Our family's experience

The staff was minimal on weekends. Maple Ridge assisted living coordinator told me that this would be my mother's final home, that they were experienced with residents with Parkinson's disease, that Mom would be able to move next door to their full-care residence without a waiting list. Yet when my mother needed more care, they encouraged ER to admit her to the hospital, then short-term rehab at an unrelated facility and refused to allow Mom to return to either Maple Ridge facility. Not a good place for full care!

Maple Ridge Lodge

Maple Ridge Lodge is assisted living reimagined.

Situated off Route 289 at exit 10 and adjacent to the Essex Resort and Spa and Maple Ridge Memory Care, Maple Ridge Lodge is a shiny new 71-apartment assisted living community that embraces all that is true to Vermont and those who call it home.

Residents will select from studio, one and two-bedroom apartments and enjoy conveniences such as three chef-prepared meals served daily, complimentary snacks and beverages, a library, fitness center, and an art studio which will feature our professional art instructor. Personal care services include assistance with bathing, dressing, and medication management, and are available in personalized packages.

Imagine entering our beautiful two-story lobby featuring natural wood timber columns, and an inviting central fireplace wrapped in stone. The dining experience in our Harvest Dining room will be just that, an enjoyable experience every day, highlighted by house made entrees developed by our chef and featuring locally sourced products.

Other choices for dining include The Beechwood Pub where a great sandwich can be had, and the Barley Bistro, where you can enjoy the courtyard it overlooks while enjoying a warming bowl of soup.

Throughout the building, you will be delighted by...

Excellent Care for My Parents

They take very good care of both of my parents there. My dad is in the memory care. Mom tells everyone how good they are to her in the lodge. My only fear is that eventually we might run out of money and have to place them somewhere else. But I'm very happy with the care they receive.

[name removed] was quick to respond to my inquiry, extremely helpful and accommodating. She and [name removed] accepted my mother within 2 days and greatly assisted in my mother's smooth transition to Maple Ridge. The daily nursing/health care is ample, prompt and caring. I am very impressed by the whole experience.
