Independent Living means the freedom to do as you please.
Your vision for retirement is like no one else's. That's why we offer an abundance of choices—and it's always up to you to pick the ones you want. You create your own adventure; we provide everything you need to make it happen.
A lifestyle that has everything you hoped for and more than you imagined.
Home and yard maintenance will be a thing of the past, and you will be free to live a truly carefree life. Plus, you'll enjoy the services and amenities of a world-class hotel with the comforts of home.





Enjoy distinctive living in a comfortable and spacious apartment home.
We have some of the largest apartment homes found in any retirement community in the state. You'll be at the height of luxury and ease in our maintenance-free homes that come standard with attractive finishes. Among them are walk-in closets, fireplaces, crown molding, stone countertops, high-end appliances and a fully monitored call system. You'll always be comfortable and secure when at home.
Engage in as many or as few entertainment and social opportunities as you’d like.
Boredom? That word is not in our vocabulary. Nor will it be in yours. There are so many things to see and do on and off campus that you will never be at a loss for meaningful and fulfilling activities.


Meet Bob & Carol Russell.
"We decided if we were going to move from our home in Wilton, we were only going to move once. As soon as we saw the beauty and opportunity on campus, we simply could not image life anywhere else."
