RV Parking With Retaining Wall
 

Here's a great way to use a retaining wall to create additional yard space or recreation vehicle parking.

As you can see the yard used to slope into this new driveway about 6 feet. Building a small retaining wall from the front yard to the backyard, gave these people and additional 6 feet of backyard, while providing them with a storage area for a boat or RV parking.

Building a retaining wall could be quite expensive. Make sure you get an estimate from a local contractor before getting too excited about your extra yard space.
