I absolutely love this 55+ community! I've been teaching Aqua Zumba here this summer, and it's been such a rewarding experience. The residents are incredibly kind, welcoming, and inspiring. They truly value staying active—physically, mentally, and socially. We exercise together, sing together, and laugh together every class.<br><br>Today, they surprised me with the sweetest gifts: a Ricky Martin T-shirt (my celebrity crush!), a notebook, and a "World's Best Zumba Instructor" keychain. It completely made my day and reminded me how thoughtful this community is.<br><br>There are always fun activities to enjoy, including crafts, Chair Yoga, birthday celebrations, movie nights, and group outings. The staff members are also friendly, caring, and dedicated to creating a warm, engaging environment for everyone.<br><br>I highly recommend this community to anyone looking for a vibrant, active, and welcoming place to call home!

Great facility only 7 years old for active 55+. The amenities are wonderful!! Theater, craft room, fitness center, inside storage room, hair salon, chiropractor, game room and a very large community room used for events and daily breakfast! There is a monthly calendar packed with over 100 monthly activities and the residents plan lots of events in the evenings including bunco, cards, rummikube, etc.. Grilling stations lead out to a beautiful pool, putting green and patio. I was so impressed!!<br><br>The maintenance team is responsive, friendly and helpful!!

Aspen Ridge is a lovely place. Disappointed in the information received. After 2 weeks of unanswered phone and emails, I cancelled my application. Then I was informed I would get a refund. This didn't happen. I can not recommend this adult community

Our maintenance guys are so awesome. If one happens to be in the office when I report a problem, the problem is fixed before I get back to my apartment.
