A new Minneapolis landscaping idea is to create a staycation spot in your backyard. The word, “Staycation” include a combination of “Stay” and “Vacation.” A staycation is a period of time in which a family or individual stays home and partakes in leisure activities within driving distance of their home according to Wikipedia. A Minneapolis landscape designer said, “Why not making your backyard feel like you’re on vacation during the summer?”
To create a staycation spot in your backyard, here are some landscaping ideas:
- Create site destination spaces such as outdoor fireplaces or outdoor fire pit
- Install an outdoor kitchen
- Install lighting in order to make your outdoor space easier to access when it’s dark at night
- Place outdoor furniture that you comfortably sit longer
- Set up a weatherproof speaker system to enjoy music outside during the summer
- Install a gazebo
It’s highly recommended to consult with one of landscape architects or landscape designers when it comes to create a staycation spot.
