Insider reviews & perspectives
Comfort Life Review
Bowmanville Creek Retirement Community offers independent and assisted living. This community focuses on providing top tier services and care for an affordable rate. What you might not expect, though, is to see how much fun people have just being here and enjoying the activities. So often, there's a bridge or euchre game being played in the lounge. Elsewhere, a couple of fellows will be gathered around the pool table or a viewing party will happen spontaneously in the movie theatre.
Care within the community is an area where Bowmanville Creek truly succeeds. Response to calls is immediate. And staff are just as generous in handing out hugs as they are in giving the professional care people require. Your wellness is encouraged in on-site exercise classes. Personal well-being is further supported by the comforting coziness of the building and the friendliness of residents, who obviously love life in this happy environment.

General Manager's Message
Melanie Leroux
Melanie Leroux has filled various roles in retirement communities over the past 10 years, and counts herself ‘lucky’ to have taken on the position of General Manager for Bowmanville Creek Retirement Community in January 2019.
As general manager, Melanie wears many hats. She is ultimately responsible for all operational and administrative systems and budgets, and for the residents’ overall experience. Over the years she has gained a great deal of knowledge and experience on new and ongoing government legislations and regulations for licensed retirement homes.
Melanie has a passion for working with seniors, and enjoys interacting with Bowmanville Creek residents. “Many of our residents have lived in this area their entire lives,” she says. “They have many wonderful stories to share.”
