Robson Reserve at Sun Lakes

Ursula

My mom will move into Robson Reserve at Sun Lakes. It's more luxury living. The apartments are bigger. She has a patio, but all the doors are interior doors, a bit like being in a hotel feeling. Very well-maintained, beautifully decorated. A big factor was that she knows that there are German-speaking residents there, which is nice for her, common ground, and that they've got like three residents in senior living, not even assisted living, that are over 100 years old and still active, and she's 94. And that to her is like a big plus sign, it makes her feel like, "OK, I've got years to go." It is independent living, but she wanted something where that if she needed to go into assisted living, it was literally within the same community, so that she could keep friends. And they have an assisted living building right across the parking lot. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The rooms were gorgeous, big, nice-sized, and they had full kitchens. It was well laid out with washing machines and dryers in the rooms. A lot of amenities in the apartment at a comparable price. I saw a beautiful movie room that they also do talks in. They've got an in-house salon with nail care, etc. They have a gym area, strengthening and such, and physical therapists that will come in and work with you if you want. It looks like they had all kinds of activities, both in the house and out, where they go on anything from eating out, to shopping, to the theater. It seems like a very active place. It looks like their residents are a good mix of much older and younger, just over 55 that want independence.
