Lakewood Estates Description
Discover a quiet life in the Rocky Mountains at the recently remodeled Lakewood Estates, a South Lakewood senior living community outside Denver. Our grounds are central to the Belmar ""Live. Work. Shop."" development, St. Anthony Hospital and the Colorado Mills mall. Local attractions include the Molly Brown House, Denver Downtown Aquarium and Denver Museum of Natural Science.
Residents appreciate the freedom and flexibility our independent living communities offer as needs around personal care and medical assistance change. Choosing a la carte from third-party health care and personal care providers* -- many with offices right inside the community -- gives them the power to choose their providers and obtain similar services as they would in a higher level of care like assisted living, but without giving up the independence, warm community of friends, and fun-loving atmosphere they enjoy so much.
