Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Margaret Brock
I have a deep love for community and design and enjoy sharing the places that have come to mean so much to my husband and I. I am a designer, married to Jeff - a meticulous builder - and together we find great joy in restoring found homes that simply need a little love. We've shared our homes for many years and excited to add Myrtle to our collection. We hope you love the house and the town of Howey-in-the-Hills as much as we do.
Why they chose this property
We spend our weekends on the Harris Chain of Lakes, drawn to the close-knit community, Florida’s uncommon rolling hills, and the character of the small lake towns—rich with festivals, markets, and timeless old-Florida charm.
What makes this property unique
This fully renovated home is just steps from the lake and walking trail, perched high on one of Howey’s hillside streets. It’s an ideal upscale option for guests attending weddings at nearby venues—perfect for staying close with a larger group or simply enjoying more space and amenities than a traditional hotel. A lakeside restaurant is easily accessed by the fully charged golf cart available for guest use. The home offers premium appliances and modern amenities, including an EV charging station. Outside, enjoy a large private backyard with a firepit, screened porch, and new grill. The rare double-wide driveway—hard to find on Howey’s original streets—allows parking for two fishing rigs, a major advantage for tournament visitors.
