Custom Outdoor Shade Structures by Oasis Landscape Group

A well-designed pergola or pavilion doesn’t just add shade—it defines your entire outdoor space.

At Oasis, we design and build custom pergolas and pavilions that create structure, comfort, and a true outdoor living experience. Whether you're looking to add partial shade over a patio or a fully covered space for year-round use, we build with intention—blending design, durability, and functionality.

We proudly serve homeowners across Anne Arundel County, Howard County, Montgomery County, and surrounding Maryland areas.

Pavilions vs Pergolas

Both are beautiful outdoor structures — but they serve different purposes. Here's what sets them apart so you can choose the right fit for your space.

Pavilion

Complete coverage

A pavilion features a solid, fully enclosed roof that provides complete weather protection. Think of it as an outdoor room — a permanent, all-season structure you can enjoy rain or shine.

Solid roof — full protection from rain & sun
Year-round usability, even in harsh weather
Often includes electrical & lighting options
Higher cost; more permanent installation
Feels like a true outdoor room or extension

Pergola

Open-air elegance

A pergola has an open lattice or slatted roof with beams and rafters, allowing sunlight and air to pass through. It defines a space beautifully without fully enclosing it — ideal for climbing plants and dappled shade.

Open lattice roof — partial shade & airflow
Perfect for vines, climbing plants & greenery
More affordable; easier to install
No full rain protection without added canopy
Creates atmosphere; great for entertaining

Pergolas: Light, Airy, and Architectural

Pergolas are perfect for creating a defined outdoor space while still allowing light and airflow. They add a clean, elevated look to patios, pool areas, and backyard seating spaces.

Pavilions: Full Shade & Year-Round Functionality

If you’re looking for full coverage and a more substantial structure, a pavilion creates a true outdoor room. These are ideal for homeowners who want to entertain, cook, or relax outside regardless of the weather.
