Check Out the Best "Decked" House in Southington!

You voted and this house was the top local vote-getter in our Deck the House contest.

Who has the best “decked” house in Southington?

According to users who voted in our annual Deck the House contest, this home on Strawberry Lane belonging to Dean and Cheryl Woodruff, one of two in that area that go all out to make sure passerbys enjoy the season, has the best holiday lights in Southington.

We had tons of national entries in this year’s Deck the House contest and in our quest to find the most over-the-top holiday decorations in the country, we’ve seen everything from a life-size Santa to holiday lights so bright that you need sunglasses to pass by, even at night.

We loved showcasing everyone’s holiday spirit, but Deck the House isn’t over yet. We’re still looking for the one home so spectacularly decorated that it could be the national grand prize winner of our contest.

We will choose 24 finalists from all our entries across the country. From Dec. 18 - Dec. 27, vote for your favorite and that person could win $100,000 for his or her local school district.

All you have to do is visit this page to browse a gallery of the finalists and cast your vote beginning Dec. 18. On Dec. 28, we’ll announce the grand prize winner of our Deck the House contest.

Of course, if you already know you want to vote for the Woodruff home, you can do so by visiting this page to go right to their entry - but why wouldn't you want to take a look at all the holiday spirit?

So, now’s your chance to tell us who has the best “decked” house in the country. Let us know by voting for your favorite beginning Dec. 18.
