Rogue Valley Manor

This facility is incredible! The Manor is very large, I'm not certain exactly how many acres but certainly over 500. There's three different several-story buildings on top of a big hill overlooking the Rogue Valley, and many individual cottage homes scattered about the hill's sides. There is a golf course adjoining the Manor, and a seperate one adjacent to it as well. My friend Doug lives in a cottage, and he and his wife Sharon love it. The Manor provided many upgrades when they moved in, and now his cottage is nicer (and newer) then my house! Doug and Sharon are always encouraging me to move up to Southern Oregon so we can be neighbors again, but my children are too far South to make such a move worth it. That being said, after several visits with my friends, I can't honestly think of a better place to retire on the West Coast. Perhaps when I'm older...

This place is wonderful and up to date. The facilities are modern and provide an array of different living situations, medical care and places to occupy the residents' time, from a golf course to a gym. The living situation has different stages. Residents usually start out in their own house on the property. Once their physical state worsens, they are moved up to different care levels in the manor. They'll be taken care of until they die. For a retirement community, it's an upbeat place and most people seem to really prize the friendships they have made there.
