Vitality Living Madison

I toured Vitality Living Madison. It's more like a 55 and older type community, but they cater more to the older crowds, like to the 70- and 80-year olds. It really allows them to be very independent. They have separate condos. They have two-bedroom apartments attached, and that's like one building, and then four one-bedroom apartments in one building together. So they each have their own corner. They are very spacious, like plenty of room for a living room, kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom. Even just bedroom or bathroom closets are very spacious, and they have their own little porches and that kind of thing. Even though the residents are technically living on their own, the community center there still provides one meal for them every week. They have like Friday night dinners together, and they also offer to bring in ready made meals from a local farm-to-table restaurant, and they do that twice a week. There is also an option of transportation to doctors' appointments and to grocery stores. They have lots of activities and amenities. They even have a pool where they do like aqua therapies and exercise classes. They have a pickleball court and a community garden. They have a bunch of activities.

We went to see Vitality Living Madison and it was just not in our price range. We looked at independent living and it's a beautiful place. It's just more expensive than we can afford to spend. It has lovely cottages, beautiful grounds, and a saltwater pool. There are lots of things to do there. They have a very nice activity calendar set up. They just don't do meals for the cottages. It's just a little far from where we want to be and the price range is just a little too high for us. The staff was very helpful. They answered all of our questions and took us on a nice tour of the available cottages. They spent some time with us and were willing to answer any questions that we had. It's close to shopping and that kind of thing, but it's quite a bit close to the country. The people there were very, very friendly. I mean, we met a couple of residents there and they were very nice. I believe they tend to be a nice community to belong to.
