Short-Term Stays

It's always in the 70's here!

Short-term stays are exactly what they say: brief, overnight stays in a fully-furnished assisted living or memory care apartment. Stays can be as short as 24 hours or up to several months.

Short-term stays offer peace of mind whether you need a day, a week, a month, or more. Some residents come to us for a stay while their caregivers take a vacation, others stay for rehabilitation following surgery, or they stay with us to receive care and avoid being alone over the winter.

A short-term stay is a wonderful opportunity to get a real feel for senior living without signing a long-term lease.
