The Lodge Assisted Living and Memory Care Community sits at 2200 E Long St. in Carson City, overlooking Eagle Valley, and is managed by Ridgeline Management Company. The Lodge focuses on serving seniors who need help with daily tasks or living with memory-related conditions like Alzheimer's or dementia. The community provides assisted living, memory care, and short-term stays or respite care, with options for studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments, some with kitchenettes and private baths, and both private and shared living in the memory care area. The whole place is pet-friendly but doesn't allow large dogs, yet cats and smaller dogs are welcome, and they hold pet therapy programs too, so residents can keep their companions nearby.
Staff are trained in memory care with a secure environment, including systems for wander alerts, bracelets for residents who might leave the grounds, an exit-seeking management system, and 24/7 care and supervision for those who may be at risk of wandering or have difficult behaviors. They help with medication reminders, personal hygiene, dressing, and other daily needs, and are there to support residents who need one-person or two-person transfers, including mechanical lifts if required, and can handle insulin injections and blood sugar checks.
Residents get to enjoy a variety of meals daily, with a MyChoice Dining Program for different needs, and restaurant-style dining with private rooms as well. The amenities cover both indoor and outdoor needs, such as indoor heated pool, outdoor pool, ponds, a lake on the property, a garden, walking paths, and a dog park. There's a library for reading, a chapel for religious services, a beauty salon and barbershop, a movie theater, lounges, card and game rooms, happy hours, and a community café. Fitness, rehab, and balance classes are available with programs like Balance Fitness® and FOX Rehabilitation, and there's a private spa and massage room for relaxation.
Social activities go on most days, from movie nights and game evenings to lifestyle enrichment activities, clubs, group trips, and volunteer opportunities, while guests can use computer workstations, enjoy housekeeping services, covered parking, and a gated property with plenty of outdoor seating overlooking the mountains. Families find transportation and shopping services helpful. The Lodge offers devotional services, concierge support, in-house doctor visits, emergency call systems in every apartment, and wheelchair accessible showers. Residents can join the Memories in the Making® program for those facing dementia to express feelings through art.
The community maintains a rating of 4.7 from 33 reviews, and those who've been say that staff show genuine care, with a welcoming and safe environment, while the grounds offer plenty of space for walking, relaxing, and visiting with loved ones. The Lodge allows seniors to stay and age in place as their care needs change, while enjoying consistent support, nutritious meals, and a focus on joy and independence.
