A Legacy of 55+ Community Living

Holiday Village and Holiday Village East were developed by J.S. Hovnanian & Sons, one of New Jersey's most respected builders of active adult communities.

Holiday Village, the original community, features single-family patio homes and carriage-style attached homes — all thoughtfully designed for low-maintenance living. Holiday Village East expanded on that vision, offering a mix of condominiums, carriage homes, and detached patio homes across a beautifully landscaped setting with 12 lakes.

Together, the two communities house over 1,100 households in the heart of Mount Laurel Township, Burlington County. Residents enjoy easy access to I-295, the New Jersey Turnpike, Route 38, and Route 73 — putting Philadelphia, the Jersey Shore, and Atlantic City all within comfortable day-trip distance.

The communities are governed by active homeowners associations that maintain common areas, landscaping, and amenities — giving residents more time to enjoy the lifestyle they've earned.
