Aspen Trail Retirement Resort

Aspen Trail is a premier senior community here in Colorado Springs! My mother-in-law had lived in another senior community in the southwest part of the city for nearly 12 years before moving to Aspen Trail last December. Change is hard at any age, but everyone at Aspen Trail made Mom feel welcome and made the transition for her and for us as easy as possible. Connie, Kaitlyn, and Sterling lead a wonderful team of caring, thoughtful, friendly people who go out of their way to make life for everyone in the community a great experience. The residents at Aspen Trail are wonderful, welcoming people and they are an important part of the excellent experience Mom had there. The food is delicious and family is always welcome to join for meals and the many activities. In addition, the facility is lovely and beautifully maintained. Due to her advanced age and a more rapid decline in health than anticipated Mom was only at Aspen Trail for 6 months before she had to transition to assisted living, but during her time there Kaitlyn, Sterling, Connie and their team did everything they could to ensure Mom's happiness, health, and safety, going above and beyond when needed. This is an outstanding community and I strongly encourage others to make it their first choice.

As the Executive Chef of this community for the past 6 weeks, I can confidently say it has been an absolute pleasure working here. The residents and staff have created a welcoming and enjoyable environment that truly makes it the best place to be.

I love it here. Wouldn’t want to go anywhere else!

In love with how my loved one is taken care of. The staff are very professional but very caring, not too stiff kind of people. Thank you for taking care!

This place is amazing. Truly great people from residents to staff! Highly recommend Aspen Trail!

The residents are wonderful people.

I just started about a month ago, I love working here! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming. amazing service and top-tier food! Kaitlyn and Sterling are super friendly and helpful, the servers are so kind and the residents are so sweet, kind, and friendly!

this place is absolutely beautiful, definitely one of the nicest retirement communities i’ve seen!

A very friendly place to be.

The residents are very friendly and I enjoy passing by them and talking about life. The nights here are quiet but enjoyable because of the environment of the building. Really clean and lively place.

Although we are not at Aspen Trail Retirement Community any longer because our son wanted us to be close to him so we moved out here and could not find a place just like Aspen Trail So we bought a house and while searching on the internet the other day we come across Glen Meadows Retirement Community and drove over there and talked to Miss Shelly. Well, the thing is when we walked in there everything was just like the one at Aspen Trails . Shelly had said that it was fairly new and had been built about 6 months ago .Had we known that it was going to be here we would have maybe rented something until they became available . Now we have to sell this house before we can move in there .But we are so looking forward to the day that we can do that. With all the amenities that are offered there and 3 meals a day +snacks to include ice cream and popcorn it is so worth every penny that you pay to live there .All the staff are very friendly and very helpful when you need something if they do not have the answer they will look into and find out for you. It was the same way at Aspen Trails in Colorado Springs Co. Todd and Ann are the only 2 names that I can remember for now at Aspen Trails ,but there were several others that were there that took care of things like the maintenance guy and the maid that came in and cleaned to the cooks who prepared all those awesome meals .It was all so wonderful and we are so looking forward to it again once we sell this house and can get in and settled in to start enjoying retirement once again .

I have worked at Aspen Trail for the past 2 years and I thoroughly enjoy it! I'm 52 years old and I can truthfully say this is the first job I've ever had that I look forward going to. The residents here are the main reason for that! It's like one big family. They play games together, put puzzles together, go on outings in our shuttle, and support each other. It's also great to hear their life experiences and meet their families. I could go on and on. It's a wonderful place to work and live!

The residents are super sweet and family-like. The community is very beautiful. Management is awesome!

I Love this community everyone is so welcoming and friendly and the staff is very helpful it's a very nice place.

I am a 16 year old that just got there first job at Aspen Trails, I go to school full time and having a establishment that will work around what I need to get done is perfect, I do a lot of things outside of school as well and they can make a flexible schedule around my needs. This new management is amazing and always there to help.

I've had the pleasure of working here for over a year now, and I would like to state how amazing the staff is as well as the activities which are provided. Our residents and guests can find a welcoming environment as well as a passionate team of people who are willing to go above and beyond.

This place is awesome! The residents here are nice and funny and they always have fun activities going on! The workers here work really hard to make sure the residents are doing okay and that they are content!

Residents are all so so sweet. Management is very respectful. Workers are very loving and friendly. All new-comers are very welcomed as well.

Beautiful property with amazing amenities!

A Great Place

We love this place!!!!!

Love love this community!

Aspen Trail is a Fantastic Community ! ! I have lived here for over 2 years, and am so thankful I left my previous Retirement Community. The staff is great - so focused on service. A weekly maid assigned for my housekeeping gives me a chance to make specific requests for housekeeping on that day. The Food is phenomenal - great variety of offerings for every meal. In my time here, I only contacted the Chef about 3 items which didn't taste right. The breakfast provides many options, including individual orders for eggs. The bus provides 2 days for transport to Doctor or other appointments, and 2 days of shopping at individually requested stores. Healthcare providers come at during the month, plus frequent Blood Pressure checks. The Community Manager is always approachable, and knows everyone by name. I can't think of any area that they don't handle with first-rate service ! !

I am an 82-year-old lady alone and I am looking for an income that my senior plan covers

My mother is currently a resident at Aspen Trail Retirement Resort and everything at this facility has been great for her. The staff at Aspen Trail is great. The cleanliness and quality of care are great, also. We finally have my mother in a place that we trust. I would absolutely recommend this facility to family and friends.

I just left after another truly fun and enjoyable visit with my neighbor. She moved in after her husband passed and has found great friends, and great support and we always enjoy great food when I visit. The staff is friendly, helpful, and courteous. This is the best thing my friend ever did for herself and I look forward to moving in one day myself.

Aspen Trail is such a great community. Staff and residents are family. They have a great chef that provides the best quality meals. There’s something going on every hour of the day. The residents are absolutely what makes the community. They’re fun. They're welcoming. And they’re great friends.

My dad moved into Aspen Trail in Feb '21 and lived there for a year. The only reason for the move is we transitioned him to assisted living. The facility is absolutely beautiful, the residents are kind and helpful, and the staff is great. The food is very good with all kinds of extra offerings such as a coffee bar, salad bar, soup, etc. There is something for everyone. Although my dad didn't take part in a lot of activities due to his worsening dementia there is plenty to do. They have a resident workout in the gym every day, happy hours, bus trips, bingo, movies, etc... The staff gets to know the residents and enjoys interacting with them daily. We felt very welcomed there and were sad to leave.

If you like to laugh and feel a sense of community, this is the place to be! The residents are so kind and welcoming toward fellow residents and staff. The people at Aspen Trail are upbeat and positive which makes for a great overall atmosphere. New Managers took over last summer and the improvements they have been implementing are fantastic. The staff isn’t just here to do a job, they are truly here to serve and make a positive impact with every resident interaction. This is apparent as soon as you walk into the beautiful lobby and are greeted with several welcoming smiles. There is always good food to eat and the kitchen is always striving to make the good food, even better! This beautiful new facility is in a great location, right across the street from St Francis hospital and various shopping. Aspen Trail even has a bus that runs 5 days a week for things like group outings, shopping, or medical appointments. I encourage anyone looking for a place, to join our family!

Aspen Trail does not honor holiday reservations. I was unable to dine with my mother on CHRISTMAS DAY, because Todd Smith told her our reservation was scratched due to high demand. I was driving to Aspen Trail, from Denver, when Patti Dillon called to tell me I’d be late if not there by 11. The reservation was at 12:30. I could not make it. THANK YOU Todd Smith, for being such an accommodating host. Merry Christmas.

Great place to visit and live! Professionally ran retirement home! Friendly staff and residents.

This place will ALWAYS have a special place in my heart!!! Took care of my father the way he deserved!!

I’m happy to announce a year ago today I moved into Aspen Trails. So I’m very happy to still be here! For too many reasons to say. I’m greatly appreciative to Leslie for taking many months trying to find the perfect place for my high maintenance needs. I’ve met so many amazing residents and staff over the year. Things seem to be improving this current manager Lanny is one of the best we’ve had managers we’ve had in my opinion. He is always walking around the dining room and asking how everyone is doing he’s very approachable and always in a good mood and whenever I’m downstairs his office door is Always open literally.

I have been working at Aspen Trail since February 2022. The staff has treated me with kindness and respect. I love the residents and my coworkers.

My mom moved into Aspen Trail Retirement Resort in December 2021 and couldn’t be happier! She lives in a spacious one-bedroom apartment with housekeeping and maintenance included which leaves her days open for fun activities like Zumba, Bridge, and movie nights. I know she is well cared for by the amazing staff that takes her on weekly shopping outings and to doctor appointments as needed. She enjoys three delicious meals a day with friends and is eating healthier than ever before. I can’t thank everyone at Aspen Trail Retirement Resort enough for all they do for us!

I was very struck by the professionalism and how courteous the staff is at Aspen Trail. My experience was top-notch. I wouldn't hesitate to have my father placed here. There are countless amenities for the residents and I have yet to see anyone without a smile on their face (residents and staff). Absolutely a fantastic environment and I would recommend ATRR time and time again!

I have had the pleasure of recently touring this beautiful facility. In speaking with a number of the residents, they expressed their love of the living environment, the amenities, activities, and especially the attentive, caring staff there. I highly recommend ATRR for any families of seniors looking for independent living arrangements for their loved ones.

I’ve researched a mot of senior retirement options for my parents recently. The amenities, staff and residents at aspen trail outshined them all. The building was extremely clean, had a very nice lunch with some of residents and they love living there which was so exciting to hear. They raved about all the activities and how friendly the staff and management always is. That their attention to detail to making the residents their top priority was like no other place. I look forward to our future engagements.

As a first responder I have visited and experienced many independent retirement communities in Colorado. Aspen Trail Retirement Resort is among the very best I have seen. From the professional and friendly staff to the outstanding dining, amenities and scheduled activities.

If you or your loved one doesn’t necessarily need medical care but is simply ready to downsize, make life a little easier, and have a full social calendar, Aspen Trails Retirement Resort is the perfect place. Independent residents can enjoy all the amenities of Aspen Trails, including top-of-line dining, transportation, scheduled activities, social clubs, and services like maintenance and housekeeping, while still living independently the way they want to live. If their needs ever change, their staff will be right here to help with care resources. The extremely helpful and professional staff makes this an enjoyable place to live. This is more like living in a top-end resort than a retirement facility. If you are looking at making this move, don't make a decision without looking at Aspen Trails first! Very highly recommend it!

Horrifying experience here. Got thrown out the front door for bringing in my 4 LB. Yorkie in my backpack to visit my mom. Im 62 and The worst part is, my poor special needs brother was trying to hold her and didn't understand the dog needed to be " hidden" from a mean dog hating resident, who happened to see this loving kind autistic old man trying to love on the tiny dog. They (Lisa loeber) lie to get you in, tell you its fine to bring the dog in, then tell you that you are "breaking the rules" by walking thru carrying your dog. Nothing in writing! I was traumatized incredibly. My 87 yr old mother is sick over this and we are moving her out as fast as we can. They were NEVER clear on the "rules", nothing in writing. The corporate site says small dogs welcome. I was able to sit in the dining room with my 4 LB Yorkie in a stroller, with sales manager Lisa's blessing.Then they tell me on wed that only service dogs with papers can come in. Of course this rule just happened to go into place. The day before, lisa told us they were having meetings to explain to the residents why emotional support dogs brought in for occasional visits were ok. All because of this one hateful resident the rules suddenly changed. Lisa then walks me out the front door like a criminal. I want compensation for false advertisement, as seen below.This was very unessesary and extremely hurtful! They are willing to lie inorder to cover their tracks, but there were many witnesses.

Terrible place They lie to get you in, then its all down hill from there. Don't even bother

Very happy with the care and what this provides for my mother of 86. She struggles some with memory and they are very accommodating. Great food, great facilities, guests seem to love it. Activities, exercise programs. Special event days. I recommend. Other reviews are concerning but I would visit and talk with leadership to see firsthand.

Aspen Trail is amazing. Everybody who is there wants to be there. Whereas at other places we toured, the people looked like they were there because they had to be there, including the workers. Both the staff and the residents at Aspen Trail seem to love it there. It's basically a one-stop shop, with a bank, physical therapy, home health, and doctors who come and visit you in your apartment - it's all in-house. The apartments are very nice and spacious. They're brand new with updated appliances. There are also plenty of activities - they always have something going on.

Great attentive staff, fun residents & amazing food in a top-of-its-class resort. 10/10!

My daughter and her Girl Scout troop friend held a cookie booth inside Aspen Trail Retirement Resort! The staff was truly sweet and nice to us from the moment we first walked in and the kitchen staff spoiled the girls! It’s a very beautiful top of of line retirement resort! The girls kept telling me how big and beautiful it was there and they loved the fish pond as well! Both girls enjoyed their cookie booth experience there!!!

The appearance of this facility, upon entering, is breathtaking. A huge koi pond and a pleasant aroma greet you and catch your senses. It's truly different than other retirement homes in that it doesn't seem like you're actually in one. With a bank, hairstylist, activity center, and plenty more. there are a lot of amenities for the residents to take part in. The dining facility is large and bright and the menus are outstanding. I strongly urge you to give Aspen Trails a good hard look if you are considering a move for yourself or your parents. The staff is friendly and you won't be disappointed with all the options available.

You have to visit to appreciate the facility's wide hallway, bright rooms, amenities (eg, salon, and more). Walking through, it seemed like an upscale resort with an indoor mall. The most outstanding feature for me was the dining/food operation--incredible menus, restaurant-like atmosphere, available at all hours. This was the first retirement facility where I immediately felt comfortable.

I had the privilege of touring this community a couple of different times. I brought my mother to tour with me also. Every time I was there, the friendly staff and happy residents were more than willing to share their experiences. The sense of pride from the workers and the warmth I felt in the facility were always evident. Although I have not convinced my 91-year-old mom to move here from Arizona, I would not hesitate to have her reside in this well-maintained community.

I recently had a chance to visit and tour this beautiful facility. I was very impressed with the building, amenities, and hospitality of the staff. I even had a chance to speak with several residents during dinner one evening. Everyone had nothing but positive remarks for the food, activities and staff.

Recommend Aspen Trail Retirement Resort. Friendly staff and a lot of functions for the residents!

As someone who has worked in senior living for a long time, I can honestly say this is the best place I have ever worked for! I love it so much that we moved my mother into one of our sister communities in Albuquerque! So blessed to be a part of RLC!! ❤️

I had an opportunity to tour the facility recently. I was astounded to see how welcoming the environment was, from both staff and residents. The facility's operations seemed very orderly and well-kept. Overall I love how the residents were treated in my observation walking through with integrity and dignity. Over the years I have learned that walking through these types of facilities within the first five minutes you have a pretty good understanding of how the facility operates! Great job keep! Keep up the great work Aspen Trail!

You can tell that the staff and admin truly care about their residents. In particular, Danielle Luna has been devoted to her residents for 10 + years, I’ve seen firsthand how she puts their needs first and is a true advocate. I would highly recommend it.

I highly recommend this place! The staff are so kind and welcoming and the residents are fabulous.

Have seen quite a few similar properties None measure up to this one. Many amenities but most of all is the wonderful staff. They make it a great place to be.

I love this community! The residents are so much fun! They are so genuine and caring. They make the effort to welcome every person coming into the building. The dining staff is amazing! Customer service is spectacular and the Chefs that are working going above and beyond to make sure the quality of food is incredible! Scott( maintenance director) has such an amazing way of connecting with the residents and is above and beyond at his job.

Fantastic food, and a great group of residents who are welcoming to visitors! I love how attentive the staff and residents are to activities as well. The facility is top-notch and has a great ambience. 5 Stars!

I like this community and it was very comparable to the community that I am in now. This was a close second for me. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and willing to show me around.

My wife and I moved to Aspen Trail a few days after the facility opened in November 2020. Each day we find ourselves increasingly satisfied that we made the right decision. The staff, from concierge services, housekeeping, food service, and activities is outstanding. Aspen Trail is a beautiful facility with first-rate staff members. We love it here!

It will be a year on November 3, since our move here to Aspen Trail; not one regret!! We say to each other quite often, that this is the best part of our lives so far, (having just celebrated our 60th wedding Anniversary), and we would not want to be anywhere else. Because we have moved and lived in several states, we can say that truthfully; we love Colorado! Aspen Trail has everything we could need or want, and we would highly recommend to anyone looking for a comfortable and safe place to live.

We've chosen Aspen Trail Retirement Community for my mom, but we have not moved her in yet. What made us decide was the friendly atmosphere, and I think one of the things that convinced her was the way they did their food operation. She really liked the way it was different than the place she currently lives. She likes the way the food was organized. The staff member who walked us through during our tour was very friendly. She answered all our questions honestly and was very forthright. We had a very good experience on the tour. The facility was brand new, clean, attractive. It met all our requirements in terms of size and cleanliness. They have a church on site. They have a bank. They have activities that I think my mom would like. They have a crafts room and some classes that I think she'll actually take advantage of. They've all been wonderfully friendly and choosing to get to know her. They were asking her questions, and they were seemingly very interested in her.

My parents moved in upon opening and I have to say it is fabulous! They are so well taken care of. The entire staff is wonderful and they offer so many amenities from concierge service, valet parking, theme parties, prime rib buffet brunch every Saturday, and so on. I am so happy we found a wonderful place for them to live!

My wife and I carefully explored the options in town for an independent living facility for her parents. We want a comfortable place to be their home with great food, safety, open and well-lit spaces, and opportunities to meet and interact with other seniors. Aspen Trail easily stood out above the others. The salesperson and onsight managers (they actually live there 24x7 and know what is going on in the facility!) spent considerable time with us, answering all of our questions. They are great people, along with everyone else we met. This is a good place to be!

What great employees! Wonderful food! Thank you for the care and delicious Thanksgiving dinner!

We moved in on November 5th and have not stopped marveling, not only at the facilities which are fabulous, but the helpful and very capable staff. Gina and Gary's management style and careful attention to detail make Aspen Trail a truly exceptional place to call home. The meals are outstanding and would easily compete favorably with most of the finer restaurants in Colorado Springs. No institutional cooking here! Compliments to head chef Todd and his team. Building maintenance supervisor, Scott, is also eager to please and meet the needs of the residents. Norma and I cannot be more pleased with our decision.

Of all of the places that we've checked in the surrounding area, Aspen Trail is by far the most impressive! We did not find one negative, and absolutely feel very excited to move here in November. Everything happened very fast, with a phone call from Aimee, then a meeting with Gary and Gina Carter, the very next day! We learned everything we needed to know from these lovely people, and without a second thought, put down our deposit and selected our apartment. Looking forward to a wonderful new way of living in the near future! Would highly recommend to others!

My wife and I visited the rental office and were greeted by Gina and Gary. Clean and welcoming office. Gina and Gary answered all questions involving costs amenities, opening dates, etc. We feel comfortable with our decision to move to Aspen Trail when they open in November. We both feel that COVID 19 protocols are important and appreciate the effective wearing of masks and careful cleaning at all times during personal contacts.
