Harbor Village

Harbor Village at 16 Harbor View Road in South Burlington, Vermont is a senior living community made up of mid-rise apartment buildings where people can rent one- or two-bedroom suites on a month-to-month basis, and the place welcomes cats so residents can bring their feline friends along for company, and you can furnish the rooms with your own things to make it feel more like home, which many folks appreciate. There are both indoor and outdoor common areas where you'll often find residents sitting and talking, playing games, or just enjoying the fresh air on the grounds, since there's outdoor seating and walking areas for those who want to be outside in nice weather, plus fitness and recreation amenities like a game room and even movie nights for people who like to stay active or social. Harbor Village has a strong focus on accessibility, with wheelchair-friendly showers and suites meant to be easy for people with different mobility needs, plus there's hospice care when the time comes and a staff of nurses and aides on hand 24 hours a day for personal help, right there in the community so folks can feel safe and supported even as their needs change, and they offer both assisted living and memory care if that's needed too, which many families find comforting. There are transportation services for off-site activities and appointments along with resident parking, so getting around is a little easier, and meals are included in the rent, so there's less to worry about in terms of cooking, and for those who want to keep up with faith traditions there's devotional services right onsite as well. Harbor Village provides a range of health services, including skilled nursing and options for short-term stays, and for those who like company and something to do, you'll find plenty of activities, like arts and crafts, social events, and exercise classes that help people stay engaged and social, plus there's beautician services available in-house. For couples with different levels of care needs, the staff can make special arrangements, and there's a general understanding that folks should live as independently as they're able, with help always available if it's needed. The facility is a Level III Residential Care Facility licensed by the Vermont Department of Aging and Independent Living and honors LGBTQ legal protections for housing and employment, and while there's no information here about utilities or exact outdoor amenities, it's close to healthcare like the UMV Health Network, which gives some peace of mind in an emergency.
