GHH Haven
World of Warcraft's housing system invites endless creativity, but without a built-in way to remember the incredible homes you stumble upon, those discoveries can slip away. GHH Haven changes that entirely. This addon acts as your personal housing archive, automatically recording every player-created home you enter and giving you powerful tools to browse, rate, and organize them. Whether you are a decorator seeking inspiration, a contest judge, or simply an explorer who loves to wander through neighborhoods, GHH Haven ensures no memorable build is ever lost again.
Why GHH Haven Is a Must-Have for Housing Enthusiasts
Imagine walking into a breathtaking tavern, a cozy cottage, or a meticulously themed workshop. With GHH Haven, that moment is captured forever. The addon silently logs the home's owner, realm, neighborhood, plot, and even your visit history. You can then add personal notes, star ratings, and custom tags to build a rich, searchable library. It is like giving World of Warcraft's housing system a photographic memory, and it works seamlessly across Retail, Classic, TBC, WotLK, Cataclysm, and MoP game versions, ensuring compatibility no matter which era you call home.
How to Install GHH Haven
Getting started is straightforward. First, download GHH Haven from your preferred addon source. Once you have the folder, extract it into your World of Warcraft Interface/AddOns directory. For a truly hassle-free experience, many players use the foxygame.net launcher, which offers a one-click install for GHH Haven and keeps it updated automatically alongside your other addons. After installation, simply log into any character, and Haven will begin recording your housing visits immediately. The minimap button provides quick access to your archive, and you can configure save prompts and screenshot preferences to match your playstyle.
Core Features That Make GHH Haven Shine
Automatic House Library
Every time you step into a player home, GHH Haven can automatically capture essential details: the owner's name, realm, neighborhood, plot number, house level, faction zone, and the date of your visit. Your own home is tracked separately, so you can monitor your exploration progress without cluttering your library. The addon even records total visit counts, helping you identify the most popular builds on your server.
Powerful Search and Organization
Finding a specific house is effortless. GHH Haven includes a robust text search, favorites, custom tags, and neighborhood filters. A two-row filter bar and floating tag panel let you combine criteria with AND/OR logic. You can sort your library by owner, rating, decor score, screenshots, and more. Built-in tag categories like Race, Class, Theme, and Holiday make it easy to categorize homes, and you can always create your own labels for complete flexibility.
Detailed House Profiles
Each saved home gets its own information panel where you can view metadata, edit tags, add private notes, assign star ratings, and record decor scores. You can highlight standout features, add homes to custom collections, and review your full visit history. This turns every entry into a rich, personal record that grows more valuable as your library expands.
Screenshot Tools
Documenting beautiful builds is a breeze. GHH Haven's Compact Screenshot Mode automatically hides your UI and character, captures a clean image, and restores everything afterward. You can log screenshot sessions and take reference pictures without the usual manual hassle, making it perfect for sharing inspiration or keeping a visual diary of your travels.
Interactive Plot Map and Statistics
Visualize your exploration with an interactive plot map that displays all 55 plots, a heatmap of your progress, and multiple exploration tiers. Your own home is highlighted, and a live legend helps you track geographic locations. Detailed statistics show houses saved, total visits, neighborhoods explored, most visited home, and weekly activity. As your library grows, you earn collectible badges at milestones like 5, 50, 100, and beyond, adding a gamified layer to your housing adventures.
Seamless Compatibility Across World of Warcraft Versions
GHH Haven is built to work wherever you play. Whether you are deep in Retail, reliving the nostalgia of Classic, progressing through The Burning Crusade, conquering Wrath of the Lich King, facing the challenges of Cataclysm, or exploring the mysteries of Mists of Pandaria, this addon integrates smoothly. Its lightweight design ensures it never impacts performance, and all data is stored locally in your SavedVariables folder, so your archive stays private and secure. If you ever need to reinstall or switch computers, the built-in backup and restore feature makes migration painless.
Perfect for Housing Contests and Community Events
GHH Haven excels as a judging companion. When evaluating contest entries or touring guild showcases, you can keep detailed notes, assign consistent ratings, and organize entries into dedicated collections. The screenshot tools ensure you capture every entry under the same conditions, making comparisons fair and easy. Many housing communities already rely on GHH Haven for World of Warcraft events, and its account-wide data means all your characters contribute to the same archive.
Frequently Asked Questions About GHH Haven

What if a plot or neighborhood shows as "Unknown"? This can happen right after zoning. Revisiting the home or reloading the UI usually fixes it.
