Linwood Estates Gracious Retirement Living sits in a peaceful neighborhood in Lawrenceville, Georgia, close to Northside Hospital Gwinnett, Lawrenceville Family Practice, Walgreens pharmacy, plenty of restaurants like Chick-Fil-A, and coffee shops such as Kung Fu Tea, so folks won't have to go far for what they need. The community offers several living options including independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled care services for those who need more help, all on the same campus, which they sometimes call a continuing care retirement community, and that means residents can stay put if they need more help over time.
There are more than 50 different floor plans available, all with private apartments set up with kitchenettes and roomy bathrooms, and everyone can enjoy stately interiors with relaxing common areas, a cozy library with a fireplace, a beauty salon and barbershop, a fitness center, and special rooms for games and art, plus a movie theater for evenings together. The grounds are well-kept, with walking paths, inviting courtyards, and outdoor spaces for residents to enjoy with family and friends.
Meals are cooked from scratch by an executive chef and culinary team and served restaurant-style, with three fresh meals each day included. Residents can join exercise classes, try new hobbies, attend lectures, or enjoy crafts and games, since there's a full calendar of activities and events planned by the activity directors, and everything is included in the monthly rent. Housekeeping, linen service, electricity, gas, water, sewer, basic cable, and local transportation are all part of what you pay every month. There's live-in management and caring staff on site throughout the day. Safety is important, so there are on-site managers and medical alert devices from Lively® by Best Buy Health™.
The Hawthorn Resident Travel Program is a special highlight, since it lets residents stay in guest suites at over 70 sister communities across the country for free, up to seven nights each trip, with meals and activities included at no extra cost, and there are both domestic and foreign travel opportunities for those who like to see new places while still having support. Transportation is available for doctor's visits, shopping trips, appointments, and errands around town.
For those who need a hand with daily living, there's personalized support, and higher levels of care are available for those who need it. Linwood Estates offers a comfortable, secure, and active environment for seniors, with a family-style feeling thanks to the friendly live-in management and a strong community spirit, and with a 5.0 rating based on 16 reviews, it seems many folks appreciate what the community provides.
