Upland Manor

Upland Manor sits at 1125 W. Arrow Hwy in Upland, California, where folks 55 and older can find a quiet place to live with forty to fifty apartments, which come as studios, one-bedroom, or two-bedroom units, and there's a real focus on community values shaped by their Christian roots, tied in with the Brethren in Christ Church and run as a non-profit. The community has plenty of space for gathering, including a Meeting House where people join for three-course meals, dessert, and sometimes Bible study, and you'll also find places to meet outside, with gardens, a fountain, and barbecue spots. Apartments have things like cable TV included, and people use a gym, a library, laundry rooms, elevators, and carports, plus covered courtyards that are lit up nicely for evenings or special events. Residents here enjoy community events like bingo, movie nights, and crafts, and there's even transportation to shopping and church for folks who need it. When visitors stop by, a guest room's available for them, and anyone who likes gardening can find their own spot, while those who like sports might try out shuffleboard or the little putting green. The place is close to restaurants, shops, banks, and doctor's offices, so going out doesn't mean a long drive, and people can hop on public transit if they don't drive. The Meeting House serves up breakfast and lunch Monday through Friday, and the office sticks to hours from 8:00 am to 3:00 pm on weekdays, closing for lunch and all major holidays, with some details showing a focus on low-cost or free amenities and add-on services, like housekeeping. The whole atmosphere here is open and caring, with a strong sense of neighborly support, and much of what's done aims to look after both physical needs and the spirit, through a busy calendar and a culture that values kindness, grace, and shared activity, where staff and residents can build friendly ties. Managed by Upland Manor Inc., the community is also connected to local business life through the Upland Chamber of Commerce and hosts plenty of events using spaces designed for meeting and hospitality, all built around a Christian environment and an idea that care goes beyond the basics.
