Chartwell Carrington House is a retirement residence in the tight-knit community of Mission. We provide a quaint, welcoming lifestyle with the right level of support for your unique preferences—including any current or future care needs—so you can comfortably age in place. That includes independent living or assisted living services personalized to your preferences and lifestyle.
The worry-free lifestyle you deserve
Our retirement community offers a variety of convenient services, including three daily meals, weekly housekeeping, linen and towel service, enriching activities and outings, transportation to appointments, and even access to an on-site hairdresser and scheduled doctor visits. If you need more daily support to live well, we can also partner with you to create a personalized plan of care that can support your independence and peace of mind.
With bright studio, one- and two-bedroom suites to select from—many with stunning views of Mount Baker—you have the freedom to choose the lifestyle that best suits you!
Relax in serene outdoor spaces
There are an endless number of ways for you or a loved one to spend your time at Chartwell Carrington House, but one area of the retirement home that always attracts attention is our gorgeous outdoor space, including landscaped grounds, walking paths and a resident-driven community garden. We also recently updated our list of amenities to include a new movie theatre, arts and crafts room, and fitness facility.
However, it isn’t our building that makes us a special place to live, but our friendly staff who go above and beyond to make residents’ lives better and foster an inviting, supportive environment. We’re like one big family here, and it isn’t unusual to spot the General Manager having lunch with residents, or staff gathered around to watch a resident blow out birthday candles on a cake thoughtfully prepared by the food and beverage team.
Personalized care options for better quality of life
In addition to convenient household services, you can take advantage of a host of care options geared to helping you maintain your health and independence with the peace of mind you deserve. Our Retirement Living Consultants can help you navigate the different care options available.
The dining experience
At Chartwell Carrington House, we want your dining experience to be defined by good food and great service. That’s why we offer a diversified menu to make your life better, including delicious and wholesome chef-prepared meals in our well-appointed dining room. Dining times are flexible, and meals for guests are available. We also have a private dining room where you can gather with your family for catered meals.

Senior living in Mission
Located on 6th Avenue in the tight-knit community of Mission, our retirement residence is close to many amenities and services, including parks, libraries, community centres, medical and wellness clinics, a hospital, places of worship, and walking paths.

Things to do in Mission
Mission is a small, established city in the Fraser Valley, surrounded by stunning mountain vistas and natural forest settings, less than an hour’s drive from Vancouver and 15 minutes from the U.S. border. Known as “the Jewel of the Valley,” it’s a wonderful place to call home not only because of its warm summers, mild winter climate and rich history, but its proximity to many beautiful lakes, Cascade Falls Regional Park, and Rolley Lake Provincial Park. The Fraser River section near Mission is mostly undeveloped and unspoiled, making it an ideal launch point for many water-based activities and boat tours. If you’re moving to a Mission retirement residence, you can also visit local attractions like Westminster Abbey, Ferncliff Gardens, Trout Creek Farm, MAC Rock Family Art Gallery, The Powerhouse at Stave Falls, Fraser River Heritage Park, Mission Museum, Davis Lake Provincial Park, Hayward Lake Reservoir, and the Dhalia Flower and Grape Festival at Shangrila Farm.
