Cherry Creek Retirement Village

On the 14th of May 2019, Cliff and I moved to Cherry Creek Retirement Village from our condo at Heather Garden in Aurora. It seemed like an impossible new adventure that might kill me even though I knew it was something we needed to try. Regardless of the fact that it had both open living as well as assisted living which we might need at a later time due to Cliff's advancing illness, it was still scary and not a sure cure to our health problems.To my surprise the staff and the helpers were all so reassuring and loving even down to an endless supply of hugs at the end of a difficult day. We both felt so lost and like strangers in this new place. But each week, after meeting more and more other residents and sharing stories, the strangeness faded away and we found ourselves feeling more like members of a new family.The food was wonderful most days and the kitchen staff was more than willing to change or modify some recipes to compensate for the challenges. The people in the restaurant became our friends and worked so very hard to please us and make us feel special. They were incredibly intelligent and remembered our eating habits almost like a mother or family member.We both came to love the staff and felt like they really loved us back.Although it is still not quite like home, we both feel safe and happy here.Even the men, who maintain this large building and fix all the problems that occasionally occur, feel more like brothers trying to make our lives comfortable and safe.We are grateful to the staff, including the people who sit at the front desk directing us and making sure our lives are safe and happy.Thanks to Cherry Creek Retirement for being our new home.Sincerely, Sheila Sherman

My Mom has been living in the facility since January, 2019. The experience has been excellent. From the initial meeting with Shannon in sales, through the past 10 months. Dennis the director, is always accessible and very responsive. He truly cares!!! The staff is helpful and pleasant. Marie at the front desk, always has a greets you with a smile. Tina the driver bends over backward to accommodate everyone's needs. She is supportive and thoughtful. The property is well maintained and you quickly become a member of the community.We are very pleased and highly recommend the Cherry Creek Retirement Village.

If I could give CCRV 10 stars, I would! They helped my dad when our family needed it most. They personalize every moment, even when you come in for a tour they write a VIP greeting with your name on it! Every staff member has treated us with patience and kindness, especially Shannon. She goes above and beyond to parallel the needs of the resident with what the community has to offer. I trust that my dad is being treated fairly, and they are keeping a close eye on him without overwhelming him! The food is great, its a truly beautiful building and all of the residents seem very happy! The units are spacious and well kept. The maintenance staff is efficient and does a wonderful job customizing the units. We love visiting my dad here. CCRV really did change my dads life, and our familys. I cant say enough good things about this place!

Buyer beware. My mother lives here and loves the social atmosphere of the center, but the food service is poorly managed or understaffed or both. Eating times seem to be based on when staff will work, and the last dinner seating is at 5:00, far too early for many seniors. Theyre going through rapid growth and they cant keep up with the demand.
