Sunset Senior Living is a family-run community of ninety-two residences, set in seven acres of walled garden in Cedar Hollow. Independent living, assisted living and memory care — with a registered nurse on site every hour of every day, and a care ratio of one to six.
92% of families say we feel like home
Before a single care plan is written, someone from our team sits down with you — often for two hours, often over tea. We learn about the garden your mother kept, the shift pattern your father worked, the songs that still bring them back. Everything we build afterwards starts from there.
Residents move between wings without changing address, doctor or telephone number. You choose the care you need today — we take care of what tomorrow asks for.
Your own one-bedroom apartment with a kitchenette, your own front door and no upkeep. Come and go as you please, with the reassurance of a nurse two minutes away.
From $3,450 / month
All the freedom of independent living, with a discreet hand wherever it is needed — bathing, dressing, mobility and medication, always at your pace and always with dignity.
From $4,950 / month
Rosewood is a secure, twelve-residence neighbourhood built around a circular garden path — so residents can walk freely and always arrive back where they started.
From $5,850 / month
Our care assessment is free, takes about an hour, and is carried out by a registered nurse — not a salesperson. You will leave with a written recommendation whether or not you choose Sunset.
Two weeks to two months, in a fully furnished garden suite. Many families start here — it makes the decision real before anything is signed. From $215 a night.
Six shared spaces our residents use every single day — not showpieces, but the rooms where the kettle is always on and somebody always knows your name.
Raised beds at hip height, wide paths with handrails, and a heated greenhouse so the tomatoes start in February. Residents plant, prune and pick — and the kitchen cooks what they bring in.
Four thousand books, large-print and audio editions, magnifiers by every chair, and the daily papers held behind the desk. A quiet room that is genuinely quiet.
Dietitian-written menus, three cooked meals a day, and all-day tea and cake. Family tables for eight, so birthdays and Sunday lunches happen here rather than in a restaurant.
Watercolour, pottery, woodwork and letter-writing, with a kiln and a proper sink. Work is framed and hung in the seasonal gallery beside the dining room.
Chair yoga, tai chi, balance and resistance classes every morning — plus a visiting physiotherapist on Tuesdays and Fridays. Falls prevention is not an add-on here; it is the whole point.
Two resident golden retrievers who have their own beds in the lounge, a visiting therapy-dog rota, and an aviary in the conservatory. Residents’ own pets are welcome by arrangement.
Our programme is written by residents, not for them. Sixty-one activity slots a month, and you are never once counted as absent. Pick a day to see the usual shape of it.
Wednesdays at eleven. Nobody needs to remember the steps — only the chorus.
Twenty-three voices, Thursdays at half six. They tour the local school each December.
Live piano and a different resident’s record collection, every Thursday evening.
Always set up, always mid-game. Bridge on Tuesdays, bingo on Wednesdays, scrabble daily.
Six rooms, photographed last spring on an ordinary Tuesday — no styling, no tidying up beforehand. Tap any room to open it full size.
Book a live video tour with one of our team — 30 minutes, your questions, our garden tractor in the background if you are lucky. No obligation whatsoever.
A two-week trial stay in a furnished suite, full care and programme included, from $215 a night. It is the honest way to find out whether Sunset is right.
The hardest part of this decision is almost never the care itself — it is the guilt, the paperwork and the logistics. Here is the help we give families, before and long after moving day.
What to bring, what to ask, and why a twenty-minute visit on a Tuesday beats a two-hour one on a Sunday. Includes a printable conversation card for visiting a parent with dementia.
A six-step plan covering what to pack, what to leave behind, how to bring a favourite chair, and the small things — the clock, the photograph, the radio station.
See daily care notes, medication summaries, therapy progress and this week’s activity photographs — from your phone, at any hour, with read-only access for siblings.
Care notes reviewed with you each month. A named family liaison for every resident. A monthly support group for anyone living with dementia in the family — open to the wider community, not just our residents.
Usually a family already knows, and is looking for permission. The signposts are practical rather than dramatic: meals being skipped, medication running out early, a fall nobody witnessed, a house that has quietly become too much. If two or more of those are true, an hour with our nurse costs nothing and settles the question either way.
Yes — there are no visiting hours. Families hold their own key fob to the garden gate. Children and well-behaved dogs are welcome, and we will happily set up a private family table in the Tea Room with a day’s notice.
Residents move between our wings without changing address, GP or telephone number — and without a new contract or entry fee. The monthly fee is adjusted to the new level, with thirty days’ written notice, and we will always discuss it with you before anything changes.
None. One refundable two-week holding deposit, one monthly fee that covers rent, care, meals, housekeeping, utilities and the full activity programme. There is no lock-in contract and no deferred management fee — leave with thirty days’ notice.
Absolutely, and most do. We arrange transport to outside appointments twice a day, and our nurses will send written notes to your GP after every significant change. If you would rather switch, two practices in Cedar Hollow visit residents here.
We are a private-pay community, and we accept long-term care insurance benefits and veterans’ aid. Our family liaison will sit with you and your insurer or financial adviser, at no charge, and will tell you honestly if a different community would serve you better.
“I flew in from Singapore for one afternoon to look at three homes. Sunset was the only one where somebody asked me what my mother was like, rather than what she needed. She has been there nineteen months now and I have never once worried on the plane home.”

“I came for the garden. I stayed because on my second morning somebody had already learned how I take my tea — and nineteen months later it still arrives the same way.”
Ninety-four staff for ninety-two residents. Our clinical leads are here every day — not on call from home, not visiting on Wednesdays.
“My test is simple: would I be content if my own mother lived in this wing? I ask myself every morning at handover.”
“We review every resident’s medication every ninety days, and we take things away far more often than we add them.”
“We never correct a resident. If the year in their head is 1974, then we spend the afternoon in 1974 with them.”
Most families take between three weeks and four months to decide. We will not chase you, and we will tell you plainly if we are not the right fit.
Fill in the form, or telephone us and speak to a human being within one working hour. We will ask about your situation, not about your budget.
Come for lunch, walk the whole site, meet residents and staff on an ordinary day. Then an hour with our registered nurse produces a written care recommendation — yours to keep.
Two weeks in a furnished garden suite from $215 a night. Many families begin here, then make the decision with their eyes open rather than under pressure.
A named liaison coordinates everything: room preparation, prescription transfer, GP notification and the first week’s routine. We will hang your pictures before you arrive if you send them ahead.
Tell us a little about the person you are asking for. A member of our team — not a call centre — will reply within one working day.
A member of our admissions team will be in touch within one working day. If it is urgent, please telephone (555) 018-4400 and ask for the duty nurse.
