Cannonwood Village

Cannonwood Village sits in Tiger, surrounded by the gentle peaks of the Northeast Georgia mountains, near local restaurants, stores, and medical centers, and the restored home of Jabel Cannon serves as the social center where folks can gather and relax in a setting that feels comfortable and homey with an easy living style, and you'll see personal care apartments and independent apartments, both furnished, with options for private, shared, studio, or wheelchair-accessible rooms, many of them with private bathrooms, walk-in closets, patios or balconies, and large covered or three-season porches, and the bigger one-bedroom units even have full kitchens while the studios have kitchenettes. There's an emergency call system in every unit, individual heating and AC, cable TV, phone hookups, and internet access, plus you'll find tile bathrooms with safety features like walk-in showers, and a unique setup lets you join a studio and one-bedroom by a connecting door if you need more space. Meals get served in a restaurant-style dining room three times a day, with staff who help make and serve food that fits whatever diets residents might need, including vegetarian, kosher, diabetes-specific, and allergy-sensitive meals, and snacks are always on hand along with morning coffee and goodies, and guests of residents are welcome to join them for meals in the dining area. Staff are there 24/7 with supervision, medication management, and help with daily activities like bathing, dressing, and moving about, plus there's an emergency alert system and constant monitoring for safety, panic, fire, and security, and residents can age in place with more support if their needs change over time, and short-term respite and hospice care are both available if needed. The grounds have a village garden-some folks grow vegetables or flowers-walking paths, a butterfly garden, a club room, and a library, and there's a salon/barber shop, laundry and dry cleaning, weekly housekeeping, and washers and dryers for use, all the utilities are included, and transportation is provided for doctor's appointments, errands, or social outings, and residents have their own parking if they drive. Cannonwood Village offers activities every day, both onsite and offsite, with an Activities Director arranging things like arts, learning, meditation, worship, resident-run clubs, communal lunches, and trips into the nearby Rabun County Senior Center for swimming, cafeteria meals, and holiday parties. There's a welcoming pet policy with approval and deposit, cable TV in both the Village Club Room and communal living room, and community-sponsored activities keep everyone busy and in touch, and special programs support mental wellness and nutrition, so really there's a steady, gentle routine here, where friendly staff help people keep their independence but step in when help is needed, and friends or relatives are welcome any time, since the aim is always dignity and a worry-free place to live for those looking for comfort in their later years.
