Craig Conover's backyard is the ultimate haven, with a massive pool and hot tub, beautiful gardens, and more. While we've seen Craig show it off on social media, the Southern Charm cast member recently revealed something surprising about his outdoor space.

During a November 3 Instagram question and answer session, one user asked Craig if he kept his pool and jacuzzi open all year versus just in the hotter summer months. 

"I know it's crazy but Charleston is southern enough to leave it open all year," Craig revealed over a nighttime photo of his cozy outdoor area. "I don't even think there's a way to cover mine."

Though Craig was answering a question about his pool and backyard, we couldn't help but obsess over the photo of the area. The spacious backyard includes both the enormous glowing pool and large jacuzzi as well as plenty of outdoor seating and space for entertaining. Craig even hung several strings of lights over the whole area, granting it even more of a serene feeling at night. 

Craig Conover's Backyard Additions

Craig is incredibly proud of his backyard renovation, which includes more than just a pool. 

In a September interview with Life & Style magazine, the Delaware native declared, “I basically built everything that makes me happy,” sure to mention his backyard beehive boxes and impressive garden which has flowers, vegetables, and herbs.

Earlier in the summer, we caught up with Craig (and his girlfriend, Paige DeSorbo) as they set up those beehive boxes. "Getting ready for our [honey bees]," Craig wrote over an Instagram Story which showed Paige painting a few boxes a light pink color to prep for some backyard beekeeping

Then, in a June 7 Instagram post, Craig showed himself setting up those boxes and tending to his blooming garden. "Our family is growing," Craig captioned the carousel of photos which showcased the stunning details of his backyard. "Getting their bedroom set up[.]" 

 

Back in 2017, Craig shared in an interview with Decider that he's “always been fascinated” with gardening. “Fortunately, my parents were real supportive with whatever I’d do. They let me go dig an 8x8 plot in our backyard in our sandy soil in Delaware and tried planting stuff," he shared.
