Shasta Estates Senior Living

Shasta Estates Senior Living sits in Redding, California, surrounded by quiet countryside and close to places like the Sundial Bridge, Turtle Bay Exploration Park, and Mount Shasta Mall, which means anyone living there won't have to go far if they want to enjoy the Sacramento River Trail or stop by the Win-River Resort & Casino, and actually, it helps a lot that you're near Shasta Regional Medical Center when you need it. Shasta Estates has independent living and assisted living options, and there's even memory care for folks who need some extra help, so you get a mix of services, including support from third-party providers if that's what you need for bathing, dressing, or taking medicine, and they do have a Military Veterans Program too. Apartments come in several layouts-private studios, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom units, with sizes ranging from 426 to 1,150 square feet, and all of them have kitchenettes and cable TV, with most utilities included, so you don't need to fuss much over bills every month. Pets are welcome, which means you won't have to leave your dog or cat behind, and you get amenities like housekeeping, free on-site laundry, a fitness center, indoor and outdoor gathering spaces, elevator access, and even a cheery courtyard and community garden where folks sit in rocking chairs or tend to flowers. Residents get three chef-prepared meals a day, and they offer weekly housekeeping, scheduled local transportation, and a calendar packed with activities like bingo, bocce ball, garden club, art classes, and offsite trips, so no one has to sit around bored. There's a beautician onsite, devotional services, media room, a chapel, and a study area, and you'll notice everything's designed to make life easier, including wide, landscaped grounds and lots of places to socialize. Smoking isn't allowed inside or in public areas, but both men and women are welcome as residents. If you want to walk outdoors or use the fitness program, it's all set up, and you don't have to sign a long-term contract or pay buy-in fees, which helps keep things simple for anyone planning a move. Shasta Estates is run by Provincial Senior Living, and staff are trained to be there when you need something, so people can focus on enjoying day-to-day life, staying active, and keeping in touch with neighbors in a place that feels homey but leaves you close to the conveniences of town.
