The sun is out, summer clothes are out of storage, and restaurant patios are full again. We're full steam ahead on grabbing outdoor entertaining pieces, so we can soak up the sun in style with our loved ones. Our latest find is easily the coolest. It combines everything you need: space to sit and eat together, shade, storage, and a bar area to mix up frozen cocktails. Did we mention it ships and installs for free? Yes, Costco's Versa Bar Shed Pavilion is the all-in-one bar shed/gazebo combo.
It combines so many of our favorite Costco entertaining pieces: the Tiny Tiki Cabin's storage and prep space, the solid wood bar counter of the Boozy Bungalow Shed, and the entertaining space of the Party Solarium. It measures 14 feet wide by 19 feet long, creating the perfect outdoor entertainment center. Sliding bar doors reveal the perfect prep space for the host who loves to be behind the counter serving guests.
We're so inspired by this pavilion's customization potential. You can easily string lights along the posts and roof for a cozy twilight glow. It's primed for the paint of your choice so it can match your home's aesthetic. There's even a sturdy aluminum roof, so a little rain won't put a damper on your party. It stretches over 13 feet of gathering space, and you can place the outdoor furniture set of your choice under the canopy's shade.

If you have a pool already, this is the perfect accompaniment for pool parties and backyard barbecues. Or, you can bring a TV outdoors and relax and watch the game comfortably. You'll want to act fast to snag one of these for the summer—it's one of Gorilla Shed's special events at Costco, so it'll only be on sale for a few more days. If you miss the event, though, we've got you covered with outdoor entertainment zones where you can shop at Amazon, Walmart, and Lowe's.
