MODERN AMENITIES FOR TODAY’S ACTIVE SENIOR

If you want to meet a friend for a cup of coffee, watch the football game or just relax with neighbors after dinner, visit the Coffee Bar, which serves as a popular social hub for residents and guests from morning until night.

There’s even an indoor shuffleboard court where you can play against each other or the grandkids. (Coffee, tea and hot chocolate are always complimentary.)

The Performing Arts Center is home to live entertainment and interactive events almost daily. It also serves as the rehearsal home of the Monmouth Symphony Orchestra, so you will frequently hear classical music floating through the corridors.

OUTDOOR AMENITIES FOR THE GOLFER, GARDENER AND LAWN GAME AFICIONADO

Happier outdoors? Step outside and you’ll be greeted by a 1,000-square-foot putting green, driving range, bocce court and benches, lighted walking trails, regulation shuffleboard court and 6-wicket croquet court. Covered pergolas offer a respite from the fun.

Stroll a little further and you will find the community garden where residents can plant flowers, plants, fruits and vegetables to their heart’s content.

“Croquet is a wonderful game for recreation and competition,” says longtime 6-wicket resident competitor Ginny Allen. “When our new outdoor amenities were added, I was delighted to consult on the construction.”
