About the host
Hosted by Becky Watford

We are a family of Florida natives who reside in South Florida but live to escape to "The Lake House". I spent my youth bouncing between Miami-Dade County (the location of my parents' jobs and my school) and Highlands County, where we spent weekends and summers (when my public-school-teacher parent was off-duty). When I had kids, I yearned for them to be raised in the same care-free, rural, nature-filled environment that I was privileged to have experienced. In the year of my 40th birthday, my husband and I were lucky enough to find this unique property, and the rest is history. We have spent birthdays, holidays, and countless other "lake escapes" with family and friends here. This is where my kids played hide-and-seek, climbed trees, built sand castles, and learned to fish and water ski. It is our "happy place", where we come to feed our souls. We hope you enjoy our lake house as much as we have and still do.
