8 Droolworthy Outdoor Porches You’ll Admire and Envy!
Have you been looking for droolworthy outdoor porches? Look no further! Check out all 8 of my favorites right now for all of your inspirational needs.
Truthfully, I’ve been struggling with designing my own “ideal” rustic and modern back porch ever since we finished painting the deck floors. I am so thankful for the huge wrap-around porch on the back of our house, but it has been a struggle to figure out how to place the furniture.
For instance, one side of our porch faces our pond which is obviously a focal point. However, I don’t want to restrict the flow of traffic with huge couches or tables facing that direction either.
I figured it was about time to look around and see what kind of layout inspiration I could find to help me with my dilemma. Have you ever looked for porch inspiration? Holy cow, I think I could have spent hours upon hours just gazing at all the eye candy!
My Favorite 8 Droolworthy Outdoor Porches:
One of my favorite things about this particular porch is the blueish gray ceiling! Not to mention, the pop of color with the curtains and pillows just makes me crave for a little color also on our porch. Can you even imagine how amazing it would be to look at this summery atmosphere all year round? Yup. definitely drooling.

Simple. Sometimes less is more, and when I created this particular front porch scene I wanted my freshly painted deck to shine through! So, I used rustic and natural elements to allow it to become the focal point for everyone that visited. I still love that particular shade of blue that we choose!
