Here is a sanctuary, a kind of place one can go to spend time with family or simply get away from it all. It is the reward for all the years of the 9 to 5 headache... a secluded and private haven.

So, when considering all the many possibilities for creating this haven, it's best to pose the question, what atmosphere appeals to me and the family the most?
I tend towards the tropical. I just can't get enough of the island look. It delivers a mood that enriches my spirit.
But maybe you are drawn to a very formal Victorian garden, or maybe even a Persian styled garden.
It's all about what you really love when it comes to backyard landscaping ideas.
Curb appeal is for the front yard.
Paradise is for the backyard, don't you think?
This is where you can add whimsy and intense mood. Who doesn't like to walk a stone path in the cool of the day?
Placing rocks can add so much to the feel of your yard...and if you're the industrious type, they can be free! (that is, if you don't count the cost of your hard labor)
And don't forget the water feature! It's one of the coolest backyard landscaping ideas by far.
I also love fountains, and with just a little creativity, a pump and a few pretty pots, you can build your own unique fountain.
You really should consider a pond and/or waterfall for your backyard.
(Don't miss our pages on Backyard Ponds and Garden Waterfalls).
Did you know you can have a pondless waterfall? And they're really not that hard to do...really! And the so gratifying sound of trickling water is worth all the backache.
What about a cool tree house for the kids? I have some really neat tree house plans that will give your kids hours of creative fun rather than stuck indoors in front of a tv.
Best of all...a swimming pool would go very nicely in the backyard don't you think? And today, pool design goes way outside the box! Man, it's unreal how incredibly beautiful and unique pool designs have become!
Then to add to your backyard landscaping ideas there are patios, landscaping lights, pergolas, endless outdoor furniture, birdhouses, bird feeders and bird baths, beautiful decks, and so much more.
And all to turn your backyard into your own private little paradise. Don't you deserve it?
