Work on Your Bucket List, Not Your To-Do List
Every day is a new opportunity to live the life you love, and shed the responsibilities you don’t. No more mowing, shoveling or spending time in the kitchen (unless you want to!). Maintenance-free living is enhanced even more with a selection of concierge services such as dining and housekeeping. Choose the services you need so you have time to join others in their favorite community pastimes that include clubs, games, computer courses, volunteer opportunities, tai chi, outings and more.
At the hub of campus life is the community center, which features conveniences that enhance daily life. Outdoor community highlights include patios, gazebos, individual gardening plots where you can grow your own produce, and walking trails complete with restored cannons for serene strolls.
