No. 5 Fences & Gates · Mountain & Cabin
Rose-Covered Arbour and Weathered Picket Fence
Climbing pink roses frame a weathered timber arbour and gate along a white picket fence, opening onto a gravel path that leads to a log and stone cabin bordered by pines.
Design notes
Mountain and cabin design lets the landscape lead. Look for heavy timber and log, stacked stone and boulders, steel and dark stains that recede against the trees, and decks and terraces that reach toward the view. Fire is central — a stone fireplace, a fire pit ringed with Adirondack chairs — and hot tubs earn their place. Planting is pines, aspens, grasses and wildflowers; paving is flagstone and gravel that can take the snow.
What to look for
- Height, and whether the top is capped or open
- Which side faces out and how posts are spaced
- Planting on both sides so the fence reads as a hedge line
