The Best Independent Living Communities in New Hanover County, NC

"The Woods at Holly Tree is a very nice community with friendly staff. They have nice open spaces, like the dining room and the lounge areas. The apartment seemed spacious enough. They had nice-sized windows, outdoor spaces, and patios. The facility is in a nice shape; it doesn't need any updating or anything like that. I was always very happy with it. It was the sales manager that took me around and answered questions. She was helpful."

"I went here for a visit, and it was a nice facility. They have good options for the residents. I just like the place because it's very clean."

"We haven't moved yet, but I think we will be going to Cambridge Village of Wilmington. We like everything: it's brand new, beautiful, and the price is right, and it has an indoor salt water pool and a lovely hair salon. It just has everything, and they're close to the medical community down there in Wilmington, which is nice. The grounds are lovely. "

"Arbor Landing at Compass Pointe was top-notch. It's brand new. It's not even close to being capacity filled, but it's pricy. The staff was very nice. They have a library, numerous TV seating areas, in-house movie theater, and laundry facilities. It's all independent living, but if you want assisted living, there is a third-party company onsite that you can pay a la carte for each service that you want."

"Arbor Landing at Hampstead was originally where my mother was going to live. It's an independent living community. I visited there and we had an apartment set up for my mother and we were moving her there from another location in North Carolina just to be close to us, but then she ended up getting sick and she couldn't go in. However, they're excellent. If there's anybody ever looking for a senior living community, I would highly recommend them. It's lovely. The people that run it are excellent. They have activities that you can imagine. We weren't able to partake in it because my mother couldn't live there after all, but I know they were very active and they had lots of things going on. There are studios, 1-bedrooms and 2-bedrooms, and they're very nice. It's like three years old, so they're more modern. It's a lovely community for people that are still independently living."
