10 Playful Outdoor Amenities That Turn the Tiny Dice House Landscaping Into a Real-Life Board Game
Equally playful and imaginative, the outdoor features and landscaping of the Tiny Dice House was designed to be an extension of the unique tiny home itself. Every path, light, yard game and seating choice adds to the feeling that you’ve stepped inside a playable, life-size board game.
We made sure that the outside of the home was just as fun as the interior decor and design so regardless of where you are on the property, you're bound to have an unforgettable fun experience.
Here are ten delightful touches we put into the outdoor experience and landscaping of the Tiny Dice House to make a stay here one of the most memorable experiences.
1. The Colorful Walkway
This isn’t just your typical walkway or entrance path. Inspired by classic board game paths, the colorful boardwalk that leads you to the entrance of the Tiny Dice House represents the whimsical nature of moving from space to space on a board game, subtly signaling that exploration (and fun) is encouraged here.
2. The “Welcome to Pair-a-Dice” Sign
A dice pun that you can’t walk past without smiling or want to stop and take a photo with. The Pair-a-Dice sign is one of the first things you'll see at the entrance of the colorful walkway and sets the tone right at arrival, blending wordplay with a modern signage that feels both classy and clever.
3. Pathway Lighting That Feels Magical at Night
Soft, low-profile pathway lights line the edges of the colorful walkway and home to keep things functional while adding a cozy, almost whimsical glow. It gives off a vibe that this giant life sized board game is still playable even after dark.
4. A Modern Louvered Pergola
Situated just outside the Tiny Dice House is a modern louvered pergola with an adjustable roof that lets guests control sun, shade, and airflow, while enjoying games like ping pong, giant yard jenga, etc. Perfect for making the outdoor space usable year-round (rain or shine) without sacrificing play or design.
5. Vibrant Rocking Chairs
Nothing like sitting back and watching the sunset on a classic rocking chair. These adirondack rocking chairs are just reimagined in bold colors that remind you of a vibrant board game piece. They bring movement, nostalgia, and just the right pop of color—proof that playful doesn’t have to be tacky or non-functional.
6. Giant Yard Games
The best part of having a large outdoor space for the Tiny Dice House is getting to play oversized lawn games in the yard. From giant jenga, dominos, bocce ball, darts, cornhole, crochet, bowling, tetherball, etc. we've got almost every outdoor game imaginable. These yard games invite guests to unplug, compete, and play together in real space, not on a screen and also look good as lawn decor.
7. Hammock & Giant Bean Bag Lounge Zone
In between board games and lawn games, the cozy oversized hammock and giant bean bag chairs offers a comfortable seating area to relax, unwind, and even take a nap.
8. Fire Pit & Outdoor Heater
Designed for gathering, storytelling, and late-night dicey conversations over s'mores, the propane fire pit and heater makes the outdoor space feel intentional and usable even when temperatures dip. The setup is quick to start, turn off and enjoy without the hassle of having to gather and light up firewood.
9. Pac-Man Yellow Table & Chairs
A bold nod to retro gaming culture even when outdoors. This round bar table and seating made in Pac-Man yellow instantly energizes the space and acts like a visual Easter egg for guests who love nostalgic design that combines functionality.
10. Cube Lights That Tie It All Together
Subtle but intentional, the thoughtfully placed cube lights echo the dice motif throughout the landscape. At night, they quietly reinforce the theme while providing a playful ambiance and serving as an extra side table for drinks, games, and more.
