Looking for the Best Christmas Lights in your area? Take a look at my list of the beautiful homes decorated in the Tri-County area. Grab a piece of paper, your GPS and Click HERE to go to the list and plan your night to look at beautiful Christmas Lights in South Florida. I was not able to find many houses in Dade County- although I know they are out there.
