Insider reviews & perspectives
Comfort Life Review
It’s a fun environment at Orchard Gardens. There are movie nights, a very active games room, and plenty of social activities on the schedule. Dining here is also notably elegant. It’s a setting where people grow friendships and support each other.
With walking paths nearby, backing onto Davie Park, and situated close to churches, shopping, and other services, residents have a comfortable setting in which to thrive. This community has always been lauded (under its previous name, Fenbrae Manor) for its independent living, great food, and positive atmosphere. VRS builds on that with its dedication to responsiveness and compassionate care.
Suites here are spacious, brightly lit, and cozy. These are nice when you want to relax or even have an in-home visit with friends. Those living here have brought their own furnishings and personal accents, and after brief adjustment, Orchard Gardens becomes a happy home for them. (You can also choose to bring pets.) And of course, people don’t spend a lot of time in their suites, thanks to the many new friends they make here.
