The southernmost state in New England, Connecticut is a popular destination for residents of the New York metropolitan area looking for a scenic getaway — particularly during October, when fall colors are most vibrant. Known as the “Constitution State” for its nation-building contributions following the Revolutionary War, Connecticut is rich with historic Colonial landmarks in cities like Hartford and New London. The southern coastline along the Long Island Sound includes Hammonasset Beach State Park, as well as New Haven, the state’s second-largest city. Here you’ll find Yale University, the antique carousel at Lighthouse Point Park, and the famous New Haven-style thin crust pizza. Although Connecticut can be a bit more expensive than other states, you’ll find it to be a serene, picturesque escape from the big city and an excellent retirement destination.

If I had to choose one word to describe Arden Courts, it would be "home". When I was visiting memory care facilities, I would have never imagined I would have found a place so similar to a home environment....
Overall we're very happy with the care my father is receiving at Brookdale Chatfield. He adjusted to the move well and likes living there. I wish it was easier to communicate with him there.
