Make the most of rainy days with your outdoor living spaces!
Rainy days in Maryland are special. Torrential downpours and thunderstorms are exciting, and mild rains create a calm, sleepy atmosphere. Even if it is wet outside, you can enjoy the rainy days in your outdoor living spaces. Here are some rainy day outdoor living space ideas you are sure to love. If any spark the imagination, feel free to browse the blog and learn more with Mid-Atlantic Deck & Fence!
Covered Pergola with Curtains
Pergolas usually have open roofs; the wood or vinyl slats are the only roof they have. However, you can create a solid roof overhead by installing clear plastic panels that lie over the pergola roof slats. Add some curtains around the perimeter, and you can prevent sideways rain from getting you wet.
Pagoda with Curtains
Likewise, a pagoda gives you an outdoor living feature with a solid roof overhead, already creating the instant hangout spot when it rains or shines. Adding solid or sheer curtains gives privacy, but heavier curtains will do a better job of keeping out the rain.
Screened Porch
A screened porch gives you ample room to lounge, watch movies, play games, garden, etc. With its solid walls and roof, it is the most indoor-like outdoor space you can find; with Mid-Atlantic Deck & Fence, you can build screened porches with vinyl glazing windows that keep out the rain.
Gazebo
It is not traditional to add curtains to gazebos, but these outdoor features are also handy for keeping a solid shelter overhead. Gazebos can have screened windows as well, so if it is a nice, hot summer day, you can keep the bugs away.
Retractable Awning over Patio
If you want to extend the usage of your deck or patio, then a retractable awning may do the trick. You could also try a retractable canopy umbrella, which will also give ample coverage. These solutions would be a lot more efficient than a patio table umbrella alone.

If it gets a little cold on this rainy day, consider adding a space heater or a fire pit that sits on the floor or a tabletop. Add some comfortable furnishings and serve warm drinks. The rainy day outdoor living space is complete!
