Hi Wanda, It is hard to know without seeing the your yard, but this landscape was built on a pretty steep slope and has made great use of the property. Do you have a a picture that you could send me and I can pass it along to one of our designers. We can give you our best guess based on what we see. Where are you located?
Absolutely. Retaining walls either below or above or both will help you realize a flat area. Steps are a way to deal with moving across the slope, as needed.
A key question is how much space you want/need for your patio/fire pit. The slope in the image looks fairly workable, but the trees and their roots will be a factor. The larger the area, the more you'll carve into the hillside, or have to build up to support the patio. The patio in the picture you originally posted seems in scale to the slope in your own photo. It is a small patio, suitable for a family hangout but maybe not a large party.
I have a septic tank drainage which I must consider. All of your suggestions are very appreciated. The first recommendation from you regarding the retaining walls on both sides make the area very workable. Unfortunately I don't have a photograph that displays the area that the fire pit will work with the walls. Thank you for your sketch, I am sure it will help.
