Palm Gardens

Palm Gardens isn’t a retirement home but a retirement community. It’s actually quite lovely with two club houses, to pools, jacuzzi, and it’s gated. The community is welcoming and they have tons of activities for the residents. Most residents are seasonal, and the majority of people are there from October-​ish through April. I’ve visited my parents home there many times, and actually really enjoy my visits. There is Bingo, Cribbage, Hikes, Tours, Social Hours every Saturday… honestly you can stay busy every night. I even go for a run in the mornings when I’m there — if you do the perimeter it’s about 3 miles, so not a shabby work out. The grounds are superbly well kept, and the homes are a mostly on the newer side. You can own a home here, or you can rent. I highly recommend it, and you can see from my photos that it’s really beautiful, clean and fun. Honestly, when my parents first told me they were buying here, I though it was insane, but now it’s the highlight of my winter to go down for a visit!
