Many rooms have direct access to courtyards that have an abundance of sunlight with native plants, bird life and places to relax and enjoy the fresh air, whilst other rooms have patios overlooking the gardens and streetscape of the retirement village or the beautiful Lake Howard parklands. There are many lounge areas where residents can attend activities or enjoy time relaxing with family and friends.
The lodge has a comprehensive activities program which includes exercise groups, physio, Tai Chi, quizzes, craft activities and regular bus trips. Meals are cooked fresh on site with a variety of summer and winter menu choices available.
