Soleil Laurel Canyon sits on 500 acres in the foothills of the North Georgia Mountains, and if you're looking for independent living, this place does a lot to help folks feel comfortable and stay active. The community has a manned gatehouse at the entrance 24 hours a day, with ranch-style, Craftsman homes on one level, all surrounded by professionally maintained landscaping, and a layout that's easy for golf carts to get around, so people get around without too much strain. The 30,000 square-foot Craftsman clubhouse stands as a gathering place, and has a ballroom that seats 400 people, a gourmet teaching kitchen for Canyon Cookers Club, two card rooms, a classic library, a game and billiards room, and a movie and performing arts theater with dinner seating. Residents join over 50 clubs and activities, like Chess Club, Hiking Club, Gardening Club, and Veterans Club, which helps folks make friends and fill up their days.
For those who like to stay active outdoors, you've got 2.5 miles of walking and hiking trails, a 3.5-acre fishing lake, an amphitheater, pickleball and bocce ball courts, plus the Stockton Tennis Facility with six clay and two all-weather courts, and the Fairways of Canton, which is an 18-hole public golf course winding right through the community. A world-class racquet club and zero-entry heated swimming pool, plus a saline, heated indoor lap pool, keep people moving year-round. Gardeners find a greenhouse and horticulture center, complete with community gardens and plots. Housekipping, laundry service, and move-in help make the transition easier, and the community handles all of the landscaping, security, and maintenance as part of the HOA fees, so there's peace of mind.
Dining options include a restaurant on-site and an all-day dining program with menu options for dietary needs like diabetes, and the performing arts center or the Soleil Magazine keeps folks in the loop about events and happenings. Health and wellness are part of daily life, thanks to a gym, massage rooms, a spa and sauna, a 24-hour manned gate, emergency after-hours contact, and support services for bathing, dressing, medication, and more. Non-ambulatory folks receive care and inclusion. There's a 24-hour call system and continuous supervision, and the community offers medical and wellness services that focus on independence, comfort, and quality of life.
The community sits near shopping, parks for camping and boating, wineries like Feather's Edge and Big Door Vineyards, and the Falany Performing Arts Center at Reinhardt University, and the nearby Northside Cherokee Hospital provides healthcare options. People socialize at events, enjoy easy fitness routines, and relax at the fishing lakes or on outdoor patios. Soleil Laurel Canyon tends to draw seniors looking for a full-time, resort-style place with both comfort and lots of things to do, and the dedicated staff keeps routines going to suit how folks want to live, whether that's busy with clubs or quiet in a craftsman home with a mountain view.
