Welcome

At Willow Valley Communities, you’ll find 210 breathtaking acres surrounded by natural beauty and architectural elegance. Large enough to offer award-winning amenities and more than 100 stimulating clubs, classes, and groups, yet manageable enough to do it all—if you choose to. 

Our community is home to 2600 residents from 40 states around the country. We offer a seemingly endless variety of living options—from a cozy studio to a 3,000-square-foot townhome or villa—all with a maintenance-free lifestyle. Plus, resort-style amenities the whole family can enjoy:

• The 80,000 square foot Cultural Center, with 500 set Performing Arts Theater
• The 30,000 square foot Clubhouse, with tennis courts, bowling alley, vintage arcade, outdoor pool, golf simulator, and full-service gourmet restaurant to enjoy with friends and family of all ages
• 12 distinct culinary venues including fine dining, casual fare, cocktails, and coffee creations
• Lively rooftop lounge and bar with commanding views that stretch for miles

All of this, plus the financial peace of mind and exceptional value of Willow Valley Communities’ Type A Lifecare contract. Our Type A Lifecare contract entitles residents to short- or long-term care, right here on our campus, if ever needed, at no increase to their monthly service fee. This gives residents the comfort of knowing their future is secure while they live richly today.
