A fire feature is a worthwhile investment for any property, as it serves as the perfect spot for gathering on chilly evenings here in Nebraska. However, you have two options you can choose from, which are a fire pit or an outdoor fireplace. Neither is better than the other, but there are a few things you should consider so that you opt for the best one for you. First, you will want to consider how much space you have on your property. Second, you should think about how many people you want to enjoy your new fire feature with, whether a bunch or just a few. Finally, you'll want to consider your design goals and whether an outdoor fireplace or a fire pit suits your vision better.


1. How much space do you have on your property for your fire feature?

The first thing you'll want to consider when choosing between an outdoor fireplace and a fire pit is how much space you have on your property. Outdoor fireplaces are usually larger, so if you have more area to work with, then this feature may be the right choice for you. However, if you don't have as much space and need something a little more compact, then a fire pit would work well, too!


2. Do you want to enjoy your fire feature with a bunch of people or just a few?

The next thing you should consider when choosing between a fire pit and an outdoor fireplace is whether you plan on enjoying your feature with a bunch of people or just a few. Fire pits can accommodate more people since you can gather around them and still get the warmth of the fire, making them perfect for larger get-togethers. On the other hand, outdoor fireplaces only provide heat directly in front of them, so they can only warm up a select few for a more intimate, private fireside experience.


3. What are your design goals for your new fire feature?

The last thing you will want to consider when deciding whether to go with an outdoor fireplace or a fire pit is your design goals. If you want to create a statement piece in your outside space, an outdoor fireplace is the way to go. Outdoor fireplaces are more prominent and will become an eye-catching focal feature. Meanwhile, if you prefer something that blends in with its surroundings, then a fire pit is a good option. Fire pits are designed to be more subtle in their appearance, though equally beautiful, and will fit in with your existing outdoor area perfectly.

You can choose whether you want your outdoor fireplace or fire pit to burn natural gas, propane, or wood to suit your preferences.
