Outdoor Tiki Bars, Swim-Up Bars & More

At a certain point in your life, staying in is going to be more appealing than going out, and a fully stocked outdoor bar makes that decision even easier. You can choose who you drink with, what’s on the menu, and more. Whether you want a coastal-themed tiki bar, a swim-up bar built into the side of your pool, or a full-service bar tucked into your pergola or gazebo, Outdoor Innovations aims to bring fun-filled luxury to your fingertips. We’ll deck it out with wine and beer coolers, lockable shelves, sinks, cabinets, and more depending on your needs.

Outdoor Pizza Ovens & Roasters

Wood-fired pizza is a huge crowd-pleaser. A wood-fired pizza oven is a fantastic option for filling space and creating a beautiful focal point. The stonework alone will have your neighbors peeking over for a glimpse. If you love a cozy family dinner or hosting great parties, an outdoor pizza oven should be first on your list of backyard must-haves.

This is also great for a make-your-own pizza-themed party!  Kids love making their creations and so do adults!

Outdoor Fireplaces & Fire Pits

One of the most inviting options you can add to your outdoor kitchen and backyard is a fireplace or fire pit. With a fire feature, you and your family or friends can enjoy the simple nights with brats, hot dogs, s’mores, and so much more. Glass fire tables, stone fireplaces and fire pits, and other fire features are perfect for a warm, cozy ambiance or another option for outdoor dining.

It's also a great way to spend an evening with a glass of wine with a friend or loved one.

What Our Customers Are Saying

Craig and his team did an outstanding job creating a backyard oasis for us. From the initial design to completion, the professionalism and expertise were evident every step of the way. The attention to detail and commitment to our vision truly set them apart. We highly recommend Craig and Outdoor Innovations for your landscape and backyard remodel needs.

Karen Montour
Absolutely incredible work. I was able to meet with the owner within days of having a fire burn down my outdoor kitchen. We worked together to design a beautiful new space that was a major update to the old kitchen. Every person that worked at my house was thorough, friendly, and did great work. I am thrilled I was able to work with Outdoor Innovations on this project and would highly recommend them to anyone I know!
Mandi Leonard
We worked with Outdoor Innovations adding a pool to our sloped yard last spring. I can't say enough about what a great experience this was, Asher helped us translate our vague idea into a vision and a plan. The project moved along smoothly and on schedule. Asher worked with us where we wanted changes and did a great job communicating. All of the people we dealt with on their crews were very professional and friendly.
Barry Wallen
Make your neighbors jealous is Craig's tag line...and believe me his work is sensational in every sense of the word. Meticulous & creative. A true artist. From small jobs, like pulling and replacing shrubs to exceptional, detailed landscaping with waterfalls. This is the company for the job.
Stacy Risch
They don't "just send two guys and a shovel". I had my backyard re-landscaped and they accomplished it in 3 days--with a mini-waterfall they designed--with a 9-member team. They also did a beautiful job on selection of what plants would go where, so some are always in bloom. And yes, they do stand behind their work. Superb work.
Alex Andrea
Craig and his crew are phenomenal at what they do. The quality and attention to detail is second to none. A+
