No. 79 Landscaping · Mountain & Cabin
Stone Pond and Fountain Beside Mountain Home
Beside a timber and stone mountain home, a flagstone patio surrounds a pond and fountain water feature bordered by gravel paths, boulders, and native grasses framing tall pines and a distant mountain view.
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
- Three layers: canopy, shrubs, groundcover
- How hardscape and planting share the edges
- Plants suited to the climate, not just the photo
