5 ways to arrange 4 Muskoka chairs round a fire pit

1. The compass. North, south, east, west, three feet back. Everyone faces the fire and can see everyone.
2. The horseshoe. Three round the fire, the open side toward the view. Nobody has their back to the lake.
3. Two pairs. Two chairs with a table between, on either side of the fire. Couples talk to couples.
4. The conversation pit. All four on one side in a shallow arc, the fire in front, the wall or the dark behind. For cold nights: everyone gets the heat.
5. The long side. Four in a row facing the fire and the view beyond it. The dock arrangement, on land.

Whichever: three feet from a wood fire, two from gas, and a screen on windy nights. The fire-pit guide. Four chairs is 20% off every chair. Sets.
