Pure Luxury

“Call me spoiled - but I love to be treated like a queen when traveling. Only the best is good enough for me. Hotels that make my vacation a dream of luxury and seduction are my choices. Pay attention to the (violet Medal) for luxury accommodation.”

Sustainable Travel

“There is only one earth and we should go out and see it. I like hotels, which look for sustainability. It is not only protecting the ecology, but also taking care for the local business and culture. I recommend the medal for eco accomodation. Let’s protect our earth. Sustainable travel is travelling with responsibility.”

Markus Lenk, Düsseldorf, Germany

Mount Laurel offers several distinct reasons to visit: Paulsdale and Jacob’s Chapel represent different historical themes, the Rancocas Woods Farmers Market features locally made products, and The Funplex offers indoor and outdoor attractions. If you’re looking for accommodation in Mount Laurel, it helps to first decide what you want to focus on during your stay. This lets you choose your destination based on the interests that bring you to Mount Laurel.

History with two distinct themes

Paulsdale is a National Historic Landmark and is significant as the home of renowned women’s rights activist Alice Stokes Paul. A guided visit includes access to the “Alice Paul: In Pursuit of Equality” exhibit as well as time to explore the historic grounds on your own. Alice Paul and the historic site are thus at the heart of the visit, making Paulsdale a clear focus for a trip centered on cultural history.

Jacob’s Chapel offers a different historical perspective. The chapel was built in 1867 and is among the oldest African Methodist Episcopal Church (AME) churches in the region. Its year of construction and status as one of the oldest AME churches provide two points of reference: the chapel’s origins and its place in regional church history. Unlike Paulsdale, the focus here is not a named individual and an exhibit, but architectural history and a church tradition.

Local products and recreational activities

The Rancocas Woods Farmers Market in Mount Laurel is a place to buy locally made products and is part of a locally focused food and business network. This connection to the network distinguishes the market from the historic sites: the focus is on local goods and their connection to food and business activities. If you’d also like to base your travel plans on locally made products, the market offers a distinct point of interest in Mount Laurel.

The Funplex in Mount Laurel spans 25 acres and offers indoor and outdoor attractions, including rides, go-karts, water attractions, and bumper boats. The variety of attractions caters to different interests and offers more than one type of recreation. When deciding what to do, it’s helpful to consider two questions: Which of these types of attractions interests you most, and will the indoor or outdoor offerings be a deciding factor in your plans? The available attractions may change; check the current selection before your visit, especially if a particular activity is important to your plans.

Choose among these destinations based on what you want to experience: Paulsdale connects Alice Paul with the historic grounds, Jacob’s Chapel offers a distinct focus on the history of an AME church, the market features locally made products, and The Funplex offers several types of attractions.
