“Selling my home of 50+ years and moving to Deer Meadow was on of the best things I have ever done. Gone are the responsibilities of owning a big house… new roof, yard work, pool maintenance, deck repair, etc. and I am not paying rent. I own my home, although there are some rental opportunities. I have exactly what I need at Deer Meadow, in not more. I have the security of a gated community, maintenance-free outside area; swimming pool; lovely community building; friends to share a story or a drink with at 5 o’clock around the pool; and when the spirit moves me, I go to work -out room and watch a little TV while walking on the treadmill. Everyone here is so friendly and helpful. We look out for each other as that’s so important at this stage in out life/ I love my home here at Deer Meadow”

“Moving to Deer Meadow was the best move I ever made for myself! The relief at no longer worrying about how to shovel/snowblow feet of snow, of not having to mow grass or weed whack the same, of not worrying about whether I’ll be healthy enough to safely maintain the exterior of my home, that relief is HUGE, living here allows me to really find joy in my life again. The added benefit comes with the wonderful, caring neighbors here. I knew I would be happy here, but it has exceeded even MY high expectations!”

Also when we return home there also not all the maintenance that we faced with our prior home.”
