And that’s just a few of the activities available on campus. We also plan trips out to local restaurants and some of the area’s favorite stores and local attractions.

For memory care residents, we offer a program, also known as Clare Bridge, that's rooted in a person-centered approach. This means we help our residents find a sense of belonging and purpose while also helping them preserve who they are and find daily moments of joy. 

And with several floor plans to choose from, including one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments with a balcony, luxury retirement living comes with plenty of options for your next home. Our apartments included these features:

Our campus is all about supporting your independent lifestyle where you can live your best life. You can go for a stroll through our gardens on paved walking paths. If you love gardening and flowers, spend time in our courtyard gardens. When it’s dinnertime, head to the upscale dining room for tasty and nutritious dishes. Our menus are all about you and may include your suggestions, your feedback and even your own family recipes.

With multiple levels of care at our CCRC, you will likely be able to live in the same community, even if you need more care later. You can probably stay in the place you already call home with friends and neighbors nearby and with all the great amenities and services you already enjoy. Best of all, we’re a rental CCRC.
