Parkshore Juanita Bay

Parkshore Juanita Bay sits right by Lake Washington, surrounded by gardens and a creek, with wetlands and even a butterfly sanctuary because they picked plants that attract local species, so you get to watch birds and butterflies all season. The place is designed for folks aged 62 and up who want to keep active, live near nature, and be close to healthcare since EvergreenHealth is about 1.7 miles away and Walgreens is within walking distance, which makes getting medicine easy. The community offers many things to do, like resident-run clubs, scheduled activities every day, social outings to local cafes like Starbucks or Deru Market, arts and crafts, movie nights, classes, and nature walks along nearby trails or strolls to town. It's a mix of independent living apartments and support if you need more help since they have assisted living, memory care, nursing care, and short-term respite stays, so you don't have to move if your needs change later on. They help with bathing, dressing, walking, medication, and have nurses for wound care, plus things like occupational therapy and podiatry. The place is known for its green features, boasting a LEED Platinum Certification, with solar panels, rooftop gardens with vegetables and flowers, rainwater collection for watering plants, lots of big windows, and sustainable building materials, which all help keep bills down and the air fresh inside. You'll find modern, spacious rooms with views-some even have kitchenettes, and there are washers and dryers, safety designs like sprinklers, and a 24-hour emergency call system. There's cable TV and Wi-Fi, a small library, fitness center, yoga studio, bistro, al fresco dining spots, rooftop deck with views, salon/barbershop, movie theater, and guest parking with charging stations for electric cars, and they handle all the housekeeping, linen service, and building maintenance, so you don't have to. Meals are served restaurant-style with special diet options, there's a dining room plus room service if you want privacy. If you need a ride, they have transportation services. The focus here really is on health and wellness, helping residents feel part of a community, fostering kindness, emotional support, and encouraging friendships, so people feel like they belong and are safe for the future while still living in a place that pays attention to the environment. Parkshore Juanita Bay is verified on Seniorly, it's run by the non-profit Transforming Age, and it gives older adults a way to plan for a secure future, whether they want to live independently, need a little help, or require full-time care later on.
