Explore our variety of on-site amenities

Many of our residents can be found gathering in our lounge. With its cozy fireplace, pool table and bar, it’s perfect for meeting new friends and enjoying a glass of wine. Looking for something a bit more low-key? Our fantastic library selection will have you reading a new favourite, and perhaps gathering with other residents to discuss your favourites. Visit our fitness room for a walk on the treadmill or a strengthening session, come for a swim in our heated saltwater pool, or explore our wonderfully landscaped grounds. We even have a shuffleboard and an indoor putting green.

Take in a hit TV show or classic film in our theatre room with a large projection screen and comfy chairs and sofas. While your suite comes equipped with a kitchenette, our cozy country kitchen is available to use to whip up your favourite holiday cookies or make a pie after we take a trip to a local orchard or fruit farm. Last but not least, we have a hair salon when you want to freshen up your look.
