The Lodge at Historic Lewes sits in coastal Delaware at 1008 Kings Highway and opened in 2020 as a family-owned senior living community with a strong sense of community and a focus on each resident's unique needs, and the building stands as a mid-rise with 175 modern apartments that let in plenty of natural light, featuring open layouts and thoughtful touches that make daily living easier for seniors. Residents can choose from 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom, standard, and semi-private floorplans, with sizes from 326 to 1033 square feet, and some suites have patios or balconies plus kitchens or kitchenettes, while safety is built into the designs to help prevent falls, which tends to give families extra peace of mind. The community offers independent living, assisted living, and memory care, which means residents get the proper help as needs change down the line, and memory care has a secure area with 32 private or semi-private suites and programs for people living with Alzheimer's or other dementias. The Lodge also has 65 assisted living apartments and 78 independent living apartments, with every care level supported by on-site nursing all day and night, plus trained staff who value dignity and respect in all care, always focusing on what's best for each person.
People living at the Lodge get three meals daily, cooked fresh and made for each person's dietary needs, whether they live independently or need extra care, and the dining experience, much like the rest of life here, aims for comfort and social time with neighbors. The Lodge includes fitness and recreation centers, common areas with big windows and comfy chairs, and a calendar full of activities every day, like crafts, group games, and education, all meant to keep minds active and help people find friends, which makes a big difference for anyone hoping for a lively place in retirement. Residents and visitors can see daily life during tours, and the amenities include both indoor gathering spaces and outdoor areas, so everyone has plenty of room to relax or join in, and there's a pharmacy and healthcare services available too, with access to primary care, specialty clinics, and wound care, offering extra peace of mind for families. Monthly rentals have no buy-in fee or big entrance costs, with simple rental agreements that suit many budgets and give flexibility for changing needs, and this setup makes the Lodge the only monthly rental choice for senior living in coastal Delaware, with locations in both Rehoboth Beach and Lewes. Staff get good reviews for being helpful and attentive, which has led to high satisfaction from residents and families. A limited number of apartments remain, so people interested in a spot, whether for independent, assisted, or memory care, might want to check on availability in advance.
