If you are ready for a “maintenance-free” and move-in ready living opportunity within steps of an entire Community of Care, then Independent Living at The Cottages at Bethany, is the answer to your quandary. In 2019, the Board of Trustees by faith embarked on yet another quest to meet the Mission to “Serve” in the expansion of the continuum of care by the provision of Independent Living on the same campus as the Assisted Living Community of Care provided through The Lodge at Bethany. Phase I of the decision to expand into Independent Living was completed in November of 2019 and since that time, the nine (9) Cottages that were completed have been blessed to have full occupancy. Phase II has since been completed, offering an additional fourteen (14) Cottage homes.
Each Cottage is a single-story, handicapped accessible 1205-1300 square foot residence, and provides all-inclusive pricing to give the Residents the independence they choose and the assurance that any needs for future assistance will be on the same campus.
