Homeowner Stories
Our forever home is a masterpiece of taste and elegance. Destination Homes took our dreams and made them a reality! Communication was outstanding throughout the entire process. The team listened to our needs and made sure everything was perfect and it certainly shows in the pride of craftsmanship. The elegant touches throughout from the hidden pantry to the live edge counter on the basement island are a testament to their thoughtful craftsmanship and design. We couldn't love our home more.

GREAT BUILDER!!!
We just completed our new home with Destination Homes. The entire process was great. DJ is very hands on. The communication was great and he was quick to answer any questions that we had. Building our house for the first time seemed a little overwhelming but DJ walked us through everything and helped us with selecting interior and exterior finishes. I have been in construction for 15+ years and the finishes Destination Homes uses are above and beyond.
We HIGHLY RECOMMEND Destination Homes!!

Jumped into our first “Forever Home” with Destination. DJ with Destination Homes was awesome and was even pointing out things he wanted to address at the final walk through. The simple things like recessed from the floor cabinets, ball bearing door hinges, and islands with cabinets and storage on both sides were upgrades built into the price that made this house extra special. We couldn’t be more happy with our decision.
