Crownpoint Retirement Community

Crownpoint Retirement Community in Harrisonburg, VA, offers apartments, duplexes, and cottages with rates from $1,950 to $3,250 for apartments and $2,650 to $2,950 for duplexes and cottages, and while there are no entrance fees, they have new units under construction, so residents will find modern, single-level homes with wide doorways, grab bars, and slip-resistant shower floors to support mobility and aging in place, and the living spaces have full-size washers and dryers, walk-in closets, central heating and air, and electric fireplaces, so people who live there will see safety features like security lighting, flat-panel light switches, and highline toilets throughout the homes, which all come with maintenance-free living and a mountain view that adds to the quieter, well-kept setting. The community is designed for independent, active seniors aged 55 and over, and the sidewalks connect to quiet greenspaces, a dog park, outdoor patio spaces, raised garden beds, and trails, so residents can walk or gather outside, and pets are welcome too, which makes it easier if someone brings a furry friend. There's a fitness center, a large multipurpose room, a movie theater, game room, outdoor pool, pickleball and bocce ball courts, , and walking paths for people who want to join planned activities like social events, holiday parties, cooking classes, and gardening in the greenhouse or the raised beds. The dining rooms serve meals, the staff offers personal care like bathing or dressing help, laundry and cleaning, and medication support if someone needs it, plus there are on-site health and wellness programs with nurses, physical therapy, occupational therapy, podiatry, and telehealth support as well as preventative health classes and newsletters. People who need specialized memory care, assisted living, or nursing home care can get individualized plans after an assessment and initial meeting, where staff go over services, features, costs, payment options, and answer questions about the differences between assisted living, nursing homes, independent living, and memory care, including about insurance, Medicare, or Medicaid. The place has a calendar packed with enrichment programs ranging from financial well-being and estate planning to classroom learning, lecture series, and outreach programs, all designed for ongoing engagement, so there's always something to do or learn. There's common areas, a salon and barbershop, and on-site transportation for shopping, outings, or the occasional medical appointment, and the property's close to doctors, hospitals, shopping, and places to eat, which takes away some of the worry about getting errands done. Families and prospective residents can tour the community in person or virtually, look over inspection records, ask for references, join the waiting list, or speak with current residents and their families before deciding to move in, and the management team wants everyone to feel safe and comfortable, with a sense of community belonging and privacy. The community aims to make life easier and more enjoyable, giving seniors the choice to live independently, with support there when needed, in surroundings that are both practical and pleasant.
