These don’t exist apparently? Was looking to get a speaker or 2 for our patio and they don’t make outdoor ones? Would certainly be in wifi range. They also don’t make any portable ones? Was hoping I could have it charged inside and just carry it outside?

I’d get a Sonos speaker. They have portable ones that would easily do what you want.

Maybe this one? Think it will work for you.

You'll have to supply power for anything. If you just want to go portable, get this

And couple it with something like this if you dont have hand power access.

or

Plus whatever power cable the speaker uses, think it is one of the smallish USB flavors (Mini, Micro, or c).

I was hoping to get something that would integrate seamlessly with our google home system? Set a timer for my grill, play some music, get a reminder, door knob, etc. Have something i can have on the patio or backyard that connects to my stuff inside?

The closest you will get is a Sonos Roam.

They don't make smart speakers for outdoor use. I bought a Homepod mini for this reason last year. While it sounded perfect outside, it stopped working when it got too hot. (I had it covered and everything)

Fortunately it worked again after I brought it inside for a few hours. I got a Sonos Roam to leave outdoors, and it syncs with my other Homepods inside. I'm pretty sure Sonos Roam will work with Google.
