Holiday Edgewood Downs sits in a quiet part of Beaverton, not far from downtown Portland, and people always notice the lush gardens and colorful flower baskets out front, with a covered entryway that's handy on rainy days. This two-story community offers independent living, assisted living, and memory care all under one roof and has been part of Holiday Retirement since 1971, so there's some history and experience behind the place. The grounds feel peaceful, with walking and hiking areas, vibrant rose bushes, garden beds for planting, and a courtyard full of seating and spots for reading or visiting with friends, plus spaces like a patio with a fire pit for those who like to be outside. Inside, you'll find comfortable lounge areas with plush chairs, armchairs in quiet rooms, and even a game room for billiards, while the lounge has a flat-screen TV and game table, and there's a chapel, small library, computer area, and business center with WiFi for anyone needing to get things done or just wanting a bit of quiet.
The apartments come as studios, alcoves, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom units, ranging from 552 to 586 square feet, all with modern kitchenettes, private bathrooms-some with walk-in tubs or showers-climate control, cable, and patios or balconies, and the policy lets people bring cats or dogs along for company. Shared spaces, like the dining room with teal and gold accents or a cozy fireplace, tend to be bustling during mealtimes, with chef-prepared food served three times a day by a professional dining team, and there's even a private dining space for guests.
Residents can join in fitness programs or use the on-site fitness center, which has treadmills and ellipticals, or pick from clubs and activities like bingo, choir, field trips, or water aerobics. The community offers a game room for activities, a well-stocked library, and peaceful spots for reading or reflection, while the community's event calendar has social events, outings, and opportunities to pick up new skills or make friends. Services include weekly housekeeping, linen service, and scheduled transportation for errands, shopping, outings, or appointments-wheelchair access and a shuttle are available, and there's a mobile alert device for safety in each apartment. Edgewood Downs also provides a full range of services for people needing help with daily living, on-site skilled nursing care, Medicare-certified home health, hospice care, adult day services, and memory care programs for those with dementia.
Amenities round things out with a beauty salon, spa services like manicures and pedicures, laundry facilities, locked mailboxes, guest meals, guest parking, and mail service, and there's always someone available thanks to live-in managers who keep an eye on the building and grounds. The staff tries to keep a friendly, neighborly environment, and the monthly fee includes most utilities, making the basics pretty simple. The building is pet-friendly and comfortable, with open spaces designed to let residents relax, enjoy nature, and stay active, and the focus stays on providing a safe, social, and easy lifestyle.
