My husband and I moved into 55 Resort in Windsor in mid-July, with our 9-year-old border collie. We absolutely love it, and the pup loves the dog park, walking/biking trails, and the open spaces surrounding us where she can run and catch frisbees. (The dog wash, not so much.) The people in the front office are so warm and welcoming and do everything possible to make living here comfortable and convenient. They sponsor all sorts of activities for the residents - movies in the theater, book club in the library, all sorts of board and card games in the game area, and outside we enjoy the pool, hot tub, fire pit, garden area and lots of outdoor games. Our favorite thing here is happy hour in the pub, where we get to know our neighbors. I haven't tried out the well-equipped gym yet, but I plan to very soon. Really.
As with all new buildings there is bound to be a glitch or two. We had a problem with our air conditioning, and management took care of it almost immediately. One of the best things about living here is that cable tv, Internet, and utilities are all included in the rent payment, which is so convenient!
We made a good choice moving here. If you're 55 or older and looking for a place to retire (or not) and remain active and engaged, you should definitely check it out.
