Camden Springs Gracious Retirement Living sits in Elk Grove, California as a part of the Hawthorn Retirement Group, and the place has a lot going for it if you're looking for independent living but need the option for more care like assisted living, memory care, or nursing help down the road because they've got all those levels covered, and folks can choose from over fifty different floor plans, including studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments, each with a private bathroom and a kitchenette, plus some units offer patios or balconies for fresh air. The grounds are well-kept, and there are walking paths for getting some exercise if you want to take your pet along, since they're a pet-friendly place, and there's a nice mix of indoor and outdoor gathering spots, like plenty of lounges, courtyards, a residents' lounge, and a movie theater, plus they have a billiards and card room for games and a salon for when you want a trim or a bit of pampering.
Every apartment rental includes three home-cooked, chef-prepared meals a day, which you can enjoy in their restaurant-style dining room, and there are snacks and beverages always available, so folks won't go hungry or thirsty. Housekeeping, linen service, maintenance, and even cable, utilities like water, gas, and electricity, and local transportation are all bundled into a month-to-month rental, starting at $3,555, so the bills are simpler. They've also got live-in managers who stay onsite 24/7 and help residents with their needs, which can bring peace of mind to families.
For getting out and about, residents ride a community bus or car for doctor appointments, grocery runs, or outings to local shops, restaurants, and even day trips, museums, or cultural events, and sometimes they just use the nearby medical offices, shopping, and golf courses, since it's close to many places in Elk Grove. Their activity directors keep the place busy with daily programs in art studios, fitness centers, and game rooms, plus there are special events and group outings that help people make friends or try new things. People who like to travel might enjoy the Hawthorn Resident Travel Program, which lets them stay up to a week at any of over seventy other Hawthorn independent living communities around North America with no extra cost-meals and activities included-so there's a little adventure in the mix.
They've made spaces for quiet times too: libraries, reading corners, puzzles, or places to catch up with neighbors, and pets are welcome, plus they offer pet therapy for those who want animal company. Staff is ready to offer personal help if needed with care tailored for resident needs as they change, whether it's more help with daily living, memory care, or just the extra check-ins from friendly team members, and there's always someone around with a smile. The environment is safe, with plenty of room to socialize or have family visit, and there's even a way for guests to stay up to seven nights in guest suites, including meals and activities, at no extra charge. So, Camden Springs Gracious Retirement Living covers a lot of ground-a maintenance-free setting with a real community feel, people to help out, a lot of comfort features, privacy when wanted, and group fun when needed.
