The Villas at Canterfield, located in Cumming, Georgia, is a senior living community offering primarily independent living services for active adults. The campus features independent residential villas, with an emphasis on maintenance-free living, access to clubhouse amenities, and a calendar of social activities designed to support an active lifestyle. The Villas community itself is not licensed for on-site assisted living or memory care services; however, residents are able to connect with nearby health and wellness professionals or resources as needed. The living spaces are described by residents and visitors as well-designed and comfortable, and communal areas are noted for their cleanliness and modern design.
Assisted living, memory care, and medical services—while not coordinated directly by The Villas—are accessible through outside providers and nearby facilities. For those considering higher levels of support, the services available in the immediate area include 12- to 16-hour nursing support, medication management, and care plans incorporating nurses for routine wellness checks. Memory care communities, some designed specifically for residents with Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia, offer tailored programs, incontinence and ambulatory care, diabetes management, and mental wellness support. Local options may provide dedicated therapy rooms, hospice and palliative care, on-site podiatry, and accommodations for psychiatric or behavioral needs. In these settings, assistance with activities of daily living—including bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting—is available, often with full assistance for residents as required.
Amenities common both at The Villas and in the broader Canterfield community include clubs and social groups, fitness programs, and a barber/beauty salon for personal care needs. Transportation services are available, with the community offering transportation arrangements for non-medical purposes as well as complimentary rides for errands, social outings, or scheduled appointments. This ensures residents can participate in offsite activities or attend appointments with ease—even when higher levels of assistance are needed.
