    Gorgeous campus with exceptional staff

    I live here and it's been the best decision - a gorgeous, well-designed campus with resort-style amenities, walking trails, pools and comfortable residences. Management and staff are exceptional - caring, responsive, resident-focused, and they handled COVID and safety with real professionalism, giving me genuine peace of mind. Dining is excellent (restaurant options, chef-driven meals and convenient delivery), and the social calendar is vibrant with friendly residents and nonstop activities. I highly recommend it for independent living.

    About Porters Neck Village

    Porters Neck Village sits on 58 scenic acres in New Hanover County and offers a mix of living options for seniors who either want to live independently or may need extra support. Folks can choose from apartments, duplexes, or villa homes, all built with comfort in mind, with things like open floor plans, big closets, full kitchens with quartz or granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and lots of storage, plus patios or balconies. Some homes even look over peaceful water views. The campus has walking paths that wind past ponds, bridges, and a resident garden, so residents always have something pretty to see and space to walk the dog, since pets are welcome.

    Those needing more help can move between independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing-all within the same community, since Porters Neck Village is a Continuing Care Retirement Community. The Resident Care Center provides extra support and health care if someone needs it, and the staff includes Life Care Services professionals who know senior living well.

    The community has activities and features for both relaxation and staying active. There's a 10,000-square-foot wellness center, a heated indoor saltwater pool, a covered parking area, and a big auditorium with 375 seats where lectures or shows happen. People can use the fitness center, take part in water aerobics, yoga, tai chi, line dancing, or try out the hobby shop, movie theater, or card room. There are walking trails, a dog park, meditation spaces, worship rooms, a billiards room, and a residents' lounge.

    Porters Neck Village has a strong dining program, with the Magnolia Room for sit-down meals, a bistro and bar for socializing, meals-to-go or delivery, and private dining spaces for family visits or private events. The renovated library offers a quiet spot for reading, and the community runs regular social events and outings, sometimes with transportation included for off-site trips.

    Residents have access to beauty and barber services, housekeeping, speech and physical therapy, occupational therapy, medication management, 24-hour nurse coverage, and emergency staff. There are extras like a community garden, a dog park, a card and game room, discounted greens fees at nearby golf courses, and interior and exterior amenities that make daily living feel easier and more comfortable. The Passport Club gives access to different floor plans, and security is present around the clock. The community recently expanded by adding 44 new independent living units, keeping the focus on a safe, connected, and active environment.

    Porters Neck Village supports seniors no matter what level of care they need. Residents can enjoy pretty views, lots of activities, and a friendly, welcoming place to call home.
