The Village of Chatham at Soulliere sits in a large area with over 5,400 home sites and about 1,253 acres, so there's space and community around, and it brings together several neighborhoods like Briar Meadow, Calumet Grove, Chatham, Chatham at Soulliere, Piedmont, Springdale, Woodbury, and Woodbury at Phillips, which makes it feel like there's always someone around who shares a story or two from the same stage of life. The community follows clear rules with monthly meetings every second Friday at the Savannah Recreation Center, which helps everyone keep up with changes, and since Savannah Recreation Center's at 1545 Buena Vista Blvd, it's an easy landmark to remember.
They've put together a full range of living arrangements like private, shared, and studio rooms, and the homes are set up with comfort in mind, like the two-bedroom, two-bath courtyard villa, master bedroom, inside laundry room, private yard, and screened rear lanai for catching the breeze, and the kitchen with new stainless steel appliances feels modern, which is handy for cooking or just making tea to sit at the breakfast table on the lanai. There's high-speed internet and a big TV in the living room for watching sports or old movies without any fuss, and with a garage that fits a car and golf cart, moving around the community's always easy.
Chatham at Soulliere keeps a visitation policy and everyone follows a facial covering rule when needed, and the building stays pet-free and smoke-free, which works well for those needing an allergen-free place. The home doesn't get streetlights shining into the bedroom at night, so sleeping comes easier, and with comfortable furniture and an open layout, the place feels lived in and welcoming.
The community's set up for temporary stays, which helps people during home building or a renovation, and they offer weekly rates with payment in full, which makes budgeting simple. There are resources like activity calendars, photo galleries, and a virtual tour, which gives a good preview of life here, and they keep people busy with events, entertainment, and even special programs like socials, camp villages, S.T.A.R., and senior games, plus fishing, Fit Club, and championship softball, if staying active's important.
There's a wide choice of recreation, with golf, parks, walking trails, and dog parks, and they keep up with maintenance so the green spaces and pathways are always ready for a stroll or outdoor lunch. The Enrichment Academy offers classes for those wanting to learn something new, and volunteer and club opportunities are common, so finding friends isn't hard.
Staff in the community-nurses, therapists, and specialty practitioners-have a reputation for being trained and courteous, handling everything from therapy to advanced care, including memory care for folks who need watching due to confusion or wandering, and help with meals, dressing, and getting around, which can take pressure off families. Healthcare's close by, with nearby physicians and care types fit for different needs, from simple assistance to full nursing and memory care.
Residents find convenience with nearby shopping, dining, cafes, and pharmacies, and the facilities themselves handle utilities, sanitation, public safety, and repairs, so daily needs are looked after without calling in extra help. The operation follows clear ordinances and offers maps, planning tools, and a dedicated website so whoever wants more details can find meeting notes or updates, which gives peace of mind.
All in all, The Village of Chatham at Soulliere provides a safe, varied, and active environment for seniors over 55, supporting people with different backgrounds, mobility needs, and interests, whether they're looking for long-term care or a temporary home, and with a mix of care, recreation, and information on hand, daily life feels steady and social without being overwhelming.
