    The Gardens at Wakefield, a Holiday Retirement community in Raleigh, NC offers comfortable senior housing. Located near Durham, Knightdale, Morrisville & more.

    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.
