Castle Country Assisted Living - Victorian House sits in Parker, Colorado, close to downtown with nice views of the distant mountains, and the building, from the early 1900s, is kept up carefully, with a charm that feels like home instead of a big institution, and that home-like feeling spreads through all sixteen apartments and large common rooms, where up to 26 seniors make their home at any given time. The staff keeps a friendly and kind presence, always attentive and helpful, while helping with things like bathing, dressing, and medication, paying close attention to what each person needs and wants, and the place welcomes both active seniors and those who need extra support, since it offers support with non-ambulatory needs, incontinence care, diabetes care, and even approved memory care services. Residents enjoy nutritious meals three times a day, cooked by chefs and meal planners who think about health first, and there's always a choice when it comes to meals in the dining room, with private dining options for special gatherings.
There's a real focus on keeping folks engaged, with planned activities happening all the time, both inside and out; you get theater, music, card games, crafts, and even a yoga or sewing class in the big multi-purpose rooms or sunrooms, and sometimes there are devotional gatherings too. Lots of soft chairs and open spaces make it easy for residents to sit and chat, whether in the living rooms, at the juice bar, or outdoors among the lovely gardens and on the patios, and the beauty parlor on-site makes it easy to get hair done without leaving the building at all. For getting out and about, the staff can arrange transportation when someone needs it, and parking is available for visitors or seniors who still drive. Each apartment has showers and wheelchair access, and the whole place is kept clean and tidy, with staff who try to make sure everyone can live as independently as possible while feeling safe, supported, and part of a friendly group. Victorian House is a non-profit community meant to serve Douglas County seniors, offering respite or short-term stays along with long-term living, and there's always a focus on wellness, activity, and kindness, with lots of spots to meet friends, make crafts, join a club, or just watch the day go by from the sunroom or garden.
