Deck the House Contest: This House Could Win $100,000 for Coventry Schools

This Coventry house is one of the 24 finalists in Patch’s Deck the House contest. Vote now to help this entry win $100,000 for Coventry schools.

Could this be the best “decked” house in the country? Possibly. Congratulations to Tyler Horrocks, the mastermind behind the Crazy Christmas House for being chosen as one of the 24 finalists in our Deck the House contest! According to users who voted in our annual Deck the House contest, this home in Wood Estates has the best holiday lights in town. Check out the spectacular video here.  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 larger-than-life, animated Santa to holiday lights so bright they could blind the neighbors.

Check Out Portsmouth Entries in Patch's 'Deck the House' Contest!

Did you vote for your favorite Portsmouth house, yet?

A total of three Portsmouth houses have been entered in Patch's "Deck the House" contest, and there's still time to enter!  A little friendly competition never hurts, especially when there’s $100,000 on the line! So if you think your holiday decorations are the best in town, upload a picture of your house and enter our Deck the House Contest. And don’t worry about all those lights racking up the utility bill because if you’re voted a finalist Patch will give you up to $500 to cover the expense. We know some of you out there may have decorations up that aren’t as extravagant as these. That’s OK! We’d still love to have a photo of your house in the gallery so we can show how Portsmouth has awesome holiday spirit. Have fun and happy holidays!
