Baycrest Terraces is ideal for people who love other people. As part of the Baycrest Campus, you’ll take part in a dynamic community of many people 55 and older. It’s a setting that fosters new friendships and a new perspective on aging well. Prices are reasonable, and you’ll enjoy interacting with the variety of sparkling, standout personalities this community attracts.
The Terraces have recently (2020) added assisted living and memory floors to their community, fomenting the broadening of a vibrant community that also includes Two Neptune and more. It’s a very friendly environment, perfectly suited to people who’ve grown up in Toronto and want to deepen their connection with the larger Jewish community. The people here are enthusiastic about life together. This rubs off on staff, too, who often join in the fun. Once seniors settle in here, they really flourish, and family also appreciates the benefits of this community.
Suites have all been newly renovated, including a full kitchen and updated accessibility features, so it feels like it was made just for you, which it is. It’s an ideal way to make a new beginning. Given that Baycrest brings a long history of understanding seniors’ needs, expect their addition of assisted living to excel.

[There are also] lots of group activities ranging from movie nights in the assembly room to, in the summer, there are ice cream socials and a barbecue. There are Yiddish classes. There are concerts every week. Really a range of things! There are lots of games… Bridge and Rummikub and Scrabble. And really nice grounds outside to walk. There's a beautiful walkway and it's very peaceful.
People here pretty look out for each other, and if there's somebody new, they invite them to go to dinner with them or outside… the welcome couldn't be warmer.

For us, the important thing was that it was kosher. We wouldn't go to a place that was not.
I join whatever is interesting. I go to exercises. I belong to the book club. We have musicals which people enjoy very much… We have a lovely garden outside. Now that summer is here, we go out for walks. There, you meet people… it’s up to you.
The staff is very friendly, very good. We’ve all found [that to be true] ... Everybody is friendly.
Our family is forever grateful to [you] for enhancing our mother’s final years.—The Banacks, family member
Nice staff, very clean and organized place.—Mordecai H., resident
