Ive been wanting to figure out a way to hang in my back yard for about a year. I was anchoring to my sons swing set and then to the house. It was a terrible angle because it was a 41' stretch. As you all know its very difficult to sleep well when your angle is so wrong. I wanted to just put two posts in the ground but the wife wasn't having it. It took me a while to work it out but I finally thought about a pergola after seeing a few pictures on the interweb. Ive always thought pergola's were kind of dumb. They're some of the most useless structures I can think of. Whats the point in having a roof if you still get rained on? Anyways, I proceeded to convince my wife it would increase our home value and it would look good and all that good stuff. The final result was the most expensive hammock stand I could imagine. After I got it built, I told my wife "You know, I can put eye hooks in the posts and hang my hammock". She said, "Great Idea!!!!" Now that the pergola is a hammock stand, I no longer believe they're useless. I love them.
