Best Wooden Porch Swings: View our Top 20 for your Outdoor Sanctuary

A porch swing is a bundle of happiness that never fails to remind you of a beautiful childhood memory spent with loved ones. It takes you back to the many summers spent with friends swinging, with the gentle breeze fanning your cheeks.

Kick back a little harder, and the laughter gets a little louder. It brings out the child in you. They say a swing is not just a piece of furniture, it's a state of mind. The comfortable lounging, the gentle motion of swinging back and forth, and the warmth it provides when the joy of nostalgia steps in, is priceless.

The desire to retain a delightful experience breathes in the search for the perfect porch swing. Below is a list of wooden bench swings that you might consider hanging on your porch or any preferred spot in your outdoor spaces.

The Charming Bench Company wooden Porch Swing selection comes in several variations: Cedar, Teak, Cypress, Pine, Hickory, and Oak, so you’re guaranteed to find the best porch swing for you.

Cedar or Western Red Cedar. Famed for its naturally incredible wood grain and classified as hardwood, which is resistant to rot, decay, and insects. It'll help your swing last longer and require less maintenance over its lifetime. Unlike many other kinds of wood, red cedar has a natural beauty with its crisp, luxurious tonal properties. Cedarwood furniture is an heirloom piece whether used indoors or outdoors.

Teak.Identified as hardwood due to its hardness and resilience. Teak is highly dense, durable, and has a high oil & wax content. It is naturally resistant to water, mildew, fungus, and most wood-eating insects. Also, teak grows without synthetic fertilizers and heavy irrigation, making it an eco-friendly choice. There is no need for preservatives, paint, or varnish. Its natural oils form a barrier against potential harmful elements.

Cypress.It can easily be identified due to its gradient tones of light, yellowish-brown color. It has straight grains with a medium texture, is rot-resistant, and is a natural insect repellent. It is also referred to as "Eternal Wood", which means it will last and age with you.

Pine wood.It is generally more lightweight than the others. This wood is excellent if you desire a more rustic look. It accepts paint and stain very well. It ages well, and it resists shrinking and swelling over time. Pine must be sealed when outdoors.

Hickory. It stands out due to its unique combination of strength, hardness, and toughness missing in any other species. It's recognized as a highly durable wood, thought to be able to withstand nearly anything. Hickory is the second hardest hardwood species in North America.

Oak.It is highly durable, easy to work with, and stunning stained or with a clear, natural finish. It's also one of the most efficient woods to burn. Oakwood is prized in furniture-making, flooring, and cabinetry because of its durability, workability, and natural beauty.
