There is a Dream House in Chattanooga!
Many of you have voted for Tennessee’s fourth largest city as the site for HGTV’s Dream Home 2008.
“I love Lookout Mountain in Chattanooga! It’s beautiful there and a home overlooking the Tennessee River and the valley below is awesome!”
And some have even claimed to have seen the home being built on HGTV. But don’t confuse the HGTV series Dream House with the HGTV Dream Home. It is true that the new season of Dream House (Sundays at 10pm e/p on HGTV), follows a young couple building a home overlooking Chattanooga. But it’s not HGTV Dream Home 2008.
And remember, you only have two more days to enter for a chance to win this year’s HGTV Dream Home in Winter Park, Colorado. The giveaway ends this Friday at 5pm ET, and you can enter once a day until then!

I would like to see the next home made in Alaska and or Vermont or Maine. I am sure there are some beautiful places there to have a wonder view.
My vote is for the Blue Ridge Mtns! Beautiful!
I love Missouri Ozarks, the Jacks Fork River, and Eminence, Missouri, tiny town, beautiful country.
How about an HGTV home near Knoxville, TN? There are lots of activities near and in Knoxville, for instance: Dollywood has activities for all seasons of the year and nestled in the Great Smokey Mountains. Train rides, amusement parks, helicopter rides, lakes and rivers nearby…also in the winter, skiing and other winter sports. And talk about a view! WOW! I believe it would be a wonderful place for that 2008 HGTV Dream Home to be built!
Hey! Here’s an idea. Instead of building a new dream house, renovate and update one of the beautiful old houses in Charleston, SC. Don’t forget about the few of us whose dream house would be an updated classic.
I would like a dream home on Pewaukee Lake in Pewaukee/Delafield, Wisconsin..That is a gorgeous place to have a year round home to enjoy the summer and winter activities on the lake
I would like to see the HGTV Dream home in Montana, becouse,its beautiful place, land mountain,sky blue and fresh water with hunting ,fishing, skiing all most year round a loge cabin would be beautiful. and keep the good work.
How about giving the West coast a try, 7 of the 10 dream homes have been on the eastern side of the US. WA has a nice town called Bremerton, it’s just across the penninsula from Seattle. Sounds like a nice place to live and the view looks awesome….check it out.
A different state than before. Florida has been represented twice. And other than Florida, the southern states have been represented three times.
Snowskiing out west has been around twice. Northwest and Northeast extremes, one each. Texas once. So something around the Great Lakes, or middle America would be great. There are several beautiful states (like Pennsylvania) that could use a showcase. New Mexico, Arizona or Nevada would be different. The Indian painting in the office of 2007 looked like a Sioux, and that leads me to think Southwest. It must be difficult to assess the cost of the land/construction, type of house and community to offer, and the consumer interest it will generate for each location. Then, to figure out which of the final locations/ideas is the best. But, you have always thrilled me with all your choices in the past, so I am really interested in the 2008.
Hawaii!!! That would be a dream home to everyone! The beaches are beautiful and there is so much to do!
Michigan is a Nice place in northern Michigan .
A BEACH HOUSE IN WILMINGTON,NORTH CAROLINA,IT IS BEAUTIFUL THERE.I LIVE IN KNOXVILLE AND THANKS TO EVERYONE FOR THE NICE COMMEENTS ON OUR STATE.
TN is a great place…………….
I love the mountains of Tennessee. A house there would truly be a dream.
Somewhere overlooking the Smoky Mountains…
The area of the Mississippi River is gorgeous expecially in the summertime. Water for fishing, cliffs for privacy and viewing Bald Eagles, closeness to shopping and entertainment. My vote would be for a gorgeous view of the Mississippi River from Iowa or Missouri. Maybe on the Missouri River. Must be water nearby. Central U.S. Needs a DREAM HOME!
YOU ARE REALLY MISSING OUT ON ALOT OFF HISTORY NOT BUILDING ON LOOKOUT MTN,POINT PARK IS ON THE MTN WHERE THE SOUTH FOUGHT OFF THE NORTHERN TROOPS AND KEPT THEM FROM TAKING CONTROL OF THE MTN.YOU ARE ONLY 15 MINS AWAY FROM FT OGELTHORP
WHERE THE CHICKAMAUGA BATTEL TOOK PLACE AND MANY MEN FRON THE NORTH AND THE SOUTH DIED.IT IT A NATIONAL PARK NOW WITH CONNONS THAT WERE LEFT BEHIND HAVE BEEN KEPT JUST LOOK UP THE BATTEL OF CHICKAMAUGA IN THE CIVIL WAR
Chattanooga’s Lookout mountain is gorgeous.
I thought Memphis I have changed of heart now that my granddaughter may go to college in California in about a year so it California I hope she will be happy with this.Bennett
We have some gorgeous mountains here in Georgia as well as beautiful beaches, why not build where the climate is ideal,the food is wonderful, and the people are oh sooo friendly!
It would be nice to have a Dream Home in Pennsylvania. Our state has some beautiful mountains.

To Scripps! A Thank You… The big day is coming up so fast… Sunday! I can fill the energy surround us… this has been allot of fun… no doubt life can be full of sorrow… hope sometimes lost…
I come here to fcole’s blog and just let go for a moment or two of the reality of real life… be silly, delve into the treasure hunt… someone is really on cloud nine… or soon to be. If science could only bottle what these very blessed people will feel in that moment of sheer life altering to the depths of ones soul… cellular burst no doubt…
Only other comparison in my mind, heart, spirit, the very first time a mother holds and caresses her new born baby in her arms… this energy that captivates each of us… suddenly life begins to makes sense… a transition takes place… we become womanly… a nurturer a mommies kiss to the fore head of her precious Heavenly Gift… We are never the same ever! The love is so profound… those very few moment in our lives when we experience what it feels like to be truly grateful… blessed… over whelming emotion begins to overflow our hearts… true definition of Love…
Being so thankful there really are no words… a radiant light within each of us given at birth… from a mommies kiss to our forehead… that energy that radiant energy is passed on… which lives deep inside… sadly life’s suffering can drain us and dim our lights… this planet is blessed with many souls… so loving and giving with a touch a prayer a chance given to us through another’s generosity…. I want to take this time to say Thank You Scripps… HGTV Dream Home… I also know Scripps does so much in areas we have no idea the money donated to charities… all the people they employee research… truly they give back… without giving one second of self acknowledgement….
Scripps I see… words don’t need to explain… Your Bright Radiant Light Shines From Within… You could never hide it… the energy you spread is contagious… After this Sunday’s Grand Faunally… just seeing those winners… I too will walk away feeling the energy… my own lights shining brighter… Because you truly do make Dreams Come True!! Thank you from my family to yours! Charlotte, Zachariah, & Benjamin…
Now on that note… I still have six more days to flirt shamelessly with your adorable… Great Hire by the way!!! Jack Thomasson… My Moondoggy… just when you thought it was safe!! Ohhhh Moondoggy… you just make me get all disconbubbled! To be continued….
YA KNOW I HAVE LIVED IN TENN AND AT THE BEACH NOW THE MOUNTAINS THERE ALOT MORE OUT THERE THAN THESE THREE THINGS WENT WEST ONCE AND THE IS NO PLACE LIKE THE RED MOUNTAINS AND DESERT OUT THERE BUT I WOULD LOVE TO SEE ONE BUILT TO MOVE ANY PLACE YOU WOULD LIKE TO LIVE DREAM RV….BRING IT ON THAT WAY YOU COULD SEE THE USA IN STYLE

HI, from Tennessee.
We have a great state,a home here would be great.
The mountains of North Carolina would also be great.Thanks for all the work that goes into
the Dream Home.
My hometown is Chattanooga. After many travels around the world and nationally Chattanooga is definitely the most blissful place to live. The people are honest and have that home country love and the land is emontionally touching, the most beautiful city I have ever seen(Cape Town, South Africa may beat it). It would be MY dream to live there again in this Dream House!
HI, from Chattanooga Tennessee -middle valley / hixson tn near chester frost state park would be the best place to build a home it is a beautiful location has great schools and everything near by .Middle valley is the county so the taxs are lower most people around here don’t like driving on the mountain that is another reason MV/ hixson is better.
Build the next Dream Home in a beautiful location BUT near enough to a city where there are jobs! The Islamadora Keys is slim to nothing for employment. Unless you already have a large next egg there is no hope to live in the home if you win it because you can’t relocate there and find a job.
Likely somewhere in the Tennessee Valley region. That could be anywhere from East Tennessee, Alabama, or even Middle Tennessee. Great place to live and taxes are low (especially in Alabama). Lots of water. Good Folks. Slower way of life. I still like the house on Islamorada though. Hope my wife wins. She is ready to retire in July and would be a hoot to surprise her at work. That would be an interesting show. I enter the contest regularly also but I’m already semi retired and I think it would be impossible to ambush me. I think the wife would make for a great show. Anyway keep building the great houses.
