If you love the idea of a fire pit but not all the smoke, this post about why we love our new Solo Stove is for you!
The idea of a fire pit in the backyard, at the beach, sounds so dreamy and the perfect thing to do when entertaining. Except, traditional firepits are just too smoky. You never know where to sit to avoid being in direct aim of the smoke blowing right your way.
We first learned about Solo Stoves on our trip to Maine
When we had the amazing opportunity to stay at The Lost Kitchen Cabins in Freedom, Maine, we had the chance to use a Solo Stove for the first time. We loved it from the beginning. We used it at night and even in the morning when sat outdoors and had our coffee and breakfast. It made it so enjoyable.
What makes a Solo Stove Different than a traditional fire pit?
The Solo Stove Bonfire is engineered to burn smoke-free. It weighs only about 20 pounds making it very portable while still being extremely durable.
They do have larger options, if taking it to the beach or to a tailgate is not important. The one we have is plenty big enough for us!
They also have attachments like a pizza oven.
The Solo Stove Bonfire 2.0 is so easy to use
We created an Instagram reel unboxing the Solo Stove Bonfire 2.0, showing how simple it is to take it out of the box, set it up, and start a fire. It took no time at all before we enjoyed sitting around the fire.
A Solo Stove Makes Winter Entertaining Outdoors Possible
We love being outdoors, but not when it’s freezing out. Lighting a fire in our Solo Stove makes it cozy enough to enjoy the outdoors in your backyard or at the beach! We can’t wait to take our portable Solo Stove to the beach for a winter picnic.

I’m convinced that we need a solo stove…I see s’mores in my future…like with salted dark chocolate 🙂
Thanks for mentioning my Paris post. It still feels dream-like.
Happy Sunday!

That Solo firepit looks like so much fun! Here in CA we need the faux ones due to sparks. If a spark hits a dry patch in the summer we could start a fire. If I lived in the East I would be all over that!!

I love the idea of an easy to start, lightweight, Solo Stove. I’m glad you took the time to share the video. I will have to look into one for my patio.

Hi Andrea,
The outdoor furniture is all from Target. This will be its 6th season, and it’s holding up great! We have it on the front porch too! I checked and I can no longer find the same exact pieces, but this is pretty close.
