Independent Retirement Living at the Garden Cottages

There are 56 Garden Cottages, each offering complete and independent retirement living. Cottages are 1,000 square feet and contain two bedrooms, one and a half baths, a full kitchen, living/dining room, washer and dryer. The single-story cottages are arranged in clusters of four units per building.

The convenience of living on a full-service campus is one of RiverWoods’ main attractions. Becoming part of the RiverWoods independent retirement living community means saying good-bye to the hassles of lawn care, snow removal, mulching and other maintenance responsibilities. Close proximity to RidgeCrest Commons, offers easy access to a variety of on-campus amenities including a beauty salon, fitness room, pool and other commonly used services.

Many residents comment on the high quality of service they receive from RiverWoods staff, the friendly faces, the overall feeling of independence and the beautiful setting. There are more than 24 varieties of trees on the grounds, which provide a natural framework for those who enjoy the outdoors. Adding to the beauty are flowers, shrubbery, well-maintained lawns and the Remembrance Garden located next to Slifer House Museum. Here you can relax on a garden bench, read a good book or simply enjoy the soothing sounds of the garden fountain.

Residents pay an entrance fee and a monthly service fee, which includes maintenance services. A variety of other services are offered at a nominal price. There are no worries about mowing the lawn, taking out the trash or shoveling the snow—they are included as amenities when you are a RiverWoods resident.

Garden Cottage residents can enjoy their independent lifestyle knowing that nursing care and assisted living—should they need them—are nearby.
