New TimberTech Deck Enhancing the Scenic View of Lake Holiday in Sandwich IL

A Lakeside Deck Designed to Belong: Lake Holiday Project in Sandwich, IL

This March, our team at Backyard Images completed another custom deck project in the Lake Holiday community in Sandwich, Illinois—an area where we’ve been fortunate to build several decks recently thanks to strong word‑of‑mouth referrals. Projects like this are always especially rewarding, not just because of the stunning lake views, but because they allow us to design outdoor spaces that truly belong with the home and its surroundings.
 

Designed to Complement the Home and the View

This home backs directly up to the lake, making the view the undeniable focal point of the design. From the beginning, our goal was to create a deck that felt like a natural extension of the home while maximizing sightlines to the water.
 
The homeowners selected TimberTech Prime+ decking in Dark Cocoa, a rich, warm tone that pairs beautifully with the home’s brown cedar siding. The color choice adds depth and contrast without overpowering the natural materials of the house, helping the deck blend seamlessly into its environment rather than competing with it.
 
To keep the design clean and visually open, we installed Westbury Tuscany aluminum railings in fine‑textured black. This railing style offers a refined, timeless look while allowing uninterrupted views of the lake—especially important for a setting like this. The result is a deck that pulls in the scenery instead of distracting from it.

Built with Craftsmanship at the Core

Every Backyard Images project is built with a strong emphasis on craftsmanship, and this deck was no exception. While materials and aesthetics matter, long‑term durability, structural integrity, and attention to detail are what truly set a great deck apart.

 

From precise framing and clean board alignment to smooth transitions and professional finishing touches, our crew focused on getting every detail right. Composite decking like TimberTech Prime+ offers excellent performance and low maintenance, but proper installation is critical to ensure it looks great and performs well for years to come. That’s where experience makes the difference.

 

Custom Design Through Experience

One of the things our clients appreciate most is our ability to design decks that fit the home—not just physically, but stylistically. No two homes are alike, and no two outdoor spaces should be either.

 

For this Lake Holiday home, the combination of warm decking, black aluminum railings, and an open layout created a balanced design that feels both refined and inviting. It’s a space made for morning coffee, summer evenings by the lake, and gatherings with family and friends—all while complementing the character of the home.
