Senior Living Options

Our Columbia retirement community offers the following senior living options:

Active Adult Community

Active Adult Living provides an age-restricted community environment for those looking for a relaxed, maintenance-free lifestyle. Accommodations include 1, 2, and 3 bedroom apartments and 2 and 3 bedroom cottage homes.

Independent Living

Our Independent Living accommodations offer a maintenance-free lifestyle with countless amenities and a robust community environment. Independent Living is ideal for seniors who need little outside assistance.

Independent Living +

As we age, we often just need a little more support before needing assistance. Our Independent Living + is just that. It offers all the incredible services you find in our assisted living, only without the hands-on assisted care. You’re free to focus on what you want to do without having to deal with the burdens of maintaining a house, cleaning, safety, security, cooking, and transportation. The advantages of Independent Living + are knowing that if something were to happen, the care you need will be there and you won’t have to go through a move or deal with the hassles of trying to find help.

Assisted Living

Our Assisted Living community offers spacious private apartments with the benefit of assistance in day-to-day tasks. Members enjoy premier social, dining and wellness programs.

Memory Care

Reflections at Wildewood Downs is a person-centered Memory Care community for seniors with Alzheimer’s and dementia. The care we provide is customized to each individual and focuses on family engagement.

Hear From Our Members – Bill & Diana

Read Transcript
I’m Bill.
My name is Diana.

We started looking for two years. We were familiar with the area and we were not disappointed when we got here. We went to several places and once we came and saw it we fell in love with it. And all the other places we looked at we just kept coming back to this one. It was our favorite.

As we pulled out of the driveway of our old house, I just thought to myself, I sure hope we’re doing the right thing. I was really nervous, and we got here and it been amazing.

The first night we went to the dining room, people were literally lined up at our table to introduce themselves and welcome us. Our next door neighbors had a cocktail party for us. I mean, It’s just been fabulous, absolutely wonderful. We have such nice friends and we do a lot of fun things together.
