Mallard Run Apartments sits quietly at 820 Lisburn Rd in Camp Hill, PA, tucked away in a peaceful, scenic neighborhood that feels set apart from busy streets, with trees and open spaces all around, and with its competitive $4,000 monthly rate, it gives seniors a place to live that's affordable compared to others in the area if you want private accommodations, and you'll find that it's classified as a Section 8 high-rise property specializing in active senior living for people 55 and older, so most folks here like the independent living, but it also offers assisted living, memory care, nursing home support, and in-home care, and if you want something simple, they have spacious one- and two-bedroom apartments, each with modern appliances like a stove and refrigerator, hot water heaters, easy-access tub cutouts for showers, and emergency pull cords, which lots of residents appreciate for peace of mind.
You'll notice Mallard Run Apartments feels designed so you can choose how much or how little you want to do-residents join weekly exercise classes, monthly arts and crafts, and monthly visits from a podiatrist, and there's a regular schedule of community programs like food and bread distribution, health fairs, and social activities that get people together to talk and make friends, so it's nice if you want to stay busy, and they even plan to offer iPads, tablets, and a yoga instructor, which shows they're trying to keep everyone active and connected.
Management is on site and ready to help, and people say the staff is friendly and treat residents with care, and there's a Resident Access portal so folks can keep track of payments or requests online if that's their preference, though old-fashioned help is always available during weekday office hours, which run from 9 to 5, and the apartments allow pets, which not everywhere does, so anyone with a small dog or cat might feel right at home.
Amenities include a community room where residents gather, an outdoor patio for fresh air, a community garden for those who like to grow things or just relax outside, and there are clubhouses, swimming pools, and fitness centers available, though some features and amenities like outdoor spaces, parking, or internet are not specifically listed, and those details are best confirmed directly with the staff.
Medical needs are easier to handle here too, since around the neighborhood you'll find 12 pharmacies, 28 physicians, ten hospitals, and four parks for walks or picnics, and for faith and spiritual needs there are four places of worship nearby; people who love to go out won't run out of options either, since there are 36 restaurants and six cafes within a short drive, and if you need anything from groceries to a decent meal, it's all close at hand, while nearby you'll find affordable rental properties, including townhomes, condos, and single-family homes, so family or friends can stay nearby.
Mallard Run Apartments partners with several local groups like Central PA Food Bank, New Hope Ministries, and local churches and service organizations, so community support is always close, and residents sometimes take part in events or programs led by these partners, which really helps people feel part of the broader Camp Hill area and lets them join in more than what's offered just inside the building.
Apartments are kept practical and safe for seniors, with security features and thoughtful layouts to keep life simple, and if residents wish, there's even a chance to apply for college scholarships through The Michaels Organization Educational Foundation, adding a bit of opportunity for lifelong learning or maybe helping a grandchild.
Though some information about the property-like specific parking, outdoor amenities, what's included in rent, or technology offerings-isn't published, and prices aren't publicly listed, Mallard Run Apartments keeps things straightforward and tries to foster a comfortable, supportive community built around choice, independence, and security for those looking to enjoy life at their own pace in their later years.
