Our SUITES.
Because you deserve the suite life.
Beautiful. Spacious. Convenient. Safe.
When we design our suites, we take out time to think about what is most important to our Community Members. For example, our spacious suites include walk-in closets, because we appreciate how important storage is when moving from a larger home. Our kitchenettes feature 23" wide apartment size appliances instead of smaller bar-fridge models because we know that sometimes you just want to prepare a snack for the grandchildren instead of heading over to the dining room. Plus, our bathrooms feature a walk-in shower with a built-in seat and safety bars so you can bathe with peace-of-mind.
All suites include the following:
- Personal control of heating and air conditioning
- Kitchenette with 23" wide apartment size appliances and microwave (Independent Living suites only)
- Private bathroom featuring walk-in shower with built-in seat & safety bars
- Emergency call button system
- Spacious walk-in closet
- Large windows with window treatments included
- Neutral suite finishes to let your personal style shine
