Welcome to Lakewood Reserve Assisted Living & Memory Care, a fantastic independent living, assisted living, and memory care senior living community in Lakewood, Colorado, just outside Denver. This beautiful, freshly updated community is a great option for seniors looking to age in place and get the help they need, without ever needing to move again. But what does life really look like for residents of Lakewood Reserve? Let’s jump into a day in the life of a Lakewood Reserve senior living resident, and find out!
Lakewood Reserve: Full of Creativity and Fun!
You’ve been considering senior living for a while now. You are currently pretty independent, and you definitely still want to be respected for who you are and all the life you still have left to live. But you might need a little help with a few things pretty soon, so senior living seemed like a good plan. You chose a community that would support your active lifestyle, while giving you respectful assisted living and memory care options so you can stay for the long term.
Thankfully, your life at Lakewood Reserve has been everything you hoped it would be. You start every day in your spacious, newly remodeled apartment with lots of light and great views. You’re right near the action of Denver, but in a quiet, residential neighborhood, so you don’t have to wake up to the sounds of traffic. And, since every apartment is licensed for assisted living care, you know you won’t have to move unless you need the additional security of the Memory Care wing. Even then, you won’t have to leave your friends (who are also neighbors!) and the staff members who know you by name. You can wake up feeling calm and comfortable, able to really put down roots here and build your best life.
Breakfast with Chef Kevin
Dining room at Lakewood Reserve.
With all-day full-service dining, and a refrigerator and microwave in your apartment, you can take your time before heading to the restaurant-style dining room or the Tally Ho cafe and bistro. Chef Kevin comes from hospitality and is a true artist with the food here. He makes homestyle comfort food with lots of options every day, plus fun themed dinners for special occasions. You enjoy your leisurely breakfast surrounded by friends in the upscale modern dining room. Then, it’s time for activities!
Activities Like You’ve Never Seen Them Before
Courtyard at Lakewood Reserve
Some communities have Bingo and Bridge. We do, too, but Lakewood Reserve does things a little…differently. Think dress-up Disney themed Bingo! Your activities director Whitney is incredibly creative and engaging, so it’s hard to choose which activities to go to today! She personalizes the activities to your unique abilities and preferences, too. And everyone is always included. So what will you do today?
Workouts and Outings
Of course, there are daily exercise classes, but always with a fun twist. Recently, we herded balloon “sheep,” and bounced a giant beach ball around the gym. We also go on lots of outings throughout the neighborhood–there are tons of shopping and dining options just around the corner in Belmar. Inclusivity is important to us, so the Memory Care residents joined us on our recent bus trip up to Lookout Mountain.
Endless Activities, Indoors and Out
There’s a lot to do right here in the community, too. You decide to catch a move at the cinema, and maybe a game of poker in the cozy poker room. There’s also a grand lobby with a mini bar and piano. Maybe you’ll take in the mountain and pond views outside with a leisurely walk around the community. You and your friends work on the garden beds to create an incredible garden every year! Lakewood Reserve is also very pet-friendly, with a dog run outside, so you won’t even have to leave your best friend behind.
A tree-lined walking path surrounds Lakewood Reserve.
The activities are definitely your favorite part of Lakewood, closely followed by the warm community spirit. Everyone here is respected, included, and loved. This feeling of friendship and security allows you to sleep well every night.
So what makes Lakewood Reserve special?
There’s a lot that makes this community unique. Lakewood has deep roots in this area, and there’s so much nostalgia here. The Villa Italia Cinema has references to the old Villa Italia mall, which brings back so many fun childhood memories. The Tally Ho bistro references the Tally Ho social club that used to be right across the street.
And, even though we’re located near the more affluent parts of Lakewood, our community is surprisingly affordable, especially when you consider all the bills you won’t have to pay anymore. You won’t have to worry about housekeeping, home repairs and maintenance, home insurance, lawn care, shoveling snow, groceries, eating out, entertainment…the list goes on and on. Once you factor in what you’re already spending, you might find that life at Lakewood fits well within your budget!
Our tenured, experienced staff also really set us apart. All of our staff members care deeply about you and your loved ones. We’re all about clear, transparent communication, so you or your loved ones will never have to wonder how mom or grandma is doing. We’re here to provide you with invaluable peace of mind, and care for you or your seniors the same way we would for our own family.
