This community has one- and two-bedroom apartments made with active and independent seniors in mind. Each apartment comes with a full kitchen, dishwasher, garbage disposal, private washer and dryer hookups, walk-in closets, and either a balcony or patio. Select units even have fireplaces and en-suite laundry for extra comfort. Every building has elevators, locked entrances with intercoms, and heated underground parking, so moving around and coming in and out is hassle-free, even in winter. There's gas forced-air heat, central air, and each place has its own thermostat to adjust the temperature. Some apartments are set aside for moderate-income seniors, which helps keep things affordable.
The place is meant for privacy and peace, with well-kept grounds and a quiet feel, and there's outdoor common spaces for relaxing and recreation. The atmosphere's pretty calm, and you can bring a small pet with you if that's important. There are several outdoor areas and a nearby park for safe walks or sitting outside, and you've got easy access to shopping, medical offices, pharmacies, and restaurants, plus farmers markets and local clinics right in the area. You'll find religious services off-site nearby if that's something you want. The Wolf River and nearby lakes are close if you enjoy fishing or sitting by the water.
Inside, there are roomy common areas for socializing, group games, or spending time with neighbors. There's a fitness center, movie theater, fireside room, library, community center, arts and crafts room, and a computer lab. An on-site beautician is available when you want a haircut or just to freshen up. Storage options are available too, so you don't have to worry about where to keep those extra things.
The community is still under construction, which means there could be a bit of noise or inconvenience, and while there aren't currently any organized activities or set community events, there's talk of more features and amenities coming later. The apartments are made to be easy to get around, with accessible bathrooms, and wheelchair-friendly showers for those who need them. Care options include assisted living, memory care (for Alzheimer's and related needs), skilled nursing, as well as independent living. The staff offers advice and planning services for those who need help figuring out what's best.
Overall, Highlands at River Crossing Apartments 55+ gives seniors a place to live comfortably on their own while still having help nearby if they need it, and makes it possible to relax, remain social, stay active, and live with privacy. The rent's generally more affordable than most other places in the area.
