Thank you for the feedback! We appreciate it very much. We hope you had lots of fun grilling out with the family during your stay. While we totally agree that grilling on the back deck is more convenient, we have seen vacation homes catch fire due to grilling on the deck. We ask our guests to please not attempt to use moveable outdoor grills on decks, porches, or near wooded areas. Grilling is only permitted when the grill is secured on a stable, non-flammable surface, such as concrete. Grills must be always attended when in use. We want all our guests stay safe while on vacation :) ~Avon Management
