One Price, Total
Peace of Mind


What makes Resort Lifestyle Communities different from most independent retirement communities is that all services and amenities are included in one monthly price with no buy-in fee. That means residents can truly relax and enjoy all that life has to offer!

Aging in Place,
Made Effortless


Our communities are thoughtfully designed so residents can settle in and stay—comfortably, confidently, and on their terms. If additional care is ever needed, residents can contract with reputable third-party in-home healthcare providers for support right where they live.* It's just one more way we help you age in place, without compromising the lifestyle you love.

Quarry Ridge Reviews

We visit family members who live at Quarry Ridge. Dale and Shelly have been extremely helpful and supportive of us and our family members who are residents. They go the extra mile and just make things there better. I am super grateful for their management.
Terri Whitney
Always clean, and the staff is friendly and helpful. [name removed] loves it there.

My sister has moved into Quarry Ridge Retirement last week. It fits her needs the best. They had everything she needed right there as far as the staff cleaning and all the meals. It was just a very nice place. The person who was managing and doing the tour was very informative. We tried the food, and it was a five. I had one meal, but it was very good as far as quality and presentation.

My wife and I stayed at Quarry Ridge for 10 days. The first 3 were complimentary, the rest we paid a very nominal fee. This gave us the opportunity to see if we liked what they had to offer. Dale and Shelly (managers overseeing it) were amazing! The staff were all helpful, friendly, and provided great service. There was always something going on - we joined in trips to a pool and winery; enjoyed happy hour several times, and enjoyed karaoke. Now the amazing thing - everyone was friendly - we had dinner and breakfast with so many interesting people. This is truly a great place!

I have been at Quarry Ridge for just short of one month. I am happy to report I have been very pleased. The staff and residents are so friendly, helpful, and welcoming. They offer different activities you can choose to try. The weekly menu has a nice variety of choices, has healthy options, and is very tasty!! Selling your home, uprooting from a life you've lived, and leaving a community you've lived in for many years can seem overwhelming, but choosing Quarry Ridge has made this a great choice!!

Quarry Ridge was great to work with plus a great facility. Highly recommend them. The facility is not inexpensive but my loved one really enjoyed her time there. Good meals and comfortable accommodations. The property managers are very compassionate and really do try to work with you.

We have a good team that shows up to make a difference in our residents’ lives. I love the residents living at Quarry Ridge. They are so welcoming and friendly. I am grateful to be a part of this special community.

We were there as a guest. Everyone was so nice! We loved the billiards room and the food was amazing! If we needed anything, Dale and Shelly (the management team) helped us! The area is beautiful and definitely the place to retire.
Emma Lee
As an employee at Quarry Ridge Retirement Community, I value not only the amazing staff and managers that I work with on a day to day basis, but also the wonderful residents that live here. The main focus here is to create an environment that feels like home and make everyone feel included as if we are one big family and I believe that they have accomplished this. The residents are really what makes my job so enjoyable. They know how to put a smile on my face and they are always appreciative of all that the staff do to make their experience excellent. Management is extremely organized, and it is a great environment to be able to work in.

It's been a great Independent senior living option for my parents that I would recommend.

To say that we are grateful for Quarry Ridge is a huge understatement. My parents lived in a beautiful home on the water for more than 20 years until suddenly they needed to move. We had no idea what to do or where to go. I’ll never forget walking into Quarry Ridge. The moment we walked through the doors we knew it would be our parent’s new home. Upon meeting the residents and people who work there, it seemed impossible that they were as genuine as they seemed. In reality, they’re even more genuine. Dale and Shelly go way above and beyond their duties. I don’t ever wonder or worry how my parents are because I know that they are happy and cared for by their new family and friends who reside at Quarry Ridge.
Jessica Tillmann
The only way you can feel the magic at Quarry Ridge is to come see and feel it. It’s real and everyone is so pleasant and helpful. From management to all the staff and the beautiful friends you make here is all just a visit away. 😊
Jan Selke
We could not be more appreciative of the staff at Quarry Ridge. They are flexible, accommodating, extraordinarily compassionate, thorough, and professional. Lisa, Shelly, and Dale are phenomenal individuals who welcomed our parents in with open arms. We went from being overwhelmed with this transition to excited for them, and we are grateful that they will reside in a beautiful, well-appointed, clean, comfortable, and safe community. Thank you so much, Quarry Ridge!
Heidi Sigmund
My aunt is super happy and wishes she moved sooner. She loves they offer individual garages, valet parking her car, food has been outstanding, the pt team showed her how to use their equipment to do her exercises from an outside pt, she is making lots of friends and feels like the staff might be the nicest people she has met. She is happier than she has been in years!

I LOVE being an employee at Quarry Ridge and with the RLC company! The resident experience is first and foremost here. My job is to show families all the wonderful things the community has to offer. I take great satisfaction from learning that our new residents are happy with the choice they made in Quarry Ridge and with the confidence they granted me.
lisa ackerman
My folks were living in a nearby independent living community and found out about Quarry Ridge from a resident who had moved there. They took a tour and were instantly impressed with the people and the facilities. All arrangements were made soon thereafter and they moved in about 9 months ago. This was a fantastic move regardless of the efforts that it takes for a 90+ aged couple to pack up and set up a new home. The entire staff at Quarry Ridge are fantastic, which makes it so comforting for us to know that our parents are well cared for in a safe environment. The food and facilities are top of the line, we could not ask for more. And to top it off, there are daily events that keep them busy and having fun. What a blessing to help ensure their daily enjoyment. Thank you RL Communities for your commitment to providing such a wonderful environment.
Glenn Littman
Great place to live. Good food, good activities, helpful friendly staff.
Bob Knutson
I recently toured the facility and was very impressed. The facility itself is beautiful and boasts many amenities. More importantly, though, the staff were wonderful. Lisa was welcoming and professional. She was clearly knowledgeable and was able to answer all of my questions. All of the staff that she introduced me to were equally kind and welcoming. Everyone was smiling, including all of the residents I encountered. Quarry Ridge seems like a lovely place for older adults and I encourage anyone exploring options for their loved ones to give it a hard look.
Anna Chapman
Live good in a nice community with lots of nice people. I enjoy every minute I'm there. Take a tour u will be amazed.

My loved one is a current resident at Quarry Ridge Retirement Community and our experience with this facility has been great so far. The staff at this facility are very courteous. The cleanliness and friendliness are great. Everything has been wonderful. Quarry Ridge Retirement Community is an excellent facility. I would highly recommend this facility to family and friends.
Anonymous
I would recommend it based on our experience so far. Senior Living Consultant [name removed] has been amazing to work with from showings, to moving in and helping make sure you have a great experience after moving in. We picked this community, because it was a 3BR available immediately was biggest factor. It was warm, welcoming environment and building, quality of meals, valet car service, recommendation of people we know who live there and emergency alert transponder for all residents.

Quarry Ridge Retirement was beautiful, wonderful, and new. They had everything anybody could want. The rooms had a stove, a refrigerator, a washer, a dryer, and a microwave. They had a salad bar. They offer three meals a day. The young man who toured us knew everything, answered any questions, and showed us everywhere. The menu looked delicious. The facility is only a year old, so it's practically brand new. They are not 100% completely finished. They showed us the beauty salon, exercise room, and library. It was just very nice.

I love it here - the meals, friendly people, listening staff, cleanliness, and washer/dryer in our beautiful apartment! They have a gym and library. The apartments are cleaned every week. It's actually very delightful here. I could walk to Target and to the grocery store and to Goodwill. We have help with everything we need in the apartment like hanging pictures, emptying the car, loaning beds and wheelchairs, and things until we can get our own stuff. It's just a delightful place!

This place is beautiful and the food is SO good! To top it all off, the staff is very friendly and accommodating. It is always a pleasant experience when I am there to visit my grandma.
