Fountain Of The Sun is a senior living community for people aged 55 and over, spread across 582 acres with homes built mostly in the 1970s, though some have been remodeled or renovated, and there's a mix of regular houses, manufactured homes, patio homes, and townhomes to choose from. The neighborhood feels safe with a guard gate and 24-hour security, plus well-maintained grounds that have a calm, friendly atmosphere. Those living here can pick from independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing, or memory care services if extra help is needed, and staff is available around the clock with an Emergency Alert System in place for safety. Support for activities of daily living, medication help, and non-ambulatory care are options, and residents with walkers, wheelchairs, or who are bedridden can get rooms that fit their needs, whether they're looking for a private or shared room or a studio, and the units come with private bathrooms, Wi-Fi, cable TV, kitchenettes, air conditioning, and are often furnished for comfort.
Dining is handled by professional chefs who prepare meals in a dining room with all-day restaurant-style options that include allergy-sensitive or diabetes-friendly dishes, and the community covers special diets as needed. Housekeeping, laundry and dry cleaning, move-in help, concierge, and family support make day-to-day life easier, while personal document services and neighborhood post office are there to help with other everyday needs. Residents who enjoy having something to do will find a loaded schedule of daily activities, movie nights, music programs, arts and crafts, book clubs, and lifelong learning classes, plus there's a fitness room, wellness center called Science and Art of Living, and a spa for mind and body balance.
The outdoor spaces are a big draw, with walking paths, swimming pools, exercise facilities, pickleball and shuffleboard courts, and horseshoe pits, and the Fountain of the Sun Country Club offers a members-only golf club, an 18-hole executive par 62 golf course, a pro shop, a restaurant, clubhouse, and meeting rooms for those who want to play golf or relax indoors. Over 50 clubs and programs let people join social groups, choose fitness classes like yoga and water aerobics, take art lessons, or join weight reducing clubs and physical fitness groups. There's a dedicated Pickleball Club with 270 members as of December 2024, a pickleball league, and even seasonal lessons for new players, and the courts have set hours, with one open until 9pm and two others until 5pm. The community has its own post office, provides regular church services, classes, seminars, country club events, and has a ballroom, multi-purpose rooms, a game room, library, and activity center for gatherings and hobbies.
Neighborhoods here, including those with townhomes and patio homes, have their own pools, offering quiet spaces to relax. With lake and mountain views, well-kept fountains, and year-round sunshine, the setting is peaceful and good for those who like to wind down or want outdoor recreation close at hand. For families and residents, financial operations are made simple through services with Sunbound, which helps manage Medicaid and Medicare claims, automate rent rolls, and speed up payments using digital tools, aiming to keep senior living affordable and easy to manage. HOA fees differ by association and home type, and the community association takes care of the administrative side. Respite care is available for short-term stays if caregivers need a break, and support continues through memory-enhancing activities for those with Alzheimer's or dementia. Residents can tour the grounds and meet staff and neighbors before making choices, and the community expects people will find the active, secure, and supportive environment draws others looking for a retirement option that blends independence, care, and a full calendar of social and wellness choices.
