The Carolina Meadows lifestyle is leisurely yet lively — independent yet secure. Carolina Meadows residents enjoy all the pleasures of independent living, without the usual responsibilities of home ownership. Select a home to fit your style of living and budget from a wide range of sizes and floor plans in apartment buildings and spacious villas. All homes are equipped with the most modern aids and kitchen appliances, individual climate control, washer and dryer hook ups, spacious closets, emergency monitoring systems, and safety-equipped baths and showers. If anything goes wrong, a simple call to maintenance brings prompt service — at no additional charge.

   You can select the services you want -- exactly as you need them. The services of Carolina Meadows are designed to enable individual residents to live as independently as possible, paying only for the services they use. Housekeeping and handyman assistance are available by the hour under a number of plans. If you don’t use it, you don’t pay for it. Services for the common good of the community, such as security, maintenance, and groundskeeping, are all covered in one low monthly fee.

   Visit the bank or hair salon, buy a gift for a friend, or enjoy a theatrical presentation in our beautiful Club Center. When you feel like taking a break from cooking, the Carolina Meadows dining room, with its delicious food and friendly atmosphere, is a popular place to congregate with friends and neighbors. Dine as often or as seldom as you wish, signing for meals to be charged, as in many private clubs, against a standard minimum food service fee. Be it a former business associate or bouncing new grandchild, guests are welcome at any time.

   A regularly scheduled, free transportation program is provided for visits to medical and dental appointments as well as weekly visits to a variety of grocery stores, drug stores, specialty stores, and other shopping and business venues. Evening trips during the special series season to the ballet, symphony, and other events are available on a fee-for-service basis. Transportation services are also available during certain medical situations, day or night, free of charge.

   Most importantly, as a continuing care community, you have the assurance that you will have at hand the services and living environment that best fits your needs.
