Spring Lake Village sits in Santa Rosa, California, and has a bunch of living choices for older adults, all on one campus, including independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing. People say the staff are kind, playful, and helpful, and the community's gotten awards like Best of Senior Living All Star for having a lot of good reviews. The campus has cared for people with memory loss, like Alzheimer's, in special units that help lower confusion and help keep residents safe from wandering. The healthcare center offers both private and semi-private nursing beds, holds a Medicare certification, and keeps a five-star rating from CMS. There's a fitness center to help you stay healthy, as well as on-site and off-site activities that fill up your social calendar and enrich your mind and body.
When you walk around, you'll see a library, an art studio, chapel, billiards and card rooms, movie theater, crafts room, woodworking shop, as well as a pool and hot tub indoors. Some of the apartments and cottages have up to two bedrooms and two bathrooms, with kitchens and countryside views, and sizes range from small studios to over 1,800 square feet. There's a pickleball court, bocce, gardens, walking trails, and a dog park, so folks and their pets can always be out in the fresh air. Dining options cover a wide range, from a bistro and Creekside Lounge to a fine dining room or outdoor patio spots, with chefs planning meals so people get their nutrition right.
Monthly fees run between about $4,000 to over $9,000, depending on the living arrangement and the number of residents, and there are also entry fees with different refund options if you pick the declining balance contract. For folks who need a little help, trained aides and on-site caregivers can give personal care, and there are resources for family caregiving and long-term care planning. Residents can't move straight into assisted living without first moving to independent living, but there are flexible floor plans, with some units having basements or bonus rooms for extra space. The community aims to support each person's needs, celebrate different lifestyles, and encourages daily social connections with community events and lots of ways to join in.
Overall, Spring Lake Village gives residents a range of support as their needs change, with attention to health, safety, meals, and ways to stay involved without being too big or flashy about it. The reviews show people feel cared for, and the setting makes it easy to find something that fits how you want to live as you get older.
