Letter from our Community Manager

Hello!  I am delighted that you are looking at River Commons for yourself or a loved one. As you look at River Commons you will see that we offer the best in senior independent communities with our award-winning service.  We offer generous services that allow you to enjoy your mature years while maintaining an independent lifestyle. Our richly decorated interiors create a home in high style. We have many inviting commons areas to really extend your living space, truly an area you can entertain your friends and family and engage in warm conversations.

I encourage you to visit with one of our residents – they will tell you how much they love living at River Commons. Our residents call River Commons “home” and there is no better compliment than that.  I encourage you to give us a call today and set up a time to come and see our community; you will see firsthand the quality throughout.

Our caring staff provides the best in service so that you feel pampered seven days-a-week.  Some of the services that we offer are:

• A wide variety of scheduled activities per month led by our trained Activities Director, including many outings
• Transportation within the Port Charlotte/Punta Gorda area provided five days-a-week
• Delicious meals prepared by one of our accomplished chefs, and served in our beautiful River Commons dining room by our well-trained wait staff
• Weekly housekeeping and linen service
• Courtesy Patrol – 24 hour staff on site
• 24-hour emergency call service
• A heated pool to be enjoyed by you and your guests.  The grandchildren love it!
• Fitness center and scheduled exercise classes
• Shuffleboard courts
• Fabulous events like our theme dinners, mystery rides, lunch outings, wine and cheese parties, art/music appreciation, club room forums, poolside breakfasts, and beach walks
• Full service beauty/barber salon
• Small pets allowed

In addition to our caring staff, we think we have the nicest group of residents anywhere! Everyone is always impressed with the friendliness of the people who live and work here.  People are always happy to welcome someone new. When you visit be sure  to stop and say hello to our talking Amazon parrot “Pretty Boy” and his Quaker parrot friend “Sonny.”

I look forward to meeting you soon!

Warmest regards,
