Friendly Reminder: Holiday Decoration Guidelines

Dear Neighbors,

As the holiday season approaches, we wanted to send a friendly reminder about our community’s holiday decoration policy so everyone can enjoy the festivities without any unexpected issues.

Per our HOA guidelines, homeowners may display a reasonable number of holiday decorations and lighting beginning no more than 30 days prior to a publicly observed holiday or religious observance, and decorations must be removed within 20 days after the holiday.

To help you plan, here are the display windows for this year’s major holidays:

HolidayDisplay StartMust Be Removed By
Halloween (Oct. 31)October 1, 2026November 20, 2026
Thanksgiving (Nov. 26)October 27, 2026December 16, 2026
Hanukkah (Dec. 4–12)November 4, 2026January 1, 2027
Christmas (Dec. 25)November 25, 2026January 14, 2027

We share this simply as a friendly heads-up — our goal is to help everyone stay in compliance and avoid violation notices, not to dampen anyone’s holiday spirit! We know how much joy festive lights and decorations bring to our community, and we want to make sure everyone gets to enjoy them fully within these windows.

If you have any questions about the policy or need clarification on your specific situation, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our CAM, Rachel Wood, at Specialty Management.

Thank you for helping us keep our community looking wonderful for every season!

Warm regards,

Mabel Bridge HOA Board
