Beachfront Landscaping Ideas
Video Transcript
A beach or lakefront setting is a great asset to your home, so let's learn a little bit about how you can make the most of your space.
In a lot of cases, people are looking to both relax and enjoy the view from their property, but also make it an active space. A place where families can go putt on the putting green, children can play on the beach, and adults can sit and enjoy the view or enjoy an outdoor meal on the patio.
You may want to focus more on nature. In this Heritage Pointe garden a natural water course with the illusion that it joins into the lake was developed.
The fire pit patio is both a focal point and a destination for people to relax for the evening and enjoy the view out across the lake
Lakeside fire pits are functional both for summer use and also in the winter for perhaps a skating party or a wiener roast.
Lakefronts are a natural place to incorporate natural features, like at this rural lakefront property where there are both places to view the garden from near the home, or down closer to the water.
A natural water feature with extensive streams and falls has a relaxing sound and is great for attracting wildlife
If you have an active young family you may like to keep things low maintenance with some synthetic turf, a beach to play on, and a gas fire pit to enjoy later into the evening hours
This property incorporates both adult things and children things with lots of crossover in between. All ages can enjoy the putting green, the children can enjoy the beach and the water all summer long. The beach area is strategically located by the dock between the putting green and firepit area, for easy supervision.
The fire pit provides a four season use area and a place for the adults to sit and visit while the children play.
