My family and I are so pleased to see the changes in activities recently! My aunt had called me almost every night for the past week telling me all she’s done for the day & how much she is enjoying everything. We enjoy the new festive decorations in the lobby as well. The building is always so clean and beautiful as well and staff are always so friendly. Would recommend.

My mom has lived at the Gardens at Columbine for over 6 years now and she just turned 90 last week. Clearly, she likes it there and the staff have always taken good care of her. She really enjoys the field trips. I would definitely recommend the Gardens at Columbine.

I moved in a couple months ago and absolutely love it. The staff is wonderful and so friendly and helpful. The gardens are absolutely beautiful and it’s so pleasant to walk around outside. There are so many activities that you can choose to participate in and I’ve made many new friends. The food is wonderful, which came as a pleasant surprise! I highly recommend the Gardens at Columbine.

How our free service works, and how we are paid

Colorado asks us to share this with you in writing before we introduce you to a community.

MyLivingChoice is a free service that helps you find senior living. We are paid by our participating communities: if you move into a community we introduced you to, that community pays us a referral fee. You never pay us anything.

We do not own or manage any community, and none owns us. Our only ties to the communities we list are the referral agreements that pay us and the listing upgrades some buy. A community that pays us is marked Partner or Sponsored on our site, and a community that has bought verification is marked Verified.

The communities we suggest may not be every one in your area, and we can only make introductions to communities that work with us. We suggest communities by the care you need, the area, your timeline and budget, and what families say about them, never by what a community pays us. If a community stops meeting our qualifications, for example its licence lapses or it stops accepting referrals, we stop suggesting it.

To make an introduction we share your name, contact details and the care needs you told us about, and nothing else. You can stop using our service at any time, for any reason and at no cost, and if you do we will let any community we introduced you to know.
