Our goal is to foster connections through engaging programs, shared experiences, and welcoming common spaces.
Independence and enriched living go hand in hand with a strong sense of community.
Residents gather for book discussions, gardening, cooking, and creative arts, while others enjoy engaging in forums, political discussions, or simply sharing stories over coffee. Whether you’re looking for intellectual stimulation, artistic expression, or a casual social circle, every day offers an opportunity to build friendships and embrace new experiences.
What's so nice about Laurelmead is it's where everybody in the family can gettogether for a Sunday dinner. It is just such a welcoming, lovely environment for the entire family...
