HGTV takes advantage of the convenience of home improvement shows to become an entire network dedicated to real estate shows. There is certainly some form of charm in seeing a run down, boring house being converted into something that could be taken out of an art book. Perhaps it is the nature of OCD within each of us that home improvement shows “fixing” by turning evil into good or unclean into tidy. While home improvement shows are of various kinds, they typically revolve around people’s primary residential property. However, vacation homes are a whole different ball game. This is exactly what the “Vacation Home Rules” address.
Vacation homes have totally different requirements. Also, those seen on TV or in other places can be quite pious. Therefore, HGTV’s âVacation Home Rulesâ show how the dream vacation home can be achieved at minimal cost. The show depicts a common roadmap that can be used to convert boring homes into full-fledged, photogenic vacation homes.
The show is hosted by real estate expert Scott McGillivray. He has several years of experience in real estate and renovations to his credit which he puts to good use in the show. Other shows he has appeared on include “Buyers Bootcamp”, “Scott’s House Call”, “Canada’s Handyman Challenge” and “Home to Win”. The full title of âVacation Home Rulesâ is âScott’s Vacation Home Rulesâ.
Scott’s Vacation Home Rules Filming Locations
‘Scott’s Vacation House Rules’ is a real estate and home improvement program. Therefore, it focuses on the properties that are reversed. Thus, the show is filmed in the transforming properties. Therefore, it is only natural for viewers to wonder where these properties are located. Where is the filming of the show taking place? Here are some of the locations where filming for the show took place:
Haliburton Highlands, Ontario
The first episode of the series was filmed in the Haliburton Highlands. Here Scott transforms a family home into a Bavarian-style guesthouse. According to local sources, Above Board Carpentry provided local talent for the show.
Muskoka, Ontario
Apparently, the filming appears to have been done in Muskoka, Canada as well. Here, the seventh episode of the series was filmed.
Wasaga Beach, Ontario
In this Canadian town, Scott completely overturns the aesthetic of a dilapidated party rug. It converts it into a mid-century inspired vacation spot for the eighth episode. Take a look at the following photo and video uploaded by Scott from the show:
