MHM Communities: Resort-Style 55+ Living Across Florida

For many people, retirement isn’t about slowing down—it’s about finally having the time and freedom to live the way you’ve always imagined. That’s exactly the experience MHM Communities is designed to deliver. As a leading owner and operator of 55+ manufactured home communities—primarily throughout Florida—MHM has built a family of neighborhoods where lifestyle, value, and connection come together in one place. RetireNet

Across the portfolio, MHM focuses on turning traditional manufactured home parks into thoughtfully planned, resort-style communities. That means upgraded roads and lighting, lush landscaping, inviting entrances, secure environments, and modern amenities that encourage residents to stay active and social. Many communities are pet-friendly and anchored by clubhouses that act as the social heart of the neighborhood—home to hobby groups, fitness classes, cards, billiards, and community events. RetireNet

A Lifestyle-First Approach to 55+ Living

At the core of MHM’s philosophy is the belief that your address should support how you want to live today—not how people retired 30 years ago. On Retirenet.com, you’ll see this reflected in the common lifestyle threads that run through each community: 55+ age restriction, active retirement, and a strong emphasis on social connection and wellness. RetireNet

In Ormond Beach, The Falls offers a great example of this lifestyle-driven design. Spread across roughly 141 acres with nearly 600 home sites, the community is laid out like a private park, with green spaces, conservation areas, and winding streets that invite walking or biking. Amenities include a heated pool and spa, clubhouse with Wi-Fi, fitness center, library, dog park, billiards, pickleball and tennis courts, mini-golf, and walking trails—everything needed for an active daily routine without leaving the neighborhood.

This same emphasis on amenities and community life carries across the MHM portfolio. At Foxwood Village in Lakeland, residents enjoy arts and crafts, a fitness center, indoor activities, and a clubhouse in a serene Central Florida environment. RetireNet Holiday Park, also in Lakeland, offers a lively calendar of events supported by an engaging clubhouse, hobby spaces, and plenty of opportunities to mingle with neighbors. RetireNet Whispering Pines in Kissimmee blends a gated, upscale setting with a community center, fitness center, and indoor activities, creating a peaceful yet social environment. RetireNet

Coastal and Waterfront Escapes

Many MHM communities are positioned near Florida’s signature attraction: the water. For retirees who dream of coastal breezes and waterfront sunsets, these locations bring that vision within reach.

Harbor View, in Punta Gorda, is a resort-style 55+ manufactured home community perched near the bay, offering a blend of waterfront and coastal living. Residents enjoy amenities like a community center, arts and crafts, interest groups, golf and fishing opportunities, and an age-restricted environment that supports a quiet, adult-focused lifestyle.

Fairlane Harbor in Vero Beach takes full advantage of its riverfront setting with a gated, waterfront community experience. Here, coastal and oceanfront living meet active retirement, with fishing, a community center, and age-restricted peace of mind. RetireNet

Further north, Treasure Isle Estates in Port Orange and neighboring Maplewood Estates offer resort-style living close to the water. Treasure Isle is ideal both as a winter escape and for year-round residents who want an active, coastal lifestyle; Maplewood Estates adds gated entry and fitness amenities to the mix. RetireNet

Even communities that aren’t directly on the beach, like Twin Palms in Lakeland, benefit from strategic locations. Twin Palms sits between Tampa and Orlando, giving residents easy access to big-city entertainment, airports, and medical centers while still delivering a resort-style, gated 55+ neighborhood with a clubhouse and indoor activities.

Central Florida Clusters and Connected Living

One of the advantages of choosing an MHM community through Retirenet.com is the ability to cluster near family, friends, and favorite destinations. In Central Florida alone, MHM offers several communities within short drives of each other—particularly around Lakeland and the Tampa–Orlando corridor.

Lakeland residents can choose between:

  • Twin Palms – Gated, resort-style 55+ community with a social clubhouse and proximity to shopping, dining, and major highways. RetireNet

  • Foxwood Village – A tranquil, resort-style community with a strong focus on arts, crafts, fitness, and clubhouse activities. RetireNet

  • Holiday Park – An engaging, community-oriented neighborhood with plenty of indoor activities and social events. RetireNet

In Palmetto, residents can choose between Coach House and Country Lakes Village. Coach House combines a gated, resort-style mobile home and RV community with arts and crafts, a fitness center, fishing, and a well-equipped clubhouse. RetireNet Country Lakes Village offers a similar resort-style feel with community center, arts and crafts, fitness, and indoor activities, plus rental home options for those who prefer to “try before they buy” or maintain a more flexible lifestyle. RetireNet

These regional clusters make it easier for friends or extended families to live close to one another while still choosing the specific community that best fits their lifestyle and budget.

A Range of Price Points and Home Options

Another hallmark of MHM Communities is the variety of pricing and home options. On Retirenet.com, listings for these communities show everything from affordable homes in the $30,000s at Treasure Isle Estates and Maplewood Estates to higher-end coastal homes approaching the $300,000s at Fairlane Harbor and Harbor View. RetireNet

Holiday Park and Coach House list very budget-friendly buy-in prices on certain homes or seasonal options, giving snowbirds and value-minded retirees an accessible entry into resort-style 55+ living. RetireNet Meanwhile, communities like Harbor View and Fairlane Harbor offer premium waterfront settings and upgraded homes that appeal to buyers looking for a more upscale retirement residence. RetireNet

MHM also partners with respected homebuilders such as Jacobsen Homes to bring in high-quality, customizable manufactured homes. That means modern floor plans, energy-efficient construction, and stylish finishes that feel every bit like a contemporary single-family home—at a fraction of the price of traditional site-built housing in the same markets. RetireNet

Stability Through the Co-op Conversion Program

Beyond day-to-day amenities and home options, MHM offers something more unusual in the 55+ space: a program specifically designed for resident-owned co-op communities. Under this program, MHM can convert a co-op into a land-lease community with lifetime leases, financial payouts to shareholders, and long-term protections that keep the community age-restricted for decades to come. RetireNet

For many residents, this brings peace of mind. It preserves the 55+ nature of the neighborhood, protects the community from redevelopment pressures, and stabilizes the long-term future of the place they call home. For new buyers, it can mean entering a community where governance and infrastructure are supported by a seasoned professional operator while still maintaining the close-knit feel of a co-op.

Pet-Friendly, People-Focused Neighborhoods

Lifestyle isn’t just about amenities; it’s also about who gets to share them with you. Many MHM communities welcome pets, from small dogs to beloved cats, and several highlight pet-friendly policies right on their Retirenet.com listings—Harbor View and Fairlane Harbor are two examples. RetireNet At The Falls, a dedicated dog park gives four-legged residents a place to run and socialize while their owners connect with neighbors.

Social programming is equally important. Hobby groups, arts and crafts, interest clubs, billiards leagues, and fitness classes all help new residents integrate quickly. It’s common for neighbors to become close friends—organizing potlucks, day trips, golf outings, and volunteer efforts that extend well beyond the community gates. RetireNet
