dimensional Coping and Belvedere Coping Dimensional Flagstone

View of the house, main patio, pool and spa area, lawn and seat wall with trellis. Throughout the landscape, we mixed formality with touches of whimsy -- spiral topiary boxwood, bright dashes of colorful flowers, contrasting textures. Poolside trellises frame the greenery and visually link the surrounding area back to the trellised main patio. A set of striped chaise lounges provide outdoor relaxation and a view of the lawn.

A built-in stainless steel grill anchors the outdoor kitchen beneath the patio roof. Undercounter refrigeration, enclosed storage and a sink keep cooking essentials close at hand, with a raised counter overlooking the adjacent lawn and lounge chairs.

This poolside patio received a motorized screen to make the outdoor space more comfortable and versatile. The homeowner can enjoy the space completely open, lower the screen for added shade and privacy, or close it completely when they want additional protection from the sun and bugs. A simple upgrade that makes it easier to enjoy the outdoor space throughout the day.

We added a new covered patio off the back of the home. The patio cover blends seamlessly with the existing home and into the existing pool surround with the always been there appeal Archadeck is so good at achieving. The covered patio also features a charming cedar pergola on one end, giving the homeowners a place for their grill, along with a revved-up aesthetic!
