Do I need a gazebo with sides?

It's up to you! Some gazebos come with sides, while others offer them as an optional add-on. Side panels can provide privacy, protection from insects, and extra shade. You can choose from solid panels for the most privacy and protection from the elements, mesh panels, which provide good ventilation and protection from insects, or removable panels, which give you the flexibility to adjust the level of privacy and protection as needed.

Can a gazebo be left up all year?

It depends! Some gazebos are specifically designed for year-round use. Look for aluminum frames and heavy-duty fabrics that can withstand snow and ice. Remember that even year-round gazebos might benefit from winterizing, like removing snow build-up.
