This past week, my summer dream finally came true. No, we didn't go to Hawaii. Maybe that will come next year. This summer I was finally able to achieve my dream in creating the outdoor look I have wanted for years, thanks to my husband and Rhino Deck.
We have an aboveground pool measuring 14 feet across. Until last week, we had the pool set on the ground beside our house with only an access ladder. My goal was to create a deck surrounding the pool that would connect to the side of our house utilizing our French doors.
Last week, my husband took off work and set out to create my dream deck for our pool. He used Rhino Deck grooved decking in the acorn brown color. The grooved pieces, used along with Rhino Deck clips, meant he was able to install the deck in a much shorter amount of time, creating a seamless look. He also used Rhino Deck products to create rails for safety and stairs to access the back and front yards.
I could not be anymore thrilled with the way the deck turned out. I know that because we used this high-quality decking product, our deck will remain looking great for years to come.
Since I now have my deck, which does not have to be stained or painted, I can focus on furnishing the space. I found a few lounge chairs for the pool and placed them close to the water. I then purchased a deck box to store the kid’s goggles, sunscreen, beach towels and toys. What’s more, the deck box can also double as a bench.
I repurposed our wrought iron furniture and set it up on the deck so we can eat outdoors on warm evenings. My husband also created an ideal location for his grill.
I cannot wait to have my first party to show off my new deck and furnishings. I can just imagine my family enjoying the pleasant evening sitting on the deck as my kids and nieces and nephews enjoy the pool. We can eat some of my husband’s grilled dishes while listening to the crickets chirp.
To me, building a deck is all about constructing a location in which to enjoy backyard life. It allows me to entertain more guests, especially considering that my home’s interior entertaining space is small. In a way, our new deck has added a whole room just for entertaining.
