The community contains the subdivisions of Holiday Shores, Royal Hills, Imperial Woods, Wellington Villa, Cambridge Shores, Indian Hills, Sherwood Forest, and Seneca Hills.

History

Many of the older houses in the community were built in the early 1960s, as was the dam that created Lake Holiday. In March 1993, the Montgomery County Circuit Court approved a district plan that reorganized the governance of the community into two major bodies:

· The Lake Holiday Conservancy District Board of Directors, which owns and is responsible for the lake, dam, boat ramps, parks, clubhouse, drainage, and maintenance building.[5]

· The Board of the Lake Holiday Property Owners Association, which maintains the roads and is responsible for housing and lot developments.[5] The Property Owners Association is a tax-exempt entity.[6]

According to its website, the Lake Holiday area now "covers 750 acres, has 780 property owners, 369 homes, and 1,296 privately owned lots. The lake itself covers 150 acres and has an average depth of 10 feet with depths up to 20 feet near the dam. There are many miles of shoreline along the lake and approximately 16 miles of roadway."[7]

The clubhouse hosts community breakfasts, regular card-playing events of a social nature, Easter egg hunts, and other seasonal activities.[8] There is a crappie fishing tournament on the lake each May. In summer, bass fishing tournaments are held on Thursdays (weather permitting).[9]
