Backyard Discovery Arcadia 12 x 9.5 ft. Cedar Wood Hardtop Gazebo with Galvanized Steel Roof
$1,789.00
Description
Twelve feet by nine and a half is a small hardtop, and that’s its virtue: it fits the patio you already have, and it’s the size that clears most setback rules without a permit conversation. Check yours anyway.
Backyard Discovery’s Arcadia 12 x 9.5 ft. Cedar Wood Hardtop Gazebo is 100% cedar under a 29-gauge galvanized steel roof, sloped one way so rain runs off the low side. Backyard Discovery’s drawing gives the real numbers: 12 ft 2 1/2 in wide by 9 ft 6 1/2 in deep at the roof, 8 ft 4 1/2 in to the high edge, 7 ft 7 in clear on the tall side and 6 ft 9 1/2 in on the low side. Call it 3.72 m by 2.91 m by 2.55 m, and roughly 114 sq ft (10.6 sq m) of shade. Post-to-post opening on the long side is 10 ft 9 1/4 in.
Ratings, from Backyard Discovery: winds to 100 mph and a snow load of 5,800 lb, about 30 in of snow, when properly anchored. The lumber comes pre-cut, pre-drilled and pre-stained. The roof is corrosion-resistant steel; the hardware is heavy-duty galvanized steel. A PowerPort is built into one post, 3 power outlets plus 3 USB ports, so a fan, a heater or a phone charger plugs in under the roof once you run a cord to it.
Under a 12 by 9.5 roof you get a table for six with the chairs tucked, or a two-seat sofa, two chairs and a coffee table. Backyard Discovery’s own photos show a bistro table for two and a loveseat with room to spare. Two loungers side by side fit along the long axis.
Assembly runs off the BILT 3D app; the parts are pre-cut and pre-drilled. Backyard Discovery doesn’t publish a crew size, an hours figure or a box count for this model, so plan for at least two people and a full day, and treat that as our estimate rather than theirs. Mosquito netting is an optional extra, sold separately.
Delivery: freight. It leaves Camp Verde, Arizona within one business day and typically lands in 3–7 business days; the carrier phones ahead to book a window and someone needs to be there. The cedar cartons are long and heavy, so have a second pair of hands. Count the boxes against the paperwork and photograph any damage before signing. Keep the packaging until it’s built: a return within 90 days needs it.
Backyard Discovery’s warranty, in their words: 5-Year Limited Warranty.
Not included: furniture, string lights, the netting, and the extension cord to feed the PowerPort.

Shipping & Delivery
- Free shipping. Standard shipping is free on every order. No minimum purchase, no threshold to clear, and no shipping line waiting for you at checkout.
- Parcel. Anything a parcel carrier can lift goes out that way. It leaves within 1 business day and is normally at your address 1–3 business days later.
- Freight. The largest structures we sell are past what the parcel network will accept, so they move on a freight carrier instead. Transit runs 3–7 business days, and it shifts with the carrier serving your area and how far you sit from Arizona. The freight company normally calls ahead to agree a delivery window rather than turning up unannounced, and somebody needs to be there to receive it.
- Tracking. The email we send when your order ships carries the tracking number.
- Damaged on arrival? Photograph the damage and email it to us with your order number.
Larry Morris –
I measured twelve times before ordering and this thing fits my existing patio with room to walk around. The cedar smells great and the steel roof handles our rain without any drips off the high side. Took two of us most of a Saturday to put up, and the instructions got a little vague around the roof panels. But the 10 ft 9 opening on the long side is where we sit with coffee in the morning and it’s been dry every time.
