Benefits & Features


No Buy-In or Entrance Fees
The residents of Riverside Lodge enjoy all the benefits of a retirement community, without paying an entrance fee or purchasing an apartment. Many retirement communities require an entrance fee or a buy-in plus a high monthly maintenance charge. Those entrance fees may be only partially refundable and the buy-in or purchase of your unit may one day leave you or your family with a time consuming sale.
