By Sandra Grauschopf, About.com Guide

Every year, the Home and Garden Network gives away an amazing prize package including a dream house that was built on their cable television channel, an amazing vehicle, and much, much more. Here is some information about the past and present HGTV Dream Homes and their winners.

1999 HGTV Dream Home Winner - Rosemary Beach, Florida

The 1999 HGTV Dream Home was built on the pristine beaches of Rosemary Beach, FL. The architecture of the surrounding area reflects the beautiful designs found in cities like New Orleans, Saint Augustine, and the Caribbean. The house includes unusual features like a roof that is custom-designed to keep the house cool despite the Florida heat and an outdoor room that is just as beautifully furnished as any of the interior areas.

1998 HGTV Dream Home Winner - Beaufort, South Carolina

The second HGTV Dream Home was located in Beaufort, South Carolina, one of the oldest communities in the state. The area is known for history and its deep Southern charm. That charm is reflected in the design of the Dream Home, which includes three elegant porches and a light and airy interior design.

Winner of the 1998 HGTV Dream Home Giveaway: Tina Carlson of Thousand Oaks, California was selected as the winner from among 2.5 million entries - more than double the number of entries from the year before.

1997 HGTV Dream Home Winner - Jackson Hole, Wyoming

Jackson Hole, Wyoming was known for such exciting features as being the home of the world's largest ball of barbed wire as well as for its excellent skiing and winter sports. In 1997, however, it made history by being the site of the first HGTV Dream Home. HGTV calls the first Dream Home a "warm and cozy Western retreat" with spectacular views of the Grand Teton Mountains. In order to ensure that the Dream Home would stand up to the tough Jackson Hole winters, all of the elements for the solid log house were fabricated in Finland and shipped to Wyoming.

Winner of the 1997 Dream Home Giveaway: Michele Rambo of Tulsa, Oklahoma
