The community has studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments, some with kitchenettes or full kitchens, safety rails, walk-in tubs, and climate controls, and there are also suites and options with covered parking, plus common areas with WiFi, a computer room, a fitness center, exercise classes, and a billiard game room.
