Just what we needed.

I bought this a couple months ago and it took about 2 days to build and 3 people at times and wasn't too difficult. Love the power feature so we can add lights around it soon. It completes the back yard perfectly and provides shade at a reasonable price since patio covers are so high. Materials seem nice and sturdy and look quality.

Fun to assemble!

I love a good project and the Cordova Gazebo was just that. I took my time and enjoyed every minute. Every piece went together perfectly and nothing was missing. There was extra hardware on each type screw and bolt so I had no problems to work out at all. It looks great and we have enjoyed immensely it since day one.

Gutter system for 16x12 Barrington Gazebo

I purchased and built a 16x12 Barrington Gazebo this past summer and we have absolutely loved it! I would say that everyday that we had good weather, we were under it. We thought that even in a light rain with no wind, we could hang out, but unfortunately, without anything catching the rain dripping off the roof, it would hit the concrete and splatter back under the gazebo, making the practical usable area very small under the gazebo. Backyard Discovery does not offer a gutter system for their gazebos, and I really didn't like the look of the offerings from some of the other gazebo manufacturers out there. So, I designed my own. It was relatively simple, but would have been easier had I done it when first building the unit. First, I removed the trim pieces around the outside of the roof. Then I added 4" flashing under the roof panels, hanging down the facial board about 3". I had purchased steel J channel (brown, nearly the same color as the supplied trim), which I attached under the flashing with a stainless steel screw through the flashing and J channel into the facial board. I had to cut, bend, rivet, and caulk the corners of the J channel. I also had to make sure there was a slight slope from corner to corner so the water would flow correctly. On the lowest corner (opposite corner being the highest), I simply channeled the water out into the yard, instead of a downspout. Although a downspout would work also. Then I reinstalled the original trim with it also handing into the J channel. It really turned out great, looks great, and works perfectly. It handles light to medium rains easily, and allow us to hang out under the gazebo and stay dry. I think it would be great if Backyard Discovery would include this with the gazebo originally, or as an option. But until then, this is a great DIY for it.

Nice Gazebo, looks Great.

I received this a week ago. Nearly have it complete. Directions pretty good. Pretty apprehensive about weather asm. parts would fit. Everything does, amazing with the amount of predrilled holes all being right on. Only issue was 2 roof rafters on 14" side had purlin holes off location, wasn't a big deal. Can't wait to start using.

Excellent addition to our backyard

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have had Cabana since the begin of August. It became the main focal point of our backyard. The young adults in our home enjoyed lounging under it after a dip in the pool or just to relax and watch their favorite show in the evening. Great place to watch my Games as well. The cabana was an relatively easy assembly and setup. It was a fun task to undertake with my friend. It took us approximately 5 afternoons to get it completed. About 15 total hours for the setup of the piers and the Cabana itself.

Love our new gazebo!

This is our second gazebo to build at two different locations and it was a great experience. My wife and I (61 and 58 years old) assembled the gazebo by ourselves. We had our neighbor help with the 14foot roof panels, but we did everything else by ourselves. It was straightforward with the instructions. Just take your time. It helps to have the right tools, drills, etc. to assemble. The quality of the wood is great. And there are plenty of extra bolts and screws for future repairs or needs. If you enjoy DIY projects, this is a fun one to build.

Best Purchase Ever!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I previously had no shade in my yard and in CA it gets so hot that my yard was unbearable in the summer. I could not be happier with my Gazebo purchase! It’s sturdy, looks fantastic, was fairly easy to put together, now we can actually sit outside and enjoy our yard without burning!

Love our new retreat!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought our gazebo a few months ago. Due to time constraints for other aspects of our backyard project, we had to build it ourselves. The instructions, videos and clearly labeled parts, made the construction "easy" to do. The finished product has already become a favorite spot to hang out with family, friends, and each other. Thank you Backyard Discovery!

Amazing value.. quality build

I spent countless hours researching gazebos. I searched all over for a very high quality gazebo that would last a long time and that looked great on the new patio I just installed. I stumbled on this gazebo on display at a store by me and I was really impressed with how well the structure was made. Even though it is a dark walnut stain, it had an ever-so-slight hue of red color on a couple of the posts while my wife and I were looking at it in the store. Also, we were looking for something that had a black roof as opposed to a dark brown. So my wife and I decided to keep looking for another option. We looked at other brands which was aesthetically exactly what we were looking for (natural light wood tone with black roof). However, the quality was no where near this. From the max snow load to the wind certification of 100mph, and the impressive quality of the steel roof and cedar, there really was no competition. As you can see from the pictures, there is no red hue at all and it really looks awesome against the gray paving stones I have. CONS: There was a couple nicks and scratches, as well as some waviness in the roof. Also, it comes with screws to bolt into the ground, which is an optional step. The screws to anchor it to the ground were not as high quality as the rest of the structure, so I bought concrete screw anchors (1/4” DIA. x1-3/4” L). They worked out great. Lastly, I love the electric hookup, but the cord was a little short for where we needed it to go by a foot or two. It would be great if the cord length could be adjusted. There are workarounds for this like placing the electric panel lower, so it’s not the end of the world. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase!

High quality meets beautiful design

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the Cordova from Backyard Discovery in late spring 2023 and it's been fantastic! It is so well built, sturdy and it totally transformed the look of my deck and backyard. There is enough space for a table seating 8 underneath and still room to walk around. I chose it because compared to every other brand, the build quality and ratings for wind and snow were better. Plus it looks beautiful! You can't build one this good, this safe, and looks this nice on your own for the price. I added some fans with remotes up inside and some lights around the edge. I get nothing but compliments on it. So glad I chose Backyard Discovery brand. Highly recommend.
